Learn to lead joyful, accessible, nervous system-intelligent Pilates Reformer Classes!
TRANSFORM your confidence and client retention, and set yourself up for decades of success as a group Pilates Instructor inside our Trauma-Informed Pilates Teacher 2-Day Instructor Training.
During our time together on the weekend of April 25-26, you'll learn the teaching techniques to help your students:
feel more comfortable in a boutique fitness environment even if they don't fit the typical (white, skinny, cisgendered, able-bodied) mold of what pop culture tells us is a Pilates practitioner
calm their busy brain in the first 5 minutes of class so they can be more focused and present throughout their workout
warm up their joints and release key tension areas like the psoas, neck and shoulders so they can access their pelvic floor and core more deeply
build strength intelligently through smart sequencing so they can avoid tweaking their injuries and develop a more sustainable exercise practice
take 3-5 minute at the end of your sequence to breathe and move in ways that encourage a parasympathetic nervous system response, so they can leave class feeling spacious, relaxed and centered
Originally designed as a 4 day training, this eye-opening and empowering CET has recently been consolidated to 2 days to be more time-efficient.
Perfect for the fitness or wellness pro who wants to add Pilates Reformer Instruction to their skillset and resume, as well for the dedicated Pilates practitioner who wants to develop a safe, fun home practice for themselves and/or their loved ones..,
