Virabhradhrasana II

Warrior 2 is an amazing time to work on strength-building and personal growth! Warrior Poses are an excellent opportunity to incorporate affirmations, like “I am Capable!”

Use Warrior 2 to improve balance, strengthen legs, and build core strength. Children will also develop their self-confidence, as they focus on their affirmations. 

This pose can be found in Superhero Statues and Imani’s Moon.
