Pilates Teacher Certification & Continuing Education
FOR NEW APPRENTICES AND TEACHERS BRIDGING TO THE CLASSICAL PILATES SYSTEM
Our apprenticeship program was born out of the need for more robust education options. We are not a teacher-training mill pumping out subpar graduates left-and-right. We are dedicated to preserving the integrity of the Pilates method and our selection process is as challenging as the apprenticeship program itself. That said, our apprentices move on to effectively teach Pilates as a system — the way it was intended.
Our approach highlights the importance of hands-on training and experiential learning.
Wherever your journey into teaching Pilates takes you, a strong foundation in the traditional work is key to a well-rounded, well-informed future as a movement professional. A lifetime of learning, discovery and empowerment—for yourself and for your future clients—awaits you and we are here to guide you on the right path.
Apprenticeship Interest List
We accept apprentices on a case-by-case basis, and, in few words: we’re picky. If you seek the quickest point from A to “certification,” we are not the studio for you. If you want to put in the time to actually learn how to teach the real deal, get in touch to be put on the interest list. Prospective apprentices are evaluated on their current understanding of the Pilates method and the ability to commit to an appropriate training schedule.
