What is Hatha Yoga?

Hatha Yoga is a traditional practice that seeks to harmonise body and mind. Sessions combine postures (asanas), conscious breathing (pranayama) and deep relaxation in order to:

• strengthen and soften the body as a whole

• support the circulation of energy

• soothe and support the nervous system

• cultivate presence to oneself

Accessible to everyone, this practice adapts to each person’s needs and rhythm.

“Yoga is a science devised by the ancient sages of India — not of India alone, but of humanity as a whole. It is an exact science, a perfect and practical system of self-culture.” — Swami Sivananda
