London pilates class

yohm Pilates

yohm Pilates is utilised along side yohm Yoga during our healthy Golf and detox weekends and and is also available to you one-on-one with yohm.

The essential difference between Pilates and Yoga is that Pilates works on the principles of isometric movement and Yoga upon the plain of elongated movement. Meaning that Pilates focuses on one muscle group at a time and exercises these in ‘Isolation’ to others. Ideal for treating certain types of injury and strengthening weakness in muscle groups required for a particular action such as a golf or tennis swing or taking to the ski slopes.

Yoga as it were, seeks total body movement and is fluid in its form. Yoga also combines the additional wellness concepts of the important development of breath and mind as well as the stimulation of reflexology and acupressure points. Many feel that yoga provides a more optimal ‘total mind/body’ practice and that’s why we have chosen to make it our focus.

As to which one is better for you or you prefer, why not book a yohm Pilates class and you decide. Both are truly wonderful forms of physical stimulation.
