I will begin todays episode by letting you know that this name is appropriately named - it is indeed active!
Although in the warrior family, it does have some differences from warrior 1 and 2, particularly in the positioning of the feet and legs, but we will get to that in a bit. Before I do, I want to discuss some of the benefits this pose has to offer. Active warrior brings both strength and energy to the body and mind; the legs are strengthened and also stretched. There is a beautiful stretch into the hamstrings and also the hips are strengthened and stretched in active warrior. The pose does challenge our balance as well and can strengthen the muscles of the core. Turning to the upper body, the arms are active and strong which brings strength and length to the upper body as well.
