Never done Yoga or Pilates before have ?
which would you recommend starting with?
Please recommend a place to go too!
I live in the Babylon area.
Do all of these places offer memberships only or can you pay as you go?
Sorry for all the questions. Thanks!

Re: Never done Yoga or Pilates before have ?
I know you read my other thread but I highly recommend the hot yoga place where I go.
I had never done it before either (just some yoga dvds at home).
ETA: A big reason I love this place too is because it's geared to beginners, they never make you feel uncomfortable or put you on the spot and it's always the same class so you have a chance to learn and improve at your own pace.

I go to Big Al's Family Fitness in Amityville. They have awesome classes. I love their pilates class. Haven't tried yoga yet.

When I lived on the South Shore I used to go to Fitness Incentive in Babylon Village (I think that's what you call the area). They have an AMAZING yoga and pilates program. Check them out online.

I go to Fab Pilates in Babylon Village. And you don't have to be a member. You can sign up for one class at a time, or buy packages of 5 or 10 or whatever! Check it out !

I go to LA Fitness in Farmingdale and take their pilates. I was a beginner when I went (and I still am). I really like the classes.

Okay, I might just check the hot yoga out!

I go to hot yoga as well on Sunrise Hwy in Massapequa. They have a great package to begin. It's $20 for the first 10 days. By then you know if you want to invest in continuing.

Re: Never done Yoga or Pilates before have ?
I recommend starting with Yoga then you can work your way to Pilates. IMO Pilates is way harder and a lot more core and strength oriented
