Personally, I love and have studied karate for a long time, but my lady loves yoga. Frankly, if you are looking for something to chill you out or heat you up, that is the thing for you. I bought her a sweet pass to Silverlake Yoga, it has rocked her world.

I wouldn't say that one is better than the other. It's all a matter of what you're looking for and where you get the most satisfaction. Yoga is more about breathing while pilates focuses on strength and muscle building. Karate is more of a sport and competition and aerobics are great for weight loss and burning calories.

Here's a nice article on yoga vs. pilates: http://yourtotalhealth.ivillage.com/diet-fitness/yoga-vs-pilates-which-best-you.html

I would suggest trying them all once and seeing what you like.

I think that it depends on what you need in your life.

Yoga is a very zen workout where Pilates is zen and a REAL workout. I think aerobics is high energy and karate is a very respected, patient and intense workout - then that might be for you!

I suggest whichever it is you want, you make a solid commitment to and then write and let us know how it goes!

good luck!
