Description

This course gives you an introduction to the real classical practice of hatha yoga as described in the scriptures. Hatha Yoga is seen as a ladder to Raja Yoga which culminates in the practice of Meditation. For most people Meditation is not possible so hatha yoga is prescribed so by controlling the breath we can control the prana which leads to control of the mind and the thoughts.
