Answer 
Hatha Yoga traces its origins especially to Gorakhnath, the legendary 11th-century founder of the Kanphata Yogis, but it grew out of yogic traditions dating back at least as far as Patanjali (2nd century bce or 5th century ce), author of the Hindu classics the Yoga-sutras and the Mahabhasya (“Great Commentary”).

Dear Katheek
Hatha Yoga has ancient roots in the yogic traditions of India. The term "Hatha" is derived from the Sanskrit words "ha" (sun) and "tha" (moon), symbolizing the union of opposing forces. The practice of Hatha Yoga focuses on balancing these dualities, aiming to create harmony within the body and mind.
Thank You!
