HATHA YOGA
The Foundation of Yoga,
Accessible to Everyone
The word Hatha comes from Sanskrit and brings together two opposing forces: “Ha” (the sun, active energy) and “Tha” (the moon, receptive energy). Hatha Yoga seeks to balance these two forces through postures (asanas) held for a certain length of time, combined with conscious breathing (pranayama).
Unlike Vinyasa, where postures are linked together in a flowing sequence, Hatha Yoga takes time to explore each posture. This slower pace allows you to refine alignment, listen to your body’s sensations, and work deeply — without ever forcing.
It is the recommended style of yoga for complete beginners, people returning to physical activity after a long break, or anyone looking for a calming and structured practice. Daphné also teaches Hatha Yoga in an adapted format for seniors and in nursing homes.
