Hatha Yoga Comes to Arnold Contours Express

April 1, 2011 - PRLog -- Contours Express in Arnold is happy to announce the addition of Yoga to our Ladies Only Circuit Gym.

Yoga will be offered Tuesday Mornings at 8:00 AM.  One time class is $10.  6 classes for $50, 10 Classes for $80 or 20 Classes for $140.

Hatha Yoga is the most commonly practiced style of yoga in the United States today. The word hatha is derived from the Indian words for sun (ha) and moon (tha), which is why this style is often referred to as the yoga of “opposite pairs.”

Hatha yoga is a low-impact exercise for the body and mind. It combines different asanas, or postures, with a deep breathing technique called pranayama to promote flexibility, balance and relaxation. With its easy-to-learn techniques and numerous health benefits, this philosophy-turned-fitness craze offers something for everyone.

Hatha yoga differs from other styles of yoga in that it focuses more on breathing and poses than on meditation. The gentle stretches should feel like natural, comfortable positions that flow fluidly into one another at a relaxed pace.
