Yoga on the Deck Warrior 2 Virabhadrasana 2

Welcome to another week of Zen yoga on my deck.  I decided to expand on the Warrior we did last week.  Warrior poses are my favorite.  I really feel connected to that inner badass!
Please remember to warm up before doing these poses.  No need for injuries!
 
Warrior 2
Start with your feet about 3 feet wide.  As wide as in comfy for you.  Turn your right toe out to the front of your mat and your back or left leg stays pointing forward, even a little bit in.  Whatever is comfortable for you.  Inhale bring your arms up, parallel to the floor and exhale bend the front knee.  Check your knee.  Make sure it's a beautiful straight line with your ankle.  Don't let it go past your toes! Stay tall in your torso, don't lean forward. Hold for 5 breaths. 
 
Exhale drop the arms and come back to the start position.
 
Repeat the whole thing on the other side. 
 
 
I hope this ignites the warrior within!  For a video option click here
Have a great week!
 
Much love and Namaste,
Rachael
