Hatha Yoga with Samantha
Unite body and mind with a Hatha Yoga Class, suitable for everyone from complete beginners to experienced yogis including injured warriors looking to return to the mat. Every week Samantha will guide a yoga practice themed with one of the five elements (earth, water, fire, wood, metal) and their associated energies.
Hatha yoga is the perfect way to begin and extend your yoga journey. We work with postures (asana) to increase strength, stamina & flexibility in the physical body, cleansing practices (kriya) to cleanse the energy body, breathing techniques (pranayama) to balance the nervous system & hand gestures (mudras) to set intentionality and bring focus.
Class recordings are now available to purchase
Our Hatha Classes are now also available on demand. You can purchase the links for the recordings and explore the classes we have available on our On Demand Classes page.
Samantha says
Hatha yoga is the yoga of activity and includes asana, pranayama, mudras, bandhas & kriyas.
The ultimate goal in Hatha yoga is to achieve Samadhi – state of freedom from attachments, ego and the illusion of the material world.
“Yogas chitta vritti nirodha” – Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, 1:2
Yoga stills the fluctuations of the mind
What to expect
Our Hatha yoga classes begin with a short meditation, an opportunity to step into the present moment and set an intention for your practice, before moving into sun salutations encouraging warming and opening throughout the body.
You will be gently guided through a series of postures, with stillness between each, encouraging curiosity to flower as we observe ourselves with compassion. At the end of practice we take a longer meditation relaxing into expanded awareness.

I just wanted to say thank you for the Water element Hatha yoga. As always, it was a super lesson and very reflective of my needs at the moment.
