Hridaya Hatha Yoga

Hatha Yoga helps to purify the physical, energetic and mental layers of our being and thus creates more harmonious conditions for Self-connection.

Hridaya Hatha Yoga is a form of classical Hatha Yoga practiced in a contemplative style. We often describe this style as meditation in motion. The practice is performed with the eyes closed and we generally hold the postures for longer than other styles of yoga. This helps us to interiorise and connect with the more subtle aspects of our being.

We practice with a non-pushing attitude, striking a balance between effort and relaxation.

Hridaya Yoga

Hridaya is a Sanskrit word that means Heart or Spiritual Heart. It is really just another word that points towards the heart or centre of our being. When we return to the heart of our being, we return home to our true self. Hridaya Yoga supports practitioners in this reconnection to our true self.

When we reconnect to or open our heart, we reconnect to the intuition of our heart and slowly we can develop the courage to live from the heart. We begin to open more and more to the fullness of life, embracing both joy and sorrow in equal measures.
