In Warrior II, how are the arms positioned?

• A. Arms overhead
• B. Arms to a T
• C. Arms by the sides
• D. Arms crossed

Answer: (B)

In Warrior II the arms extend out to the sides at shoulder height, reaching in opposite directions so the line from fingertip to fingertip is horizontal. This matches the description of arms to a T, which is exactly how the pose creates its open, expansive stance and strong angular line through the torso. Arms overhead would lift the pose into a different alignment (more like Warrior I or a high-lunge variation), not Warrior II. Arms by the sides would collapse the outward reach and the sense of expansive energy. Crossing the arms would distort the open, stable line the pose aims for.
