Program Overview
Pilates is a mind-body method of exercise using a floor mat and variety of equipment to improve ones strength, flexibility, agility and performance. Pilates increases core strength and teaches body awareness, good posture and efficient movement patterns. The Specialized Pilates Instructor Certificate prepares students to teach at a health club, fitness center, privately owned studio, or as an independent contractor. The program includes instruction in the technique, pedagogy, history and theory behind Pilates. Students procure personal sessions, observation hours, and student teaching hours in each of the program's core courses. In addition, students choose 2-3 elective courses to create an individualized program that suits their career goals.
