What are some good Yoga and/or Pilates exercises?

Question by : What are some good Yoga and/or Pilates exercises?
I’m trying to slim down and tone up a bit for modelling and in addition to eating healthier I’m also exercising. Some of my favourite models do a lot of yoga and pilates and I’d love to take classes, but I can’t afford it. So I was wondering what some good, basic exercises are for both types of movement? I am specifically focusing on slimming down my hips, stomach and thighs if there are any particular exercises for that.
Thank you!!!
xoxo

I’ve done Pilates. It is very good for back problems. It’s taught in a lot of different styles and consistency. You’re not going to walk into every Pilates class and get the same thing.

The BalleCore® Workout: Integrating Pilates, Hatha Yoga, and Ballet in an Innovative Exercise Routine for All Fitness Levels

BalleCore is unique in that it combines three tried-and-true disciplines into one optimal workout. Pilates strengthens and stretches the major muscles, activates your core (the band of muscles below your chest), and energizes your body. Hatha yoga helps quiet the mind through breath, fortifies the nervous system, builds stamina, and produces mental equilibrium. Ballet increases blood flow, develops poise, promotes good posture, and improves balance.
