Description

Warrior 2 looks simple, but it's one of the most commonly misaligned poses in yoga—leading to quad burn, knee pain, and hip pinching. In Part 1, we break down why traditional cueing fails and how to adapt this foundational pose for YOUR body.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why "square your hips" is anatomically impossible for most people
• Heel-to-heel vs. heel-to-arch: which stance works for your body type
• How to engage hip stabilizers (the "rotator cuff of the hip")
• Weight distribution secrets that make the pose sustainable
• Strap techniques that completely change your experience
• How to protect your knees by working smarter, not harder

Plus: The mythology of Virabhadra, Shiva, and Sati—and what it teaches us about transformation and choosing our path.
