Hatha Yoga Classes in Pretoria

Hatha relates to the physical aspect of yoga and encompasses the yoga postures, breathing techniques and meditation. The Sanskrit word Hatha itself means Ha (Sun) representing masculine and Tha (Moon) representing feminine. The purpose of Hatha yoga is to bring about a balance of these qualities in the body. When these aspects are balanced we reap the benefits of these energies leaving us feeling physically strong and energized with mental calmness and clarity. Creating a harmonious and happy you.
