Q. What is "Hatha" yoga?
A. Hatha yoga is the foundational discipline on which nearly all other styles are based. In Sanskrit, ha represents the sun and tha, the moon - hence, the practice is designed to bring the yin and yang, light and dark, masculiine and feminine aspects and polarities into balance. Essentially, Hatha yoga brings all aspects of life together. Hatha yoga classes include slow-paced stretching, asanas (postures) that are not too difficult, simple breathing exercises and perhaps seated meditation. Hatha yoga classes provide a good starting point for beginners, who can learn basic poses and relaxation techniques.
Q. What do I need to bring to class?
A. Mats and other props are provided or you may bring your own. Water is available, as well.
Q. What do I wear?
A. Workout clothes, shorts and t-shirts, whatever you can comfortably move and stretch in. We
practice barefoot. Please help those of us with allergies and asthma by not wearing heavy perfumes
or perfumed lotions.
Q. Do I need to pre-register?
A. No, just show up 10 minutes before class to fill out a 1 page form. Please be punctual, as the doors
are locked during class to insure quiet, uninterrupted time for your practice.
Q. What is the cost and is there a contract?
A. Each class is $10 or you may purchase 6 classes for $50. It is recommended to attend 8 to 10
