What does yin yoga and Pilates involve?
Pilates is a low-impact exercise method that focuses on improving core strength, flexibility, and overall body alignment. It typically targets deep muscle groups, promoting stability, posture, and coordination.
Yin yoga is a slow, meditative style of yoga that involves holding passive poses for extended periods, typically 3 to 7 minutes. It targets the deep connective tissues, such as ligaments, joints, and fascia, to enhance flexibility and improve circulation.
