IT ALL STARTS ON THE MAT

Matwork is the fundamental first step in Pilates teacher training. As a practitioner on the mat, you will learn to connect with your body and as a teacher, you will learn how to cue movement without the added complexity of props or apparatus.

In this comprehensive training, you will learn a lot of repertoire - both original Contrology repertoire and modern variations. But teaching Pilates is about so much more than repertoire. We will share how to program amazing classes that your clients will love and show you how to customise your classes for anybody, so you get to share your passion for Pilates with everyone.
