3 Common Mistakes to Avoid in Warrior 2

Let’s refine your Warrior 2! 🙌🏻
Yoga teacher Andrijana, @andriyannasflow, will tell us all about improving the foundational Warrior 2 (Virabhadrasana II) today.
It’s more than a pose - it’s about fostering stability and strength from the ground up. Sometimes, subtle adjustments can make all the difference!
Here’s how to fix the 3 most common mistakes in Warrior 2:
1. Front knee collapsing in: Make sure it points forward. If you can bend that low, align it over the ankle.
2. Uneven hips: Focus on lowering and pointing the tailbone down to keep the hips square.
Bonus: This also aligns and stacks the shoulders over the hips!
3. Shoulders and arms not engaged: Keep arms lifted to shoulder height, roll the shoulders away from the ears and slightly pull them back. Then, actively reach through the fingertips to opposite ends of the mat.
🔖 Save these tips for the next time you go to practice your Warrior 2 and share them with your yoga bestie!
