Warrior Poses

In Yoga, Warrior Poses (Virabhadrasana) require strength, steadiness, concentration and focus. They increase body awareness, and improve circulation and respiration, thus energizing and rejuvenating the whole body. There are several variations — Warrior 1, 2 and 3, as well as Exalted Warrior.  All of these poses involve standing, either in a lunge position or on one leg, with arms extended, held straight in various positions, and with muscles active and at the ready. Arms, hands and the gaze can be in various positions. All of the Warrior Poses can challenge our balance (particularly Warrior 3!). Perfecting them can help inspire the confidence we all need to help us be our true, authentic selves.
