About Sarvangasana
Sarvangasana or Shoulderstand, or more fully Salamba Sarvangasana, is an inverted asana in modern yoga as exercise; similar poses were used in medieval hatha yoga. Many named variations exist, including with legs in lotus position and Supta Konasana with legs wide apart, toes on the ground.
