Warrior I, II & III in Yoga

Reviewer The knee-hyperextension warning alone makes this worth the watch -- genuinely safety-minded teaching.

Moderator A full, focused Warrior III tutorial with two teachers demonstrating -- modification with blocks, foundation cues, and a clear progression through arm variations. Entirely on-topic for the sub-skill.

Reviewer Smart progressive teaching method - isolates the hard part first.

Moderator Warrior III (by its Sanskrit-adjacent name) taught with a genuinely smart progressive drill breakdown before the full pose.

Reviewer Clear, structured, and genuinely beginner-accessible.

Moderator Systematically covers all three warrior poses in one guide - exactly the sub-skill as named.

Reviewer Clear progressive build with a genuinely useful cue (hip as fulcrum).

Moderator Entirely Warrior III instruction, breaking down setup, base, fulcrum point at the hip, and full expression of the pose.

Reviewer The 'T-shape' cue alone makes this worth watching -- clear, progressive, and forgiving of wobbly balance.

Moderator Entirely focused on Warrior III, walked through step by step: standing leg setup, weight shift, hands on hips, straightening the standing leg, arm variations from hands-on-hips to airplane to full reach, plus explicit balance tips. Squarely on-topic.

Reviewer Offers real modifications for beginners, not just the ideal form.

Moderator Covers all three warrior poses with alignment specifics and modifications.

Reviewer Clear, detailed, and it actually explains the why, not just the what.

Moderator A dedicated compare-and-contrast tutorial on Warrior I, II and III -- exactly the sub-skill. It spends real time on hip orientation differences (closed vs open), the 90-degree knee target, and common form issues like leaning forward in Warrior II.

Moderator Squarely about Warrior I, specifically the back hip and knee, one of the more debated details of the pose. Right skill.

Reviewer Good fix for a common Warrior I mistake, with a clear reason why.

Reviewer Clear, correct cues for getting into Warrior II.

Moderator Squarely Warrior II - foot alignment, heel-to-arch line, arm position moving into the pose. Right skill.

Reviewer Clean, clear cueing on both sides.

Moderator Dedicated Warrior III breakdown from crescent lunge with full alignment cueing on both sides.

Reviewer Names the mistakes people actually make and tells you how to fix them.

Moderator A clean, dedicated breakdown of Warrior I, II and III in sequence, each entered from downward dog with clear foot/knee setup and common-mistake callouts (knee rotating in, arms going lazy, hip squaring expectations). Exactly the sub-skill, well organized.

Reviewer Thoughtful, well-reasoned take on a real cueing debate.

Moderator Squarely about the Warrior I to Warrior II transition, whether to pivot the feet or leave them planted. Right skill.

Reviewer Sharp alignment cues — worth a rewatch once you've got Warrior 1 down and want a smoother move into Warrior 2.

Moderator This is a straight teaching clip on moving from Warrior 1 into Warrior 2 — front knee tracking over the toes, back thigh firming, the back foot sealing down, shoulders stacking over the hips, and the gaze landing on the front hand. It's squarely about this pose pairing and doesn't wander into anything else.

Reviewer Excellent, thorough alignment teaching.

Moderator Dedicated Warrior 2 alignment tutorial: feet, knee tracking, hip tension of opposites, shoulders, foot pressure. Only II of the three but covered deeply.

Reviewer Good fix in here for the classic belly-dropping-forward mistake in Warrior 2.

Moderator A full walkthrough of Warrior 2 from setup — stance width, front knee bend, keeping the heel under the knee, tucking the tailbone to keep the spine tall, hip rotation, arm extension, and where to send the gaze. It stays on this pose from start to finish.

Reviewer Good use of props for beginners, but the verbal explanation is a bit muddled.

Moderator Iyengar-style Warrior III tutorial explicitly designed for those who find the balance challenging, using props.

Reviewer Excellent, well-cued Warrior II teaching.

Moderator Straight-up Warrior II tutorial from the foundations series. Knee tracking over ankle, back-foot integrity, shoulder spiral, even both sides. Sits squarely inside the Warrior I/II/III sub-skill.

Moderator Squarely the Warrior I to Warrior II build - feet staying put, hips rotating, torso following, arms out. Right skill.

Reviewer Simple, correct walkthrough for building Warrior II.

Reviewer Solid, thorough Warrior I instruction.

Moderator Warrior I built from the runners lunge, full standing series. Back-foot plant, knee stacked over ankle, the hip-squaring debate. Core of the Warrior sub-skill.

Reviewer Excellent, well-built Warrior III foundation.

Moderator Full foundational teach of Warrior III, built ground up from a runner lunge. Skill is Warrior I, II and III and this nails III squarely.

Reviewer Excellent, precise warrior cueing from a credible teacher; no fluff that matters.

Moderator Peaceful Warrior / Shanti Virabhadrasana practice. Warrior II and Peaceful Warrior are the centerpiece, with detailed cueing (front knee over ankle, length through both side bodies, the hip-elbow-wrist-fingertip line) plus extended side angle. Squarely about the warrior family.

Reviewer Correct but bare-bones -- a quick cue sheet, not a full lesson.

Moderator Short clip entirely dedicated to Warrior III -- stance, weight shift, arm reach, core engagement, hip squaring. Nothing else competing for airtime.

Reviewer Good engagement cues, slightly rambling.

Moderator Tips video specifically on engaging the back leg through Warriors I/II/III. Directly serves the sub-skill, even if it is a refinement supplement rather than a from-scratch how-to.

Reviewer Good bones for a Warrior tutorial, but the language barrier will lose a lot of viewers.

Moderator Content is in Hindi but unmistakably a dedicated Warrior I/II/III walkthrough -- clear repeated references to Warrior Number One/Two/Three, a 90-degree knee angle, and hand/foot placement and transitions between the three poses. Structurally this is exactly the sub-skill.

Reviewer Solid alignment info, just wrapped in a confusing labeling system.

Moderator Explicitly billed as the Warrior series and delivers real cueing for Warrior I (front knee at 90 degrees, squared hips, tailbone tuck, arm variations) and Warrior III (weight shift forward, back leg lifted and straight, squared hips, core engagement). Warrior II gets skipped over in this excerpt despite being promised in the title, which knocks it down a bit, but it's still squarely a dedicated Warrior tutorial.

Reviewer The 'if it's jelly, you're not engaging' line is worth the watch alone.

Moderator The best of the batch: Warrior 3 (with an airplane modification offered) leads into a genuinely well-cued Warrior 2 — 'take your hands to your hips, push — if it's jelly you're not engaging, engage the space between your hip bones' — a real, memorable alignment cue, not filler. Reverse Warrior follows immediately. This is dedicated, substantive teaching of the pose family within a fast flow.

Reviewer Nice sequence, though the detail on form cueing is unclear from what's given.

Moderator A flowing sequence through Warrior I, II, III plus reverse and humble warrior -- squarely on topic and then some.

Reviewer Specific, useful alignment cues for Warrior III - good teaching within the flow.

Moderator Genuinely includes repeated, cued Warrior III work (hip rotation down, bending and straightening the standing leg) on both sides within a balance-focused flow - real, if not exclusive, Warrior III instruction.

Reviewer Good teaching of Warrior II specifically, but partial scope.

Moderator Covers Warrior II specifically (good) but pairs it with Triangle pose which is unrelated, and doesn't cover Warrior I or III - only partial coverage of the named sub-skill.

Reviewer Solid teaching, but don't expect real Warrior III here -- that's a mislabel.

Moderator Warrior 1 and Warrior 2 get proper dedicated cueing here -- arm position, hip alignment, shoulder rotation warning, hold times. But the 'third' pose taught is 'Dancing Warrior' (a backbend/arm-reach variation), not true Warrior III (Virabhadrasana III, the standing balance/T-shape pose) -- so it only really delivers two-thirds of what this sub-skill needs.

Reviewer This is the kind of cueing that fixes a wobbly Warrior 2.

Moderator One of the stronger entries — Warrior 2 gets actual alignment cueing (spin the back heel down, open through the hips, keep the front knee tracking open, soften the shoulders) immediately followed by reverse Warrior with a clean transition. It's still embedded in a longer vinyasa flow, but the cueing quality for the pose itself is genuinely useful.

Moderator A quick, plain description of the Warrior 2 shape — wide stance, front knee bent, back leg long and strong, arms wide, gaze over the front hand, heels roughly parallel. It stays on this pose the whole way through, just briefly.

Reviewer More a visual reference than a lesson — the shape shown is correct.

Reviewer High-quality Iyengar cueing, but not obviously warrior-pose-focused here.

Moderator An intermediate Iyengar class that includes warrior poses, but this excerpt is dominated by general shoulder/spine cueing rather than warrior-pose-specific teaching.

Reviewer Interesting context and benefits, light on how-to cueing.

Moderator Focused specifically on Warrior III -- one of the three named poses, covered in depth rather than the full set.

Reviewer Decent cues, but you're getting it as part of a bigger flow, not a dedicated lesson.

Moderator Warrior I is explicitly taught and cued twice within this Sun Salutation B sequence ('inhale, reach the fingertips up high as we come to Warrior I'), though it's one piece of a longer flow rather than the sole focus.

Reviewer Good beginner follow-along with modifications; clear, but not a real alignment lesson.

Moderator Level 1 version of the same warrior-strength practice. Warrior one, two and three are all cued through the standing series, more beginner-paced with modifications. On-topic for the sub-skill but again a full flow, not a dedicated warrior tutorial.

Reviewer You'll walk away actually knowing how to set your feet and hips in Warrior 1.

Moderator This one actually teaches something: a Swan pose explicitly framed as a Warrior 3 variation with real balance cueing, then a proper Warrior 1 entry — 45-degree back foot, front knee bend, arms circling up, hips squared forward. It's still one segment in a broader power flow, but the Warrior cueing is genuine and specific rather than just a pose name dropped in passing.

Reviewer Solid guided flow with clean cueing; great to follow, light on alignment teaching.

Moderator Level 2 power-yoga flow. Warrior I, II, III all show up and get cued repeatedly through the standing series (warrior one square hips, warrior three balance, plus extended side angle/reverse warrior). But it is a full-body strength flow, not a warrior-focused breakdown, so the poses are present among many others rather than the core subject.

Reviewer You'll get the shape of Warrior 2, not the fine-tuning.

Moderator An intense full-body flow that does build a real Warrior 2 / reverse Warrior sequence on both sides, growing out of crescent lunge and one-leg mountain/airplane transitions. The cueing is more about sequencing and flow than a deep breakdown of Warrior 2 alignment specifically (front knee, hip square, back foot angle aren't spelled out in detail), so it's present and legitimate but light on dedicated instruction.

Reviewer Clean, detailed alignment coaching.

Moderator Primarily an Extended Side Angle Pose lesson, but the sequence transitions through and explicitly cues Warrior II along the way, with a nod to the dedicated Warrior II foundations video.

Reviewer Enough cueing to hold the pose, not enough to fix your form.

Moderator A 30-min power flow that does land on Warrior 2 with a real dedicated moment — 'open up Warrior 2, settle into your hips, activate the arms' — plus a reverse-triangle transition out of it. The cueing leans more on breath and reaching than detailed alignment (no explicit knee-tracking or back-heel cues), so it's present and legitimate but not deeply instructive.
