"The arm bridge balance is stolen from swing dancing. Two hand balance, lift hands, putting your left hand behind your own head, and right hand behind partner's head. Release hands, and slide among arms to catch right hand to right hand. For a video, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCvb6LwVQ2s&t=19s
