Hatha yoga is also called traditional yoga. In the word hatha, "ha" means the sun and "tower" means the moon. It represents the balance between men and women, day and night, yin and yang, cold and heat and any other two complementary opposites.

After the application of this concept, it means that by exercising the same flexibility and strength of the two poles of the body, it will enter a state of balance. It also represents keeping the balance between the left and right brain, so that the logical and arithmetic left brain can live in harmony with the creative and intuitive right brain and play a balanced role.

In yoga, breathing through the right nostril is called the breath of the sun, while breathing through the left nostril is called the breath of the moon. It is very important for all hatha yoga practices to keep breathing smoothly in some way.

Hatha yoga system starts from posture, which is different from the traditional "eight-point method", so it is also called "six-point yoga". Hatha yoga is mainly to practice how to control the body and breathe, and its deeper function is to make the body run in an orderly way, thus making the mind quiet and peaceful. Hatha Yoga in China focuses on posture and breathing exercises, supplemented by meditation and beam closing. This system is taught in most yoga studios and gyms.
