Yoga Asana Class

Slow Hatha focused on alignment and breath, a gentle approach that will aim to suits your specific body, health and mind needs.

Hatha yoga is often translated as the integration of sun (active, sympathetic system) and moon (passive, parasympathetic system). Yoga does aims for union but the Sanskrit definition of Hatha goes actually deeper : Effort. Hatha is the path of outer yoga in comparison to yoga of the inner path. It therefore represents the first stages of the path, which are physical. This translation also symbolizes the fact that in order to move forward in one's practice or in one's life, one must show hard work and application.
