Benefits of Pilates
Yoga principally is against Christian religious beliefs so perhaps pilates would be better.
yoga is more stretching the muscles. Pilates is strengthening them. I've done both and yoga can be tough but it's easy going and I like to do it before a jog or something. But Pilates is a workout of it's own and you can be as sore as if you just did some weight training. They are both good for stretching and flexibility
