Hatha yoga is practiced at a slower pace, with focus on the breath, controlled movements, and stretching. Vinyasa yoga focuses on connecting the breath to your movements, which tend to be set at a faster pace. In a vinyasa practice, you can expect to stay in a constant flow of movements.

Vinyasa and Hatha yoga are both styles of yoga, but they differ in their approach and focus: Vinyasa Yoga: Vinyasa yoga is a more dynamic and flowing style of yoga. It emphasizes linking breath with movement, creating a smooth, continuous flow from one pose to the next. Vinyasa classes often include sequences of poses that vary in difficulty and intensity, and they can be quite physically challenging. The pace of a vinyasa class is typically faster than that of Hatha yoga. Hatha Yoga: Hatha yoga, on the other hand, is a broader term that encompasses many styles of yoga. It focuses more on individual poses (asanas) and breathing techniques (pranayama). Hatha classes may include holding poses for longer periods of time, and there is less emphasis on flowing from one pose to the next. Hatha yoga is often seen as a gentler and more accessible form of yoga, suitable for all levels of practitioners. In summary, while both vinyasa and Hatha yoga involve physical postures and breathing techniques, vinyasa is more dynamic and focuses on flowing sequences, while Hatha is more about individual poses and may involve holding them for longer periods.

Hatha and Vinyasa yoga incorporate many of the same poses. The main difference is the pacing of the classes. Vinyasa moves at a faster pace and requires greater breathing control than Hatha yoga. Because it's done more slowly and poses are held for longer, Hatha yoga allows for more stretching.

Over time, the term Hatha has become more synonymous with a strong physical practice that energetically encapsulates more stillness, precision and alignment while Vinyasa has been used to encapsulate a more physical practice that incorporates flow, rhythm, and breath.
