Virabhadrasana (Warrior pose)

Stand up straight with your feet a meter apart. Flare out your right foot with an inhalation, raising your hands together overhead. Exhale, bend forward, moving your hands in front, while lifting your left leg from the floor so the body forms a T-shape. Hold for as long as is possible, breathing normally. Return. Repeat for other leg.

Avoid: If trying yoga for first time. This is an advanced balancer, and needs to attempted after practicing simpler one-legged stands.

Sequence: You can place it with the entire series of warrior poses to create a perfect flow.

Benefits: Stamina-builder, it also boosts concentration.
