Getting into Scorpion pose from Forearm Stand [1] requires incredible upper body strength, a flexible back and good balance. If you use an exercise ball, it makes this pose so much easier to get into.

If you want a more detailed description

• Lay your belly on the ball and walk your hands out so they're directly under your shoulders in plank position.
• Drop your forearms down to the ground so your elbows are under your shoulders and keep your gaze forward between your hands.
• Let the weight of your body fall into the ball and keep your upper body stable and strong. When you're ready, lift your legs up and work on bending your knees.
• Continue lifting your head and dropping your feet. Stay for as many breaths as you want and then kick your legs back towards the floor. Walk your hands in towards the ball and drop your feet down.

Fit's Tip: Really concentrate on keeping your forearms parallel because if your elbows start to slight out passed your hands, you may end up with a face plant on the floor (which I can tell you from experience does not feel good).
