Educational Trainings

Our teacher training programs are designed for people who are passionate about movement, learning, and helping others move well.

Many of our students come from health, fitness, and wellness backgrounds including personal trainers, physiotherapists, osteopaths, yoga teachers, and other movement professionals. We also welcome career changers looking to begin a new path in Pilates while continuing to work full-time.

The most successful students are curious, motivated and committed to developing both their technical knowledge and teaching skills.

To apply, we recommend:

  • A minimum of 6 months of regular Pilates practice (Matwork or Reformer).

  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills.

  • A genuine interest in movement, anatomy, and client care.

  • Basic anatomical knowledge (recommended reading and resources can be provided).

Please Note:

To enroll in Chair, Cadillac, and Barrels training, students must first complete either Matwork or Reformer training.

If you're unsure whether the program is the right fit, we'd be happy to discuss your background and help guide you toward the most appropriate training pathway.
