MATWORK REFORMER PILATES ACADEMY

The  Matwork Course is your first step towards becoming a fully qualified Pilates Instructor

This is an entry course into a rewarding career as a Pilates instructor. 

Upon completion, you'll emerge as a fully certified matwork instructor.

The prep component of this course involves reading through the manual,  understanding  programming a class, learning muscle activation, common injuries, pregnancy and how to do physical corrections.

You complete this online study before attending the 4 day practical component of the course.

After the online component is complete you will attend a 4 day face to face course.

To ensure that each participant departs the course with a strong sense of confidence and proficiency, we intentionally limit the course enrollment to small numbers. 

This approach allows us to provide individualised attention, personalised feedback, and ample practice opportunities.

By capping the course at a manageable size, we create an environment where your learning journey is prioritised, your questions are addressed comprehensively, and you have the space to refine your skills through hands-on practice.

• Anatomy and physiology
• Alignment principles
• Reformer repertoire and cueing techniques
• Dynamic teaching skills
• Hands-on adjustments and where to palpate
• Pre and post natal modifications *
• Common injuries and competency modifications

Do I need to complete the Matwork Course before Reformer? 

No, the Matwork Course is the prerequisite to Reformer ONLY if you want to teach Mat and Reformer. You will not be a qualified Mat teacher once completing the Reformer component. You will only be a Reformer Pilates Instructor 

Do I need to compete the Anatomy essentials course before the Mat or Anatomy Course? 

Yes.

If you have completed a relevant degree or have prior education of anatomy and physiology you may be exempt from this.
