Hatha Yoga

Yoga is a Sanskrit word meaning union - the joining of our physical body, mind and spiritual consciousness. It is an ancient system of physical culture which is both scientific & philosophical, though not a religion.

Hatha for Ha (Sun) + Tha (Moon) Yoga is a union of opposing forces. The Sun or Ha Energy is practised in the Asanas or postures; whilst the Moon or Tha Energy is practised using the Mudras (Seals), Meditation Pranayama (Breathing techniques) & Relaxation. Hatha Yoga is a wonderful combination of these opposite energies which include gentle stretches to release tension, postures to align the body & enhance Energy flow, breathing techniques to further promote the energy flow of the body & relaxation to settle the nervous system & calm the mind.
