Hatha Yoga is a form of yoga in which the balance between body and mind is sought primarily through physical exercises, breathing exercises and meditation.
Hatha Yoga is probably the best known and most traditional form of the numerous types of yoga. In this form of yoga, the balance between body and mind is strived for. You can achieve this with the help of precisely executed postures (asanas), breathing exercises (pranayama), meditation (dhyana) and deep relaxation (savasana).
In Hatha Yoga, the positions are taken slowly and held for a comparatively long time. In general, a Hatha Yoga class stretches, aligns, stabilizes and strengthens your body, while at the same time training your balance, body awareness, ability to focus and concentrate, and introspection.
Due to the gentle exercises and the use of yoga aids, the body-oriented training is particularly suitable for beginners and the untrained, as well as for anyone who is looking for more connection to their own body.
