I — Overview

Two days that set the shape of a teacher.

Fundamentals is where most of our students, from Tamworth and across the Midlands, meet the method for the first time as future teachers. Two contact days in the studio, with on-site accommodation for anyone travelling further, followed by fifty-five hours of personal and teaching practice and observation, then a single assessment.

You leave with the vocabulary, the connections and the beginner repertoire to start teaching a first lesson — and a clear sense of whether the deeper training is for you.

II — What you learn

Connections, repertoire,
teaching craft.

01

Core connections

Understand the fundamental Pilates connections in the body — the anatomy of the method as it lives inside the exercises.

02

Beginner repertoire

Learn beginner-level mat, reformer and tower exercises — the shape of a first lesson on each apparatus.

03

Teaching craft

Develop teaching skills, cueing and hands-on technique. Learn modifications for all body types so you can meet the room in front of you.

III

Who it's for

Pilates enthusiasts who are curious about teaching, or beginning their teacher training journey.
