A modern program from the studio that made athletic pilates famous in los angeles

We love Pilates. Like, a lot. And we recognize that we can introduce Pilates to more people if it's taught the way today’s customers want it: as a sweaty workout that delivers on fitness goals. This certification program was built to prepare you for this new era of Pilates-goers who are turning to Pilates as a fitness option.

This comprehensive, 410-hour program begins March 14th. Enrollment closes March 7th.

we build confident trainers

This program is different in that we'll approach teaching Pilates through exercise science and help you actually understand exercises and their impact on the body—not just memorize springs, rep counts, and cues. This program also focuses more on programming, teaching, and not only how to ace a private session but also how to own group room so you graduate confident and ready to conquer any format, at any level, at any studio. Each Trainee will be mentored by a Pilatesmith Trainer. Spots will be limited.



a COMPRehensive program

This 410-hour program is comprehensive in that you’ll learn to teach the Classical repertoire and Contemporary exercises across the most popular apparatus: Mat, Reformer, Chair, and Cadillac. Each Trainee will have access to both Pilatesmith studio locations to complete their self-practice, teaching, and observation hours, and will be mentored by a Pilatesmith Trainer. You’ll find a detailed syllabus of the in-studio intensive workshop coursework below.
