Day 5: Warrior I

In honor of Mother’s Day, the rest of this week’s poses focus on some variation of “Warrior Pose.” Every mom is a warrior in some way: whether it’s the carpool warrior, or the single mom, each one has their strengths.

Day 4: Bridge Pose

Also known as Setu Bandha Sarvasana, this is also a favorite pose of mine. Sadly with this one, there is no modification for the chair (that I’m aware of).
