What type of yoga is best for a beginner who is specifically looking to reduce stress?

by Greenbelt Alliance

Question by cutekiller on "Yoga":

I'm trying to decide between 2 classes being offered locally: Kundalini Yoga and Hatha Yoga. The course descriptions make Hatha sounds a bit more kinetic, but since I'm new to all this I really don't know which is best. My goal is to reduce stress and muscle tension. By the way, I am NOT looking to lose weight.
