Learn to do flying pigeon by breaking it down into 4 steps! This is my all time favorite arm balance pose and one of the first ones I ever learned. You need strong shoulders, a strong core and some open hips in order to achieve the pose. Start in standing pigeon, then drop your palms to the floor in chaturanga arms, pick up the back leg and slowly extend back. The key here is to lean your head and chest far forward to take the weight out of the lower body. The more weight you can put into the arms the easier it will be to get the hips high up!

Keep practicing and be patient, these things take time :)
