Extend your arms straight in front of your body. Drop your left arm under your right. Bend your elbows, and then raise your forearms perpendicular to the floor. Wrap your arms and hands, and press your palms together (or as close as you can get them).
Lift your elbows and reach your fingertips toward the ceiling. Keep your shoulder blades pressing down your back, towards your waist.
