Virabhadrasana I (veer-ah-bah-drah-saw-nah) or Warrior 1, is the first of the three warrior poses. The hands overhead represents the emergence from the earth by Virabhadra, a being that was created by Shiva to avenge his wife’s death. The front leg is as close to 90 degrees as possible and the back leg is just as engaged to the point where it could hold weight (I’ve had instructors lay on this leg to prove this point).
