Pilates Certification

Pilates Comprehensive Track

Open to anyone, our Pilates Teacher Training Comprehensive Track takes you through three different conceptual frameworks of movement theory. The traditional Pilates repertoire and equipment are the base, and we expand upon this by integrating the latest in human movement science. You graduate not only as a certified Pilates teacher but as a human movement specialist able to modify, amplify and adjust how you work to meet the needs of a broad range of clients—to effect positive change in how they move and feel. Whether you’re interested in learning to teach group or private Pilates in a studio, club or therapeutic setting, in person or online, your Body Harmonics education will set you and your clients up for long-term success.

How to start

Level 1: Mat training is a significant first step on your journey to becoming a comprehensively trained Body Harmonics Pilates teacher. It will enable you to make a positive impact on healthy people with basic movement challenges.

Levels 2 and 3 will help you refine your teaching, observation and analytical skills. You will also learn the entire Pilates equipment repertoire and modifications. Even if you choose to teach part-time and only on the mat, Levels 2 and 3 will make you a superior teacher and problem-solver for movement impairments. With a Body Harmonics Pilates Comprehensive diploma, you will be ready to help people with almost any movement related issue.
