In the transition sequence, which pose directly follows exhale Warrior II?

• A. Warrior II
• B. Upward facing dog
• C. High to Low plank
• D. Downward facing dog

Answer: (C)

Transition sequencing in a vinyasa flow is driven by the breath. After you exhale from Warrior II, the next move is to enter the vinyasa by moving from high plank to low plank (Chaturanga). This step lowers you with control and engages the core and shoulders in preparation for the backbend and the next poses. It’s the direct following transition because the flow moves from exhaling to lower, then inhaling to lift into Upward Facing Dog, and exhaling to return to Downward Facing Dog. Holding Warrior II or jumping straight to Upward Facing Dog skips that essential setup, and Downward Facing Dog comes after the Upward Facing Dog, not immediately after exhaling from Warrior II.
