Is Pilates the New Yoga? What Pregnant & Postnatal Women Need to Know

Описание: In this episode, I explore the rise of Pilates and ask: Is it replacing yoga? And if so, what does that mean for women navigating pregnancy, birth, and motherhood?

I share my personal experience with both Pilates and yoga (I go to Pilates once a week and used to teach Yogalates!), acknowledge the huge overlap between the two practices, and explain why yoga's deeper dimensions (breathwork, philosophy, mudras, and mantras) are exactly what pregnant and postnatal women need during one of the biggest transitions of their lives.

IN THIS EPISODE:
Why Pilates is having a moment (and why that's okay)
The post-COVID effect: people want to get back into studios
Where Pilates and yoga actually overlap (spoiler: a lot)
Why it makes me a little mad when Pilates borrows yoga poses without credit
The key difference: yoga includes everything Pilates does, plus another dimension
Why breathwork matters more during labor than you think
How sitting in silence together creates a different kind of connection
Why the simple, boring things work best
Living yoga vs. performing yoga, and why it matters
Can you do both? (Spoiler: Yes!)
