Hatha Yoga
Hatha Yoga is the basis of all Yoga systems and is the physical part of yoga practice. The word comes from the term "ha" meaning the sun, and "tha" meaning the moon. Hatha yoga unites and balances opposing energy flows within the body. This refers to the sun being positive, and the moon being negative. It emphasizes on asanas (postures), pranayama (breathing) and dhyana (meditation).
Hatha Yoga postures range from basic to advanced. There are nearly 200 asanas, in which only half are known and practiced in the west. Every movement is planned and controlled and is proven to revitalize the mind and body. These exercises strengthen muscles, tone internal organs and improve balance and flexibility. There are lots of benefits when practicing these postures regularly in combination with proper breathing. This includes; stimulating circulation within the body, improving immunity and improving function in the digestive, hormonal, nervous and endocrine systems within the body.
