Warrior 3 Pose/Virabhadrasana 3 Pose

This weeks’ yoga pose is Warrior 3/Virabhadrasana 3. When doing Warrior 3/Virabhadrasana 3 with kids remember to never push them past their abilities and be very careful with this pose as it’s easy to get hurt! Each week, 2-3 days, we do a 15 minute yoga work out in my home daycare. Kids from 1 1/2 to 4 do this and while each does as much as they are able and in a way they are capable of they all get a nice stretch, a scheduled work out time, and some fun new body movements. We do the sun salutations and then add a few jumps, hops, new yoga pose, and teacher assisted somersaults at the end.
