Difference Between Essentrics and Callanetics

While both Essentrics and Callanetics are low-impact exercise methods focused on flexibility and muscle toning without bulking, the key difference lies in the movement patterns: Essentrics incorporates larger, flowing movements that mimic natural body motions, drawing from ballet, tai chi, and physiotherapy principles to achieve full-body stretching and strengthening whereas Callanetics primarily uses very small, repetitive pulses to target specific muscle groups.
