Drop-in Classes and Hatha Yoga Programs

Relax Your Body and Open Your Heart

Discover the Essence of Hridaya Hatha Yoga​

At Hridaya, we embrace a contemplative approach to Hatha Yoga. Our practice involves performing postures slowly and gently, holding each one at length to deepen its benefits. It goes beyond physical stretching to fully engage with the gross and subtle energies while integrating the non-dual vision. In each pose, your focus shifts inward to witness the body, energies, and interplay of thoughts, emotions, and sensations—all while pondering the wonderment-question “Who am I?” This approach strengthens the connection to your innermost essence, the Spiritual Heart.

Our ongoing Hatha Yoga drop-in classes are open to all, offering a rejuvenating experience for beginners and advanced practitioners alike. Whether you’re looking to ignite or enhance your practice, these sessions invite you to experience the beauty and transformative power of Hridaya Hatha Yoga.

Join us at our center in France for classes in French, in Mexico for classes in English and Spanish, and in Romania for classes in Romanian (English/Hungarian/German upon request).
