Through the practice of Hatha Yoga, the body becomes more pure, healthier and stronger, while the quality of concentration and meditation improve significantly.

After a Hatha Yoga session, you can expect to feel relaxed, rejuvenated and peaceful.

In our classes, the movements of the body (postures) are linked with yogic breathing; techniques that cleanse the body and direct energy mentally. Equal attention is given to the steadiness and comfort of the posture and the cultivation of the yogic breath, to allow the construction of a carefully balanced yoga practice.

Yoga Health / Back Pain is a series of yoga postures and stretches developed by Maria van der Meij, owner and instructor of the Yoga Path, for the alleviation of back pain caused by spinal misalignments and injuries of the deep back muscles and inter-vertebral discs.

Maria suffered from severe back pain and muscle stiffness as a young child and into her early 20's. By turning to the practice of Hatha Yoga on a daily basis, she discovered it was more effective than any other form of exercise for the treatment of her back pain.

Hatha Yoga specifically tailored to alleviate back pain, when practiced regularly, increases blood flow to the nerves and tissues that support the spine; promotes good posture and proper alignment of the vertebrae; strengthens the deep muscles of the back that surround and support the spine and allows you to be more conscious of movements that can hurt your back. Yogic breathing techniques also relieve nerve and muscle tension and promote health and relaxation in the mind and body.
