Just wondering if anyone has tried PiYO and what your thoughts are of it? It mixes Pilates and Yoga and does not require any home equipment. No weights, just your own body weight. Helps with toning and flexibility. I know of others who have tried it, but me myself have not yet tried it.

I started taking a PiYo class a few weeks ago - I've gone twice so far.  It's challenging.  My pilates class is very slow and methodical so I find piyo to be much faster paced than either pilates or yoga are.  It's much more of an aerobic class.  It's a great workout!

Since I have never taken a Yoga or Pilates class before, would you recommend I try those on their own first before jumping in with PiYO?

Nope!  I would just suggest that you let your instructor know so that they won't expect you to know what "downward dog" is :D  You don't need to have any knowledge of yoga or pilates to do PiYo.
