Pilates or yoga? - AA (15th Jun 2024 - 18:59:49) Hi Looking for a group beginners class... did pilates about 15 years ago for a while but not sure that counts! More than happy to join a mixed age class of course but I'm in my late 30s so not wanting a class specifically meant for seniors! Daytime is actually more doable right now but early evening may be possible. Thanks

Re: Pilates or yoga? - Jen (16th Jun 2024 - 10:36:02) There are lots of great teachers in the area. Try Zannah Charman Lambert or Angela Thompson.

Re: Pilates or yoga? - Pauline (16th Jun 2024 - 16:34:57) I go to a yoga class on Monday mornings at Millennium Centre at 9.30. Slow and controlled moves, giving lots of stretch. Small class. Rachael is a really lovely instructor.

Re: Pilates or yoga? - annehall (17th Jun 2024 - 07:29:03) There is also a class run by Rachel on a Thursday evening from 6p.m. -7p.m at the Liphook Day Centre, Peak Centre, Midhurst Road. for those interested.

Re: Pilates or yoga? - Local (17th Jun 2024 - 21:33:05) Not sure, but perhaps one is a means of channeling Hindu or Buddhist religious energy while the other is a form of postural stretches practiced by mainly middle class westerners who find jogging a little too exerting and feel the need to do stretches in groups with someone wearing a mike shouting "up, lift higher girls, up, up hold, I said hold, hold and one two three shake it all out and breathe!" while bad 1990's music deafens everyone else within 100 yards :)

Re: Pilates or yoga? - Amanda Beechcroft-Kay (16th Sep 2024 - 23:02:12) Staying true to the original method devised by Joseph Pilates Sublime Pilates offers Classical Reformer Pilates classes. These will connect you to your core, challenge your physical ability, strengthen and tone muscles you've never felt before whilst keeping your body aligned and supported. If you want to know more about the yoga vs. Pilates debate, do drop in for a FREE taster Reformer Pilates class offered by myself. I have been a teacher of both disciplines for over 20 years.

Re: Pilates or yoga? - Joe (18th Sep 2024 - 11:50:24) Drop in where though?
