Kakasana comes from the Sanskrit words “Kaka” which means “Crow” and “Asana” which means “Pose”. Kakasana is an intermediate level arm-balancing asana, which you can do after sufficient practice. You have to balance your whole body, on your wrists and arms. The main focus of the asana is on the biceps, triceps, forearms, wrist, palm, and core area. It is the 62nd pose in the 84 Hatha Yoga asanas. You can prepare yourself first, by doing arm strengthening exercises, to be able to balance the whole body on the arms and wrists.
