Hello, We're planning a piece for an upcoming issue of SWIMMER on the benefits and downsides of yoga vs. Pilates. We'll talk to experts of course, but wanted to see if anyone on the forums had a strong opinion one way or the other. Thanks. Feel free to respond here, or message me privately. Best, Laura

  • I worked with a women who teaches both yoga and pilates last year (Leslie at Pure Movement in Portland) and she recommended pilates over yoga as it is more movement oriented. I have noticed that some of the pilates moves look very similar to a lot of yoga poses. I the pilates classes I took were helpful as part of an overall dry land program.
