Our opinion on Piloxing:

I think Pilates Boxing offers a fairly complete course that should be loved by many.

Whether you like dancing or not, flexible or not, this course is available to everyone.

It allows you to have a good time, despite what we call the “new Zumba,” it’s not just a dance that makes the discipline more complete!

The fact that there is no break in the session, but the Pilates section in the middle allows you to recover.
