Malaika began her session with two strong rounds of Veerabhadrasana (Warrior I), progressing into Viparita Virabhadrasana (Reverse Warrior) with effortless grace. She transitioned into Utthita Parsvakonasana (Extended Side Angle) and a more advanced variation, Baddha Utthita Parsvakonasana (Bound Extended Side Angle). The next part of her flow featured the challenging Parivrtta Parsvakonasana (Revolved Side Angle) and Parivrtta Virabhadrasana (Revolved Warrior). Her practice ended with Chaturanga Dandasana (Four-Limbed Staff Pose) and Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose).
Why Malaika's Warrior Series Is More Than Just a Workout
Each pose Malaika performed targets different physical and mental faculties, making this a holistic workout. Warrior poses are compound movements that engage multiple muscle groups – quads, glutes, calves, and core – promoting muscular endurance and strength that translates into everyday movement. These poses demand grounding and balance. Holding and transitioning between challenging poses sharpens attention, quiets mental clutter, and instils a meditative rhythm.
For those tied to desks or devices, this routine is a powerful antidote. It releases tension in tight hip flexors, elongates the spine, and opens up the chest to enhance lung capacity and breathwork.
Whether you're a seasoned yogi or just starting, Malaika's routine offers something for everyone. Of course, always check in with a certified instructor or your healthcare provider before incorporating new routines into your practice.

In a world where most love affairs start with swipes and likes, Swedish forward and alternate captain for the Vegas Golden Knights William Karlsson and his girlfriend Emily Ferguson are the living proof that sometimes, a basic Instagram DM can alter your life forever. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The couple have created a life for themselves that mixes red carpet glamour with rink-side toughness, and it all began in the most contemporary of fashions—on the internet. From DM to "I Do": A modeday romance Emily Ferguson rolled the dice in November 2017. William Karlsson had recently gotten its first-ever team, and while Emily Ferguson was clueless about hockey, she knew William Karlsson had something special. So she took a shot.

From Vegas Golden Knights victories (and defeats) to Halloween costumes as pop icons—Harley Quinn and the Joker, Thor and Loki, even Bret Michaels and his groupie—Emily and William's love was always fun and passionately devoted. A Cinderella wedding and a new chapter By the end of 2020, the pair made it official with a proposal on a hike. They celebrated the love with a fairy tale wedding in July of 2022, attended by 175 guests and lots of glitter. Only months after getting married, the pair revealed that they were having their first baby. Baby Beckham was born in May 2023—and within a month, he was in his father's arms as Karlsson won the Stanley Cup for the first time in his life. It was a sports high point from a professional standpoint. From a family perspective? Magic. In June 2024, Emily announced the family was expanding once again—this time with a second baby boy. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now "Beckham is going to be the BEST Big Brother???," she swooned on Instagram alongside sonogram photos. Baby Lars Maxwell Karlsson arrived that November. Their romance is drenched in Vegas style—glamorous, frenetic, a bit surprising, and crazily passionate. Emily, the peppy, sparkly Bachelor veteran, and William, the stoic, calm Swedish hockey sensation, somehow managed to make something both grand and intimate. Whether it's spending quiet picnic afternoons with their pup Obi or taking their sons on the ice after a championship victory, the Karlssons are making family the best team in town. From social media flirtation to wedding altar—and now two baby boys after—William Karlsson and Emily Ferguson are gliding through life, hand-in-hand, with the type of love tale that might only happen in the city of lights, love, and late-night Elvis impersonators. Also read: Love, laughter, and the long game—William and Emily's romance is proof that the true fairy tale isn't really winning the Stanley Cup.
