Mat Programs

Power Pilates Mat programs are the first step in your Pilates Training. Once you complete and pass each program, you will receive an Assessment-Based Certificate (ABC) stating your eligibility to teach that particular level Pilates Mat class.

Core Mat I

The foundation of all of our programs; every program builds upon the information provided in this course. You will learn 18 Beginner level Mat exercises and be introduced to the Power Pilates Teaching Tools (i.e. philosophy, teaching formula, Power Pilates “Art of Teaching”).

Core Mat II

Develop your ability to work with people of all ages and different fitness levels. You will learn 12 Intermediate level Mat exercises and where to add them within the sequence of the Beginner Mat class, while continuing to develop your teaching skills.

Advanced Mat

This one day continuing education training focuses on complex cueing and sophisticated variations, including 14 Advanced level Mat exercises. The Advanced Mat Course will provide the skills for achieving a deeper engagement in the body that adds an intuitive richness to the exercises.

Apparatus Programs

Graduates of our Comprehensive program qualify to take the Pilates Method Alliance exam to complete certification.

Comprehensive

The Power Pilates Comprehensive program is our most extensive program, lasting 6-9 months and including over 600 classroom and apprentice hours. The program covers Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced level exercises integrating the Mat, Reformer, Cadillac, Chairs, Barrels, Ped-O-Pull and Magic Circle.

You will master the teaching tools learned during the previously attended Mat programs; building and developing teaching skills while increasing knowledge, confidence and the skill set to work with special case clientele. As a sought after Power Pilates graduate, you will develop a sharp eye for subtle exercise modifications and have the ability to work with people of all ages and fitness levels concurrently.

Bridge Participants

The Power Pilates Bridge program was developed for seasoned Pilates teachers previously trained with another educator. The goal is for you, an experienced teacher, to learn, understand and re-visit the principles and exercises of the classical method. Enjoy being a student again! You will attend the five weekend intensives of the Comprehensive program, but do not have the same Apprentice Hour requirements (if any at all). The program ends with a four- part test out.

Continuing Education

Power Pilates believes that learning is an ongoing process and that completing a training program is only the first step. Our continuing education courses allow you to review the principles and exercises learned during education, explore topics not covered during you program, refine your teaching skills, and most importantly, maintain the integrity of the method. Power Pilates has developed the most extensive continuing education program in the industry and offers frequent continuing education conferences as well as the opportunity to complete credits online at LeadersinFitness.com.
