What exactly Hatha yoga actually is hasn’t changed for thousands of years. However our thinking and perception of it certainly has. Language is a powerful thing, and in different cultures the same word can have a variety of definitions. Throughout the evolution of yoga practice, the same word – Hatha – has come to mean different things too.
Popular thinking ‘in the West’ (an all-too-common expression now), is that Hatha yoga is about balancing the body and mind. ‘Ha’ represents the esoteric sun, and ‘tha’ the moon. The practice of Hatha yoga aims to join, yoke, or balance these two energies.
A yoga class described as ‘Hatha’ will typically involve a set of physical postures (yoga poses) and breathing techniques. These are typically practised more slowly and with more static posture holds than a Vinyasa flow or Ashtanga class. And indeed, that is how we describe our Hatha yoga classes on EkhartYoga.
Literally however, Hatha means ‘force’ and is more traditionally defined as ‘the yoga of force’, or ‘the means of attaining a state of yoga through force’. So Hatha yoga can be considered as anything you might do with the body, including:
asana – yoga postures (practised in any style of ‘yoga’) pranayama – breathing techniques mantra – chanting or reciting mudra – hand gestures shatkriyas and shatkarmas – cleansing techniques types of visualisation. Mark Singleton – author of ‘Yoga Body’, and a Senior Research Fellow at SOAS London University – spoke at a lecture I attended. He remarked; “what’s physical and what’s not is up for question. No matter what one does, isn’t it all physical?”. . 𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐈𝐧𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 & 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐃𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐬: Website: https://aatmyogashala.com/ Call OR WhatsApp: +91-8445993766 E-mail: [email protected]

What Is a Sun Salutation?
Surya Namaskar, aka the official Sanskrit name for sun salutations, is a sequence of yoga poses (or asanas, we should say) that are typically performed at the start of a Hatha or Vinyasa flow class. There are many variations on this sequence, but sun salutations A and B are the most common, both of which we’ll come to in a moment.
Translated from Sanskrit, Surya means “sun,” and Namaskar means “to bow down to” or “show gratitude.” In ancient tradition, sun salutations were used by Hindus during morning prayer and worship rituals. Over time, they’ve evolved to become a key part of conditioning the body, and calming the mind,1 helping yogis disconnect from the distractions of daily life and enter a meditative state ahead of their practice.
The poses involved in a sun salutation depend on which variation you’re performing—sun salutation A contains fewer poses and is often the go-to for beginners, while sun salutation B contains a longer sequence of slightly more challenging poses, such as chair pose and warrior I. Both sequences are designed to engage, stretch, and invigorate the whole body while keeping the focus on meditative breathing. So whichever you opt for, you’ll reap a bounty of benefits.
