The following yoga types practiced in our retreat
Hatha yoga - Hatha yoga is a traditional form of yoga that focuses on the physical aspects of the practice. It involves a combination of physical postures (asanas) and breathing techniques (pranayama) to enhance physical strength, flexibility, and balance. Hatha yoga also promotes relaxation and mental clarity through mindfulness and meditation. It is often considered a foundational style of yoga and is suitable for beginners and experienced practitioners alike. The word "hatha" itself means the union of the sun ("ha") and the moon ("tha"), symbolizing the balance between opposing forces in the body and mind. This form of yoga is a holistic approach that aims to create harmony between the body and mind.
Vinyasa - Vinyasa yoga is a dynamic and flowing style of yoga that synchronizes breath with movement. In Vinyasa yoga, practitioners move through a series of postures in a fluid and continuous manner, guided by their breath. The transitions between poses are as important as the poses themselves, creating a seamless and dance-like sequence. This style of yoga is known for its creativity and variety, as each class and instructor may offer a different sequence.
Ashtanga - Ashtanga yoga is a rigorous and structured form of yoga that follows a specific sequence of postures and is characterized by a strong emphasis on the breath. This style of yoga was popularized by K. Pattabhi Jois and is often referred to as the "Eight-Limbed Yoga" due to its focus on the eight limbs outlined in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali.
Yin - Yin yoga is a slow and contemplative style of yoga that focuses on holding passive postures for an extended period of time, typically ranging from 3 to 5 minutes or even longer. Unlike more dynamic and active yoga styles, Yin yoga targets the deep connective tissues in the body, such as ligaments, tendons, and fascia. The practice is often used to improve flexibility, increase circulation, and cultivate mindfulness.
