Does anyone do Pilates? Thoughts? Yoga? I am really interested, and am looking for thoughts as to how to get started.

    Pilates is awesome! Try a studio if you can and go to a very small class...2-4 people. The more hands on help you can get to get started the better you willl understand the exercise! I go 1.5 x/wk. I also have some DVD's.

    Yoga and Pilates are excellent workouts. The level of challenge varies greatly and is easy to customize for beginners to advanced. Try several to find your fit. Local health clubs and "Y"s all hold a variety of classes, and there are many DVD's available as well. You'd get fit, strong, toned, and keep your body healthy. I've done yoga for many years, and even when every other part of my fitness program fell apart, I never let up on my yoga routine.
