HATHA YOGA & HATHA FLOW
Hatha is the most common branch of yoga practiced in the United States. Hatha is derived from the Sanskrit words for sun (Ha) and moon (tha), which suggests the goals of balance and harmony between opposites. It is considered the mother of many other forms we know today. In the Hatha classes at The Yoga Place you will find a focus on breath and alignment with an emphasis on allowing your body to move through the postures gently.
CLASS DESCRIPTIONS
The Hatha Flow classes are appropriate for any level of yoga with a basic understanding of the postures. You will develop self-awareness and a calm mind along with increased flexibility and enhanced state of well being.
VINYASA YOGA
This vigorous style of yoga consists of a continuous series of postures which are linked together with fluid connecting movements. Vinyasa is the marriage of breath and movement. The practice is synchronized with careful attention to breathing to build internal heat. Expect to feel cleansed, recharged, and more alive!
