    To get a better understanding of what yoga and meditation is, there is a good article at
    http://www.burrenyoga.com/about-yoga/what-is-meditation.html

    Pilates is a physical practice developed by Joseph Pilates as a way to stay fit, even if one has an injury or has lost a limb. He developed it by studying the core movements of yoga postures.

    I hope that you can see from the above link that Yoga is much much more than just physical postures.

    Best Wishes,
    Dave

    Dave explained it really well, Pilates uses controlled movement to strength and tone the body.
