pose of the week: reverse warrior

Welcome back to a whole new week of posing. Last week, we worked our balance with warrior III (how did you like it? did you challenge yourself?) and we hope you saw the beauty & benefit of the whole warrior series + why they're so important to your yoga practice.

We're actually continuing on this week with more warrior action, but in the form of reverse!

The reverse warrior helps build strength in our legs and also helps open up the chest + shoulders, just to name a few benefits. It is highly recommended that you warm up before trying this posture. You can ease into this by starting your day with our February Bonus of Month video. There is no trick to this pose you simply find the stretch in your side body and stay there. If your breath ever becomes shortened, you know you've gone to far. Find the place between ease and effort where your inhales and exhales can flow freely. Live in that place throughout your entire yoga practice and throughout life :).

Check out the pose details below and don't forget to use the audio to guide you into the pose safely.

Have a wonderful week of practice and we look forward to sharing more with you next week!
