Next week at the Asia Pilates conference, one of my workshops will look at Yoga, Yin Yoga and Yin Pilates, similarities, differences, & how each may enhance the other. Take a look at some of the images below. If you're attending, I look forward to meeting you soon!
Pilates friends. Yin Pilates is now in China! Below is a short video on the launch of the Chinese version of "stretching on the Pilates reformer" and ChinaFit.
Does your studio offer a variety of Pilates styles? Most Yoga studios do. As Reformer studios expand, this will become a key differentiator.
Just as premium Yoga studios now offer a variety of Yoga classes such as Yin, Ashtanga, Power, etc., so too, Pilates studios need to cater to the differing demands of clients.
One reason for offering different styles is that different personality types prefer different practices. Check out this interesting study on the topic. Which type are you?!

Two studies have found more health benefits associated with stretching than originally thought.
Most people do a little compulsory stretching before they exercise, but perhaps we should do more. Two studies, one in 2020 and one in 2023, found that stretching was associated with a lower risk of death, separate from other forms of exercise.
