With Ha meaning “sun” and tha meaning “moon,” Hatha yoga is a path toward creating balance by uniting opposites. Utilizing a sequence of physical postures (known as Asanas) we develop a balance of strength and flexibility. We also learn to balance our effort and surrender in each pose. Hatha yoga asks us to bring our attention to our breath, which helps us to still the fluctuations of the mind and be more present in the unfolding of each moment.

In Taoist philosophy, the qualities of Yin are dark, calm, passive and deep. Based on these principles, Yin Yoga uses passive postures held for longer periods of time to allow for deep opening in the connective tissue of the hips, pelvis and spine. Meditation may be used. Yin Yoga can be practiced by any level of student. However, Yin-Yang Yoga classes will alternate quiet restorative poses with intense flow sequences and require a higher level of fitness.
