Twinkle Khanna, has started doing Pilates training under coach Samir Purohit, after being convinced to do so, by her friend, Farah Khan Ali.
Farah says, “I started learning Pilates with Samir two years ago and he changed my life. Tina (Twinkle) is my childhood friend. One day, when we caught up, I recommended doing Pilates and told her she must try it out. She said she only does yoga, but I asked her to try it out for my sake. She said she’d do it if she could come with me for one class.”
Samir says, “Twinkle came to us with a desire to get her neck issue sorted out and to improve core strength. She’s been training with us for 12 sessions and her neck issue is definitely better and her core is much stronger than when she started.”
Twinkle adds, “I have practised yoga for the last 15 years, but now, I feel the need to build more muscle and develop core strength. So, I practise both — yoga for my brain and Pilates for my joints.”
