Gentle and Relaxed Practice
Hatha Yoga centers the breath, controlled movements, and alignment. Both new and returning yogis find ease from its slower pace and tender approach.

mental clarity and calm
improved posture and strength
better circulation in the body

It is not recommended to practice yoga:
before strength training
less than 2 hours after a meal
