HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?
Completion of this program is determined by how quickly hours are obtained outside of our in weekend training sessions. Please see the hour structure below for reference. On average it takes about six months to complete our Reformer & Mat Program. The 150hr Mat Program can be completed within three months from training. Our comprehensive program can take anywhere from eight to twelve months to complete.

HOW DOES THE TRAINING WORK?

There are 4 main components to THE LAB.

• Studio Lectures: In studio we will cover Anatomy, History of Pilates, Scope of Practice, and a breakdown of each exercise according to choreography, muscle focus, and contraindications. We will also spend time learning how to put together private training sessions, and group classes.

• Self Practice Hours: Each program will require you to spend a set amount of hours practicing in class, teaching yourself through your manuals, or practicing from approved online resources.

• Practice Teaching Hours. Each program will require you to spend a set amount of time teaching others. We recommend you start practice teaching after your first training weekend. The more people and diverse populations you can teach, the more prepared you will be for your test out.

• Observation Hours: Each program will require you to spend a set amount of time observing experienced teachers in group and private settings. This is one of the best ways to learn how to cue exercises and setup, program sessions, and accommodate clients with injuries.

• Test Out: Upon completion of your hours, you will schedule a date to take you final exam. This exam will include both a written and practical section. If you pass both exams, you will become a Certified Pilates Teacher.
