In Hatha Yoga practice, students will explore traditional asanas with a focus on proper alignment, conscious breathing, and mindful movement. The practice helps create balance between Sun and Moon energies, developing harmony between strength and softness, stability and flexibility.

Along with covering the philosophical part of Ashtanga Yoga, you will also learn the primary series of Ashtanga Yoga Asana. Not only the asana practise, but one will also learn to instruct along with counts in Sanskrit and opening and closing mantras. Below is a brief weekly schedule.
Surya Namaskar A and B
Standing and Seated Sequence
Seated and closing sequence
Mysore style and teaching practice
Along with Ashtanga practice, one will also be trained in Vinyasa Flow which covers the Hatha Yoga postures. The idea here will be to train the students on how to create the flows with proper sequencing for a peak posture or any theme-based flows like arm balancing, hip opening etc.

This class will be focused on understanding the basic alignment of the body in asana and variations that can be incorporated for making the asana less or more intense to ensure that when you teach you can give set of instructions that suits all level of practitioners.
