Vidyut, for instance, has incorporated it into his kalari sutra workout.

When you do this exercise, make sure you maintain proper balance and stop your legs from falling off the stability ball. Go down on all fours. Place your palms on the floor in line with your shoulders. Lift your legs off the floor and place them on a stability ball. Keep your elbows and knees straight.
