Like you, I'm in teacher training and have been compiling a list of poses with sanskrit names.
I was looking for "Upward Table" and then found that on alot of sites it's called Crab Pose - which is is different than wheel. See http://www.yogabasics.com/seated-backbends/crab-pose.html
Nice explanation using the posture pose regarding Urdhva Dhanurasana that gives the basic idea on it with its terminology, Thanks for the share...
