How To Do The Warrior One Yoga Pose

Video Transcript

Hello, my name is Samantha Raphael on behalf of Expert Village. In this clip I'll be demonstrating Warrior One Pose. To begin, step your feet about three feet apart on your mat. Turn your right foot out, align your right heel with your left heel. turn your left foot in just a little bit. Take your right hand to your right hip and give it a spin towards the front of your mat. Slowly, with a breath out, begin to bend your right knee and you can wiggle that right foot forward a few inches so that your right knee ends up right over your right ankle. Make sure that your left foot is grounded on the inner and outer edges as well as the ball and heel. When you're ready, with a breath in, reach both arms all the way up towards the ceiling, you can place your hands in prayer position and gaze up at your fingertips. Hold here for five breaths, with each inhalation feel your chest lifting and each exhale sink a little bit more, going a little bit deeper, grounding into the earth. After about five breaths, with your next inhale, straighten out your right knee, take your hands to your heart, turn your right foot in, and step back to center.
