The scorpion pose or vrischikasana (sanskirt meaning scorpion posture) is a [[yoga]] position and variant positions where the body is balanced in a [[handstand]], on the forearms, or on the chest with the body raised, the back arched, and the legs bent.  

A variant of this bends only one leg, with the other leg straight in the direction the head is facing.
