granchio/ponte
"clavette" in English is "clubs".
From Wikipedia: "the performance of five separate routines with the use of five apparatus — ball, ribbon, hoop, clubs, rope — on a floor area, with a much greater emphasis on the aesthetic rather than the acrobatic".
It may be a yoga position, the prone position (granchio), or on one’s back (ponte).
