What is Hatha Yoga?

Hatha Yoga is a traditional form of yoga that forms the basis for many other modern yoga styles. Like a beautifully woven tapestry of conscious movement, alignment, breathing and attention to our internal processes, leading us to inner peace.

At our boutique studio, we customize this holistic approach to yoga practice.

To make our group and individual yoga classes accessible and inclusive for all practitioners.

Enjoy the study of Chiroesence in the AlbaicĂ­n of Granada, Spain, we adapt our classes HathaYoga to offer highly personalized classes.

Our goal is to help our students experience the physical benefits of improved strength and flexibility, while introducing them to the deep aspects of yogic philosophy. Hatha Yoga is an internal journey that invites us to know ourselves better about the body, the mind and our spirit.

In our classes, we explore our limits and learn when to push them and when to respect them. In the end, we leave with more peace, more well-being, and an understanding of how to take better care of ourselves.

Discover various items:

  • Physical postures (Asanas): This discipline involves a series of physical postures and movements that help improve flexibility, strength and balance. These poses are designed to align the body and improve energy flow. They vary in difficulty, so Hatha is accessible to people of all fitness levels.
  • cbreathing control (Pranayama): A key component of Hatha Yoga is pranayama, or breath control. Practitioners learn to regulate breathing to increase vitality and mental concentration. The philosophy behind this is that breathing is intimately connected to our life force, or "prana."
  • Balance and harmony: The name of Hatha Yoga, “hatha”, actually means “strength” in Sanskrit. However, in the context of this practice, it represents the balance of opposing energies within the body. The goal is to achieve balance between the energies of the sun (ha) and the moon (tha), which symbolize the masculine and feminine, active and passive aspects of life.

Besides:

  • Mindfulness (mindfulness) and meditation: it is not just about physical postures; It is also a path to mindfulness and meditation. Through the practice of asanas and pranayama, practitioners prepare their bodies and minds for meditation. The philosophy is that calm and stability of the body and breathing facilitate the concentration of the mind.
  • yoga philosophy: It is firmly rooted in the broader philosophy of yoga, which seeks to unite the individual self (atman) with the universal consciousness (Brahman).

This union, known as "yoga", is achieved through self-discipline, ethical living (yamas and niyamas), physical postures, breath control, meditation and self-realization.

On this journey through yoga practice, we have shared a moment of calm and serenity together.

Yoga is a powerful tool for strengthening the body and mind, and I hope you enjoyed this experience as much as I did.

Remember that yoga is always at your disposal, ready to guide you towards a state of balance and well-being. It doesn't matter if you are a beginner or an experienced yogi.

The essential thing is to find time to connect with yourself through this beautiful discipline.

If you liked this experience, do not hesitate to explore more about yoga and its benefits. Your well-being will thank you! Thank you for sharing this moment of peace and relaxation with me. Namaste!

"I found out about Julio through a friend who lives in Granada and after talking to him a bit about my injuries, he recommended that I travel to Granada to spend time with Julio. At that time, I had already been out of work for almost 2 years, due to injuries I had chronic tendonitis in both elbows, an unexplained problem in the neck area that caused balance and head movement problems and last year I had surgery on both shoulders for subacromial decompression. I traveled from Ireland and spent 4 months in Granada with Julio. Julio was the first professional who did not want to treat the injuries he had. He wanted to find the root of the problem. I reactivate the disabled or dead muscles, I adjust the vertebrae, the spine and the hip. He uses a mixture of precision and strength in his massages which produced absolutely incredible results.He gave me a comprehensive exercise program to maintain this progression and educated me on the relationship between pain and the source of that pain.I cannot co Stop Julio from any professional because there is no one who does what he can do. It's like having an osteopath, physical therapist, chiropractor, massage therapist, acupuncturist in one. Since I returned to Ireland, I have spoken to Julio many times via video, each time he teaches me new self-care techniques. I'm back to work. I continue to manage injuries with what Julio taught me and now I have my life to live. Without the chronic pain. This is all thanks to Julio."

"I had severe neck and back pain but the results of the treatment have been great, it's a pity that I can't follow the time guidelines that he tells me to see each other, because I'm far away. But I'm new and I can do my job normally in the hospitality industry. I thank you because before it was impossible for me to live without pain."

"Like many others, I found Julio through a friend of mine who has been suffering from back pain and has had great results. I work as a nurse. My job involves lifting often overweight patients. At times this job brought me many back problems. Until I met Julio, I didn't think there was another way to solve my problem other than traditional medicine. After a few sessions with him, I already feel better. Many times I arrive with back pain and I get standing without pain after the session. I couldn't be more grateful to have met this person. Thank you very much Julio. An eternally grateful patient."

"I booked a session at Chiroesencia on the recommendation of a friend. He helped me recover from a herniated disc in my lower back after others had failed. Not only that, over more than half a dozen sessions he also identified and solved other problems that were the result of my back injury or prevented me from healing properly. He has guided me through exercises and practices to prevent my problems from returning. Two years later I am still much better than when I started and I have Quiroesencia to thank for that."

"I have been suffering from back pain for many years and going from physio to physio. It was a relief for me to find Julio because my back has improved a lot. He does not focus solely on the muscle in the painful area specifically, but rather understands the body as a whole and observe the different areas of the body (legs, hips, collarbones, etc.) that can cause that pain. I am very happy with his work."

"I was diagnosed with a microcrack in the coccyx and coccydynia (inflammation in the coccyx area). I could not sit down from the pain and the solution that the doctors gave me was surgical intervention or infiltration. Finding out among my contacts, I got Julio's number and I made an appointment for a massage session. In a couple of sessions I began to feel great relief in the affected area and after a while I could sit down and the pain subsided until it disappeared. There is no better feeling than not feeling pain. I feel very happy."
