Akasha Yoga (Genève)

Hatha yoga is the best-known form of yoga in the West. In general, it's a practice based on postures (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayama) and relaxation.

Hatha Yoga aims to unify the energies of Ha and Tha through the union of breath and mind. It balances the cooling energy of the moon (THA) with the heating energy of the sun (HA).

Hatha Yoga, while retaining the same goal, differs according to the school it is taught by. Among the best-known are Roger Clerc's Yoga de l'Energie, BKS Iyengar's Yoga and Integral Yoga, which adds meditation.

Each practitioner should feel free to choose the style that suits him or her best, the philosophy with which he or she is most at ease, and let his or her own intuition guide him or her along the path of discovery that is yoga. In our classes, we propose an approach that blends different and complementary styles, aiming to lead the practitioner towards greater self-knowledge, a more serene mind and a better quality of life.

To better connect you with your own inner energy, some classes include a meditation at the end of the session. Balance between physical and mental strength, union of the individual and the universe. Postures are adapted to each individual's level.
