We recommend you come and experience your course in the flesh but where necessary we can facilitate anyone who can't get to the studio in person (you'll need to have access to any equipment being used). Everyone signed up will have access to all of the course content via our online teaching portal. Our in-person workshops and seminars will be live-streamed and recorded and uploaded to our online portal for access throughout your training. All of your study materials will be provided in the online portal and written exams will also be completed on there.

Workshops Only

Workshops Only - Just the workshops, without the training.

Our Classical Teacher Training workshops cover the entire Classical Pilates repertoire. They also introduce the ‘teaching skills’ that allow our teachers to skillfully teach Pilates to a broad population of people. The workshops are the ‘information’ part of our Teacher Training courses, and then through an internship our students build the skills, knowledge and confidence to become a great teacher. We’re opening our workshops to everyone who would enjoy delving deeper into the Pilates method, without the teacher training internship. You will receive a certificate of attendance but not a certificate of completion of teacher training or course graduation. 

Who might the ‘workshops only’ be suitable for?

  • Maybe you’re thinking about doing teacher training in future but you’re not ready to delve fully in just yet.
  • You’re committed to your personal practise and just want to learn more about the method.
  • You’re already a Pilates teacher and would like a refresher course or perhaps an alternative perspective.

What Our Clients Say

'I used to suffer from back, shoulder and neck pain on and off as a result of a minor car accident, and the muscles never really recovered. However, since I started doing Pilates, I noticed my back, shoulder and neck muscles are so much stronger than before. I could really feel a difference after 5 or 6 classes. It’s been fantastic.'

Caren

'When I first started at Pilates Centre, I was constantly aware of my back pain due to a disc injury. Within no time of taking a couple of classes a week, I started to forget that I had a back problem at all! It's just great.'

Ann Marie

'I started Pilates as an addition to my running training. It had taken me 9 months of running to shave 20 seconds off my 5k run time. It took 5 Pilates classes at Pilates Centre to shave off an additional 20 seconds!'
