We intend to teach you! If you already knew all there is to know about Pilates, you wouldn't need our program. We expect some pilates experience (usually about 20 classes or private classes), and a commitment to engage in a serious program that challenges you physically and mentally.
It's also important to note some of the best teachers are the ones who had to overcome obstacles in their practice. Your future students will appreciate a teacher that can help them embrace their challenges and help them work through them.ext goes here

Certified Instructors have a few options: enrolling in one of our programs and/or crafting a more specific Mentorship. Our mentorships are tailored to each individual and their specific goals. Depending on the student's goals, budget, etc., we put together a program that can include: private sessions; meetings/discussions; observation; attending modules/lectures of our Teacher Training programs; and/or an offer to become an apprentice at one of our studios to begin teaching within a supportive environment.
