DREAM & PRACTICE
Hatha Yoga
Hatha Yoga means balance between Sun (Ha) and Moon (Tha) energies. It has the power to transform you into a more balanced and strengthened being.
Hatha yoga is an ideal starting place for people who are new to yoga. One of the more challenging aspects of a yoga practice is combining movements with breathing control, or pranayama. Hatha yoga increases flexibility and strength, improves breathing and quiets the mind. Hatha yoga purifies the body in preparation for meditation.
Classes might contain elements of Vinyasa or Yin Yoga.
