Yoga originated nearly 5,000 years ago. It is studied as a philosophy, method or discipline that teaches physical health, mental clarity and spiritual consciousness. Our ability to connect globally increases everyday through technology. Yoga helps the individual to connect with themselves and all that surrounds them.
Hatha Yoga takes a physical approach to finding bodily health, mental clarity and spritual consciousness. Hatha Yoga uses the asana-s (postures) and pranayama (breathwork) to develop a greater awareness of the physical body, a union of body and mind. An individual's ability to concentrate or focus becomes greater. As these three unite (postures, breath and concentration) a deeper awareness of mind, body and spirit is revealed. The physical, mental and spiritual aspects of an individual become more balanced, more harmonious.
A yoga practice brings the entire body into balance. You will learn techniques to improve your breathing, physical strength and flexibility, and reduce the adverse effects of daily stress. Through the connection of the body, breath and mind the whole person can discover steadiness, ease and calm in their daily life.
