What is Yoga?
Yoga unites, “yokes”, the mind, body and breath in re-establishing an integrated awareness
of our wholeness as human beings. Yoga traditionally is an ashtanga, or “eight-limbed”,
approach to wake up the body with mindfulness channeled through the nervous system.
Yoga postures called “asanas” are one limb of yoga.
Hatha yoga, often referred to as “yoga of the will”, harmonizes or balances seemingly
separate states. Each asana or posture incorporates action and relaxation, strength and
surrender, movement and rest, and expansiveness and release.
