Asana: Your Physical Practice

In exploration of asana (our physical practice experienced through yoga postures/poses), we are able to invite the advantages of proper alignment and depth to engagement into the practice.  Within the member portal, you have access to a library of asanas/postures that have been broken down with alignment and engagement aspects highlighted for the learning yogi in us all.

Reverse Warrior  /  Viparita Virabhadrasana 

  • Reverse Warrior is an open-hip, standing posture
  • Stack the front knee over the front heel
  • Press the blade of the back foot into the mat
  • Extend the front arm skyward, perhaps also towards the back of the room
  • Create space through both side bodies
  • Be mindful of any 'crunchy' feeling through the ribs.  
  • Rise up taller if you are feeling constricted of breath or if you have lost space on either side of the torso
  • Keep the pelvis leaning upright and create space in the front hip crease
