Here’s what you can expect
from the Training Program:

↓

  • We intentionally keep our class sizes small with limited enrollment. This allows every student to receive individualized guidance, hands-on support, and direct feedback throughout the program. With more opportunities to ask questions and refine your teaching skills, you’ll build confidence faster and develop a deeper understanding of the material. Our goal is to create an intimate, supportive learning environment where you are truly seen, heard, and set up for success.

  • With each course or module, you’ll receive a fully illustrated manual designed to be a lasting resource for your teaching journey. Every exercise is explained in detail—not only the “how,” but also the “why.” You’ll gain a deeper understanding of functional movement, anatomy, and the specific muscles engaged, as well as clear guidance on modifications and variations for different bodies and abilities. These manuals are thoughtfully created to support both your learning in the moment and your continued growth as a teacher, giving you a reference you can return to again and again.

  • In addition to the manuals, you’ll have access to an extensive video library that brings the exercises and concepts to life. These videos are designed to support visual learning, giving you the opportunity to see the movements taught, cued, and broken down in real time. Whether you’re reviewing after class, preparing for practice teaching, or simply reinforcing what you’ve learned, the video library is a valuable tool to help you learn at your own pace and revisit material whenever you need it.

  • Our Comprehensive Program is designed not only to deepen your knowledge and teaching skills but also to fully prepare you for the National Pilates Certification Program (NPCP) exam. The curriculum is carefully aligned with NPCP standards, ensuring you have a solid foundation in Pilates principles, anatomy, and teaching methodology. By the time you graduate, you’ll feel confident and ready to sit for the exam with the tools and knowledge needed to succeed.

  • Graduates of the program are equipped with the skills and confidence to teach in a variety of settings—from established Pilates studios and fitness centers to private practice. You’ll also gain the tools and knowledge to launch your own Pilates business if that’s your path. Whether you want the stability of working within a studio community or the independence of creating your own, this training opens the door to a flexible and rewarding career.

  • “Training with Maria has been the most fulfilling fitness instruction course I’ve done to date. She brings together the traditional Pilates repertoire, a deep and comprehensive knowledge of anatomy and physiology, and a humor that makes the training so much fun. Maria takes time to answer specific questions, describe all the modifications and variations, and make the incredibly in-depth program feel digestible and attainable. I’m so incredibly grateful to be able to learn from and practice with Maria.”
