The word yoga means "union" in Sanskrit, the language of ancient India where yoga originated thousands of years ago. We can think of the union occurring between the mind, body and spirit.
Hatha is a Sanskrit word that means several things. Ha represents the qualities of masculine, solar, or energizing. Tha represents the qualities of feminine, lunar or relaxing. Hatha yoga is the union of opposites through physical practices.
Yoga is not a religion.
Practicing yoga poses(asanas) along with breath work(pranayama) can transform any individual physically, mentally and spiritually. The benefits are endless.
