"One of my favorite descriptions of Hatha is “That 70’s Yoga”—basically, Hatha is what we in the western hemisphere picture when we imagine yoga and it’s generally the base for any type that teaches physical asanas (poses) and breath work."
Hatha is considered a gentle yoga style due to a slower, manageable pace with a high focus on alignment. Becaus of this, it is an excellent choice for beginner and seasoned yogis alike.
