Apprenticeship

Studio Comprehensive Apprenticeship

The final step in your Pilates Teacher Training is the Studio Comprehensive Apprenticeship.

The 6 - 9 month, 300 hour Studio Comprehensive Apprenticeship Teacher Training Certification will equip you to teach in a Private and Semi-Private environment.

Being a studio Apprentice is the most immersive & effective way to go deep into teaching Pilates. You’ll be an important member of the studio team while you are learning how to teach Pilates in a small group Studio environment.

Slow and steady is the best way to learn and grow as a teacher, with plenty of guidance from your mentors, self-practice time and teaching time in your Apprentice classes.

Are you already certified or simply passionate about deepening your Pilates practice? The Studio Comprehensive will be offered as individual modules. We welcome both certified teachers and enthusiasts to complete one or more of the individual modules on offer. Your journey ends with a certificate of participation to celebrate your growth - perfect for those focusing on their personal practice.
