OHM Hatha yoga

Connect to your body and mind with Hatha yoga

Strength, flexibility and immersion

Hatha is best known as the “classic” yoga style, where you perform one pose at the time. In Hatha yoga we stay in the poses a little longer, which gives you the opportunity to adjust, to strengthen and to gain more flexibility in your body.

Hatha yoga takes place in the non heated room.

WHAT IS HATHA YOGA?

Hatha yoga is a traditional form of yoga that integrates breathing techniques and physical postures to create balance between body and mind. Originally developed in India, hatha yoga is a practice suitable for all levels. It includes a variety of poses, known as asanas, that stretch and strengthen the body while improving flexibility. More than just physical exercise, hatha yoga is considered a holistic practice that also supports mental and spiritual well-being.

The philosophy of hatha yoga is rooted in creating harmony between body and mind through physical practice and meditation. Compared to more dynamic forms of yoga, a hatha yoga class is typically slower and more meditative. In hatha yoga classes, the focus is on building strength, enhancing flexibility, and promoting relaxation through a combination of breathwork and yoga postures.

Hatha yoga can be practiced by people of all ages and fitness levels. It is not only a workout for the body but also for the mind. By focusing on breathing and body awareness, participants can develop a deeper connection with themselves, gaining clarity and inner calm. Each hatha yoga class can be tailored to individual needs and abilities, which is exactly what we strive for here at Ohmyoga.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HATHA YOGA AND VINYASA YOGA?

If you’ve ever wondered what hatha yoga is or how it differs from vinyasa yoga, you’re not alone. Both styles offer unique benefits, but they cater to different needs and preferences.

Hatha yoga is a slower-paced practice that focuses on holding poses, breathing techniques, and mindful alignment. It’s ideal for beginners or anyone looking to deepen their connection with their body and mind.

Vinyasa yoga, on the other hand, is a more dynamic and flowing practice, linking breath with movement in a continuous sequence, perfect for those seeking a more energetic and cardio-focused session.

At Ohmyoga, we offer a variety of hatha yoga classes and vinyasa yoga classes, allowing you to explore both styles and find the practice that suits you best. Whether you join a hatha yoga class to cultivate balance and relaxation or a vinyasa class for strength and flexibility, our experienced instructors guide you safely and mindfully.

Discover the difference for yourself. Book a class today and experience how hatha yoga and vinyasa yoga can each enhance your physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.
