Candle Pose

AKA Candlestick, Candelabra

The candle pose is a little bit easier than a handstand as the flyer gets to stabilize with their hands while their weight is supported by their shoulders.

Mounting

Have the base lie on the ground with knees up and feet on the floor. Have the flyer stand over the base and place their hands on the base's thighs just above the knees. The flyer can then lean forward and place their shoulders into the hands of the base and kick up into a hand stand. While up it is important to have the base lock their arms to support the flyer's weight.
