Kripalu Yoga

Kripalu Yoga is a form of Hatha and Raja Yoga. Hatha yoga is a yoga that primarily focuses on the physical benefits of yoga, while Raja yoga introduces a meditational aspect of yoga. One important aspect to strive toward is creating a deep, inner stillness. Stage 1 introduces you to yoga. In Stage 2 of Kripalu Yoga, you begin to hold the postures and stretches longer. In Stage 3, you sink into meditation and allow your body-mind, spirit, and emotions to guide you through yoga.
