Movement or stillness? Posture or meditation? Pilates or Reformer?Often, a dynamic and fast-paced class like Vinyasa or Power can be intimidating and overwhelming and has the ability to leave newbies feeling like Yoga or Pilates is too hard for them. It is not that Yoga or Pilates is not for you but rather that, at this stage, Vinyasa or Power may not be the right fit for you (yet – if that is what you want form your practice -). Often, these classes are not tailored to Yoga and Pilates for beginners even if the teachers teach in a way that makes includes all levels of experience. Choose a style such that suits your pace and gives you time to find your feet and learn how to breathe and move and set up your reformer. At the same time, the stillness and intensity of a Yin class can be excruciating for someone just starting. Meditation might be the right entry point for you? Learn to walk before trying to run. And above all, be kind to yourself.
