Hatha
Yoga is a Therapeutic style of yoga that uses familiar yoga poses
to create a deep opening in the muscles around the spine. Core tensions
in the body begin in the muscles around the base of the spine and then
affect the rest of the body. Hatha Yoga begins by
releasing the muscles around the tailbone and then carrying the changes
through the sacrum, lumbar vertebrae and the rest of the way up the
spine through the shoulders and neck. As the spine begins to release
tension, the effects radiate throughout the entire body. The result is
a definite reduction in muscular tension. The body feels supple, new and
flexible. |

We focus on
alignment, using props and holding the pose a little longer to help the
student relax into the pose allowing the pose to have an effect on the
student. We support the muscle tension allowing for a deeper release
into the pose. This style of yoga is very approachable for every body.
And while it is a therapeutic form of yoga and really can help heal many
types of injuries and illnesses, people without a health issue will also
receive many benefits from practicing Hatha Yoga . |
|
In each class we
incorporate all 5 yoga angles; forward bend, backbend, side bend,
inversion and twist to benefit the whole body. We utilize twelve themes
that focus on different areas of the body while still focusing on
opening the body from the tailbone up the spine. |
