Hatha Yoga: This is the traditional style of Yoga, the origin of all other yoga practices today. The word Hatha is a combination of two words ‘Ha’ meaning “Sun Energy” and ‘Tha’ meaning “Moon Energy” representing two principle energies flowing within our body. When these two aspects of one’s self-are integrated, a fullness of the whole personality is experienced. Hatha yoga brings balance.
