What is Hatha Yoga ?
A Hatha Yoga class consists of meditation, pranayama (breathing techniques), surya namaskara (sun salutations), asana practice (yoga poses) and relaxation (savasana).
Hatha Yoga is the physical practice aspect of yoga. "Ha" means "sun" and "Tha" means "moon". In Hatha yoga we strive for creating balance between the solar and lunar energies within our being, solar energy being the more activating one and the lunar energy being the more soothing and relaxing one.
A Hatha Yoga class is a balance between effort and ease leading to lots of physical, energetic, mental and spiritual benefits.
Traditionally, Hatha Yoga should be practised along with other limbs of yoga (8 limbs of yoga), which include some ethical guidelines that we should incorporate into our daily lives.
