Navigating your path to Pilates certification can be confusing and spark a lot of questions. But we're here to make things easy for you. We'll help you create a plan that aligns with both your schedule and budget. Where do you fall on this timeline, and where do you want to end up? Let's plan together.
if you already work in the fitness field and have teaching experience, start with Intensive Mat Plus™ (IMP) and Intensive Reformer (IR). Courses are conducted over 2 weeks or 3-4 weekends. Build on your industry knowledge and learn to design and lead Essential and Intermediate STOTT PILATES® Matwork for personal or group training settings.
If you practice Pilates but lack teaching experience and education in anatomy, this track will give you the solid foundation you need. CMR is a six-month commitment that combines both matwork and Reformer training and includes an internship with clients so you gain the experience you need to launch your career.
