As requested, a headstand step by step!  This is how I learned and its the first inversion I learned (besides shoulder stand).
First things first, make sure your elbows are shoulder width apart, and the cup your head in your hands. You should be positioned on the crown of your head, but your weight will be supported on your arms.
Once you’re comfortable, push into downward dog and walk your toes as close to your elbows as possible. You can spend a couple breaths here.
Bringing one knee in at a time, with a teeny tiny kick, lift yourself into a little pod. I used to stay here for as long as possible while I was learning so I could get used to balancing.
When you’re ready, begin straightening the legs. Make sure you stack ankles on top of hips on top of shoulders. It helps to tuck the tailbone in. This will also help with the balance.
As you get stronger in the posture you can then try lifting, instead of kicking, with straight legs right off the floor.

ATTENTION ALL GIRLS: We ALL know that the lower stomach is one of the very hardest places to burn fat and tone.
These are some terrific exercises to do in the morning and at night to burn those hard to tone areas!
Do this every morning when you wake up, and every night before you sleep. I guarantee you’ll see results in a week flat!

Liking and reblogging for future reference!

Oh man, my old soccer coach used to make us do the top left one

Used to do these in ballet class.
