Ever wondered what the difference is between Yoga and Pilates?  Or maybe you think there isn’t

much of a difference?

This workshop will explore the similarities and differences between Yoga and

Pilates through a practice of Yogalates. This will combine the yoga focus on mind and body

awareness – strength, stamina, flexibility and balance – with Pilates techniques to improve posture

and focus on developing a strong core to create a stable foundation for everyday movement.

The workshop will flow through a sequence designed to be challenging but fun.  Yoga and Pilates

props will be used to provide support and modifications will be offered, making it suitable for all and

mixed abilities.  Come along and learn how you can complement your yoga practice with a fusion of

Pilates for improved strength, core stability and flexibility.
