Have you ever paused to wonder about the story behind Virabhadrasana, or Warrior Pose? It’s one of the most iconic shapes we teach and practice, yet so few know the mythological roots that give it true meaning. In this episode, I share the epic story of love, rage, devotion, and transformation that birthed this powerful pose. This tale is one I’ve wanted to tell for a long time, and I hope it brings fresh depth to your practice and teaching.Episode Highlights:The background behind creating more story-based yoga episodesIntroducing Virabhadrasana (Warrior Pose) through the myth of Shiva and SatiExploring Virabhadra as a manifestation of rage, devotion, and sacred purposeA dramatic retelling of the story from Shiva’s grief to the rise of the warriorHow each of the three warrior poses maps onto the narrativeWhy understanding the myth enriches how we teach and embody the poseAn invitation to bring this myth into classes, workshops, and training spacesA call for listener feedback to inspire future myth-based yoga episodesWaitlist for the Online 300-Hour Yoga Teacher Training (launching January)Sequence Smarter – The Living Body of AsanaFor teachers living in India, reach out to Janessa at [email protected] for special local pricingJoin our mailing listFind all the resources mentioned in this episodeConnect with us on Instagram
