Choosing A Pilates Studio

“The Pilates Method is an exercise process which creates an internal physical transformation and integration of body and mind.  In order to be a professional Pilates teacher, one must experience the transformation first – understanding that it is never complete but a constant evolution of learning.” Pilates Method Alliance (USA)

When choosing a Pilates studio it is important that you always enquire as to what level of training your Pilates Instructor has received.

• Are they professional Pilates Instructors who have completed approved Pilates Certification Courses?
• How long was the relevant training course that they undertook?  (Look for a minimum  6 -12 months duration  with theoretical and practical examinations plus follow up apprenticeship training).
• Do the Pilates Instructors hold current First Aid Qualifications along with Malpractice Insurance?

If the answers to any of these questions are unsatisfactory then we suggest that you look to practice your Pilates in another more established studio.
