What is the difference between Kundalini yoga and Hatha yoga?

| By | Category: Hatha Yoga

I want to know what is the real difference between these 2 types of yoga?
Any difference in poses? Which one is more stretching? Which one is more energetic?

Anyone can describe what a session in a Kundalini class is like?

Thanks!

Hatha yoga is a particular system of Yoga introduced by Yogi Swatmarama. Hatha Yoga is one of the two branches of Yoga that focuses on the physical culture. (see Wikipedia) Hatha yoga is known as "yoga of posture"

Kundalini yoga focuses on psycho-spiritual growth and the body’s potential for maturation, giving special consideration to the role of the spine and the endocrine system in the understanding of yogic awakening. Kundalini is a concentrated form of prana or life force, lying dormant in chakras in the body.(see Wikipedia) Kundalini yoga is known as "Yoga of awareness".
