Hatha Yoga

      Hatha means very tenacious practice which is done until the objective or the end is achieved. Forcefully habituating the body to achieve a certain posture for typical benefit is called Hatha Yoga. Hatha yoga is a term derived from eastern philosophy and has its extension up to the western world. Hatha Yoga connects the body with the prana. It creates harmony between the body and soul through Asanas and Pranayama.
Benefits of Hatha Yoga:
1. Hatha yoga helps in the awakening of Kundalini Energy which is in dormant stage in the Muladhara Chakra.
2. It is most marvelous means of  stretching, exercising and purifying the body due to which our life becomes long and healthy.
