OUR MAT & REFORMER PILATES TEACHER TRAINING 2024
We’re thrilled to finally share details about our next instalment(s) of both, Mat and Reformer Pilates Teacher Training Program!
Our teaching partners at Regarding Form (re:form) teach movement education, exploration, and empowerment; believing passionately that physical intelligence is an undervalued, vital skill that supports a full and rewarding modern life. Through this lens, both as teachers and teacher trainers, they encourage individuals to cultivate their own unique and informed movement practices. These practices should be gratifying, productive, and durable, and facilitate a positive relationship with moving one’s own body.
We approach the Pilates Method from a contemporary angle, offering a discipline that is highly adaptive for any practitioner’s specific needs and goals. Our approach to Pilates is not an exclusive one. We also strive to shepherd the Pilates legacy with care and reverence for its early iterations. With these goals in mind, the re:form Teacher Training offers immersion in the traditional form of each exercise, as well as the tools to rework choreography creatively in deliberate, functional and impactful ways.

The re:form philosophy on movement
Foundational musculoskeletal anatomy
Fundamentals of functional movement
