What is the difference between Pilates and Yoga breathing?
In Yoga, a belly breathing method is used with inhaling and exhaling both through the nose (belly breathing helps oxygenate the blood, lowers blood pressure and promotes relaxation)
Pilates uses a 3-dimensional breathing pattern during the practice.

In Pilates, breathing takes an important role, especially in the initial position of the exercise. It can help in enhancing the precision of movement and coordination.
