Are you ready to become a Pilates Instructor?
Train in one of the only studios in the region offering a comprehensive Classical & Contemporary Mat and Reformer Teacher Training.
Peach House Pilates Teacher Training is a comprehensive 250-hour Mat + Reformer certification designed to develop knowledgeable, confident and well-rounded instructors.
Our training combines the foundations of Classical Pilates with the creativity and evolution of Contemporary Pilates. You'll begin by understanding the history, principles and original work of Joseph Pilates before learning how to thoughtfully build upon that foundation through modern movement, creative sequencing and contemporary teaching techniques.
