Full certification or individual course delivery. You choose.
The Pacific NW Pilates Education instructor training program has been designed for flexible scheduling, and is modular, so you can do the full program, or just the courses you’re interested in. We have designed special discounts when you sign on for multiple courses to complete a stream.
Entry points:
- All students need to begin with the Functional Anatomy course*.
- Next, you will move into the Matwork stream.
- You can either certify in Matwork only, or continue on with Injuries and Special Populations, or Reformer stream.
- Once you have completed Reformer you can then take the Cadillac, Chair and Barrels course to achieve your full certification through STOTT PILATES.
- Rehabilitation courses are only available to degree-qualified healthcare professionals and Physical Therapy Asisstants.
- The PNWP Education Train to Teach Program offers opportunity for aspiring instructors to teach actual clients under the guidance of a senior STOTT PILATES instructor, while training for certification.
* If you have completed prior anatomy and physiology studies you may qualify for an exemption from the functional anatomy course. Email certification@pacificnwpilates.com or call 503.292.4409 if you believe you qualify for an exemption or take our online online anatomy quiz to find out if your knowledge of anatomy is comprehensive enough to ensure your success in the certification program.
Flexible course duration and timing
The modular nature of the course also means that you have a great deal of flexibility in your scheduling. We offer weekend courses, spaced out over several weeks per module, as well as intensive, consecutive weekday courses. You can mix and match modules to create a schedule that suits your needs.
The full certification can be completed in as long as 18 months, or as little as 12 weeks (the 12 week option is not for the faint-hearted). Most students complete the full certification in 6-9 months part time.
