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? - Helen G (15th Jun 2024 - 22:30:33) Give Sammy Lambley's Monday night class in Liphook a try? www.samanthalambley.com

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 :)
