🧘♀️ Pilates vs. Yoga: Different Paths, Similar Intention 💚
Pilates and Yoga are often grouped together and while they share important benefits, they’re not the same practice.
Here’s how they compare 👇
PILATES
• Core-focused strength
• Apparatus + mat based
• Precision + control
• Functional movement for daily life
• Injury-aware & supportive
YOGA
• Flow + holds
• Mat-based practice
• Spiritual & energetic elements
• Emphasis on stillness and surrender
• Breath-led sequencing
✨ Where they overlap (and why people love both):
✔ Breath
✔ Balance
✔ Flexibility
✔ Lengthening
✔ Posture
✔ Mindfulness
✔ Stress relief
Different methods. Same goal:
Helping you move better, feel better, and live with more ease.
