Where yoga is primarily focused on stretching, spirituality and creating flexibility in muscles, Pilates is much more aimed at strengthening your core.
This is important as building up your core strength creates stronger back, shoulder, leg and abdominal muscles. All of those aspects are essential for overall body conditioning and together give you a body that is more resilient to the strains of life.
Yoga is a fantastic way of relaxing and calming the mind, and Pilates has some of those benefits too, but the focus is on the body a little more.
