那天看见一个MM问这个问题，我也不是太明白，就google了一下，大致是介样子的：
What is yoga?
Yoga is the best and most time-tested path to physical and mental well-being known to mankind. While some people think of yoga simply as physical exercise, it is actually a complete system for overall health and well-being. It includes everything from physical postures, personal hygiene, and a healthy diet to premeditation, breathing, and relaxation techniques. The most advanced forms of meditation and self-realization are also a part of yoga. Wai Lana’s workouts focus on yoga’s physical techniques.

Derived from ancient yoga asanas, the Pilates exercise system was formulated by Joseph Pilates over 80 years ago for more specific and limited purposes. Although Pilates is not a complete balanced or holistic exercise and health system, it is quite useful. Pilates focuses mainly on cultivating core strength in the body and lengthening the spine. Practiced for decades by dancers, Pilates has become popular in recent years for its largely aesthetic body sculpting effect. Pilates can be a valuable tool for enhancing strength, definition, and good posture。
共同处：
Mind-body-spirit
Yoga and Pilates both encourage "mindful movement." Unlike running or walking, where your movement becomes automatic, you have to keep your mind totally focused on what your body is doing when you practice yoga or Pilates.
不同处1：
Static versus dynamic
Yoga exercises are static (Ashtanga is an exception), meaning you get into the pose, you hold it for several breath cycles and then you get out of the pose.
Pilates exercises, meanwhile, are constantly moving. You perform five to 10 repetitions of an exercise, and then you move on to the next.
不同处2：
Coordinated breathing
Breathing is a big thing with both yoga and Pilates. Both believe in coordinating the breath with the movement.
Pilates has one basic style of breathing, which is called "ribcage breathing." The purpose is to stabilize and protect your spine while you are in different positions by holding your abdominal muscles tight but still allowing you to take deep breaths by expanding the ribcage.
Yoga, meanwhile, has many styles of breathing for many different purposes. There is belly breathing to relax you, the "ujjayi breathing" where you make a Darth Vader sort of sound at the back of your throat to help keep your focus during the poses, the "breath of fire" to energize you, and the alternate nostril breathing to calm you down. And there are many other advanced breathing techniques for deeper meditation.
PILATES好像更注重物理练习，YOGA还有冥想呼吸等等……
年底我也想去做做PILATES，对腰身塑形很有好处
