Yoga
The ancient art of healing, toning and rejuvenating the body.
"Yoga" means "union", bringing together the body, mind and soul as a holistic path to health.
"Ha" means sun and "tha" means moon, illustrating the opposing qualities of our breathing, much like yin and yang.
Hatha yoga is practiced through posture and breathing. Mastering yoga helps us tap our latent energies and has a calming influence on our mind. The great thing is that it can be practiced anywhere, anytime.
Yoga consists of breathing exercise, body postures and meditation. This promotes flexibility and concentration, and relaxation of the mind leads to a calming effect which balances and harmonizes the basic structure of the human body. Regular practice replenishes the body with energy, rejuvenates tired muscles and releases stress.

Pilates has benefits like increased lung capacity and circulation through deep, healthy breathing.

Posture, balance, and core strength are all heartily increased.
