  • To learn the Reverse Warrior pose, watch the video above for a demonstration by Denise Austin.
  • Hold the pose for 30 seconds on each side.
  • Breathe deeply while holding the pose.
  • Adapt the pose to your level of fitness. For example, do not dip as low if you have trouble holding the pose, or keep your legs closer together if you are having trouble balancing.
  • Try other Warrior poses, Beginner Warrior and Exalted Warrior, as part of your yoga routine.
Why

Have you tried the Beginner Warrior and Exalted Warrior poses? Then you may feel ready to try the Reverse Warrior pose. This pose will strengthen and stretch your arms, torso, hips, groin and legs, and will improve the flexibility of your spine, chest, ankles and inner thighs.

 

Denise Austin will show you how to do the Reverse Warrior pose.
