Pilates MN Teacher Training Program
Teacher Training Overview
Pilates MN has paired with Pilates Education Institute to offer a comprehensive Pilates certificate training program for those who wish to strengthen their practice and become teachers. Our unique program provides trainees the tools they need to become qualified trainers both privately and in the classroom.
Program Details
In-house hours: 4 hours per week learning and practicing new exercises with the Pilates educators
Suggested 6 hours per week in practice, observation, working with fellow trainees, online study and homework
3 levels of training: Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced. Each level builds on one another and takes 6-7 months in total
All classes are mandatory but make-up trainings can be available with Shawn, Alex or Pam. Please note this will take 2 hours and the trainer will need to be paid their hourly private cost.
Note that if needed, students can complete the program the following year as long as Pilates MN holds the training
We take Holidays off on Labor Day Weekend, Thanksgiving weekend and Christmas and New Years weekends
A Certificate of Completion is available for those who complete the course or take the NCPC test.
Pilates Education Institute
PEI has created a beautiful training and software system for studios that want to offer their own training. We decided to use the PEI program for our studio because it provides all the components we need to offer a comprehensive program for our students.

Cost
Training cost is $5500. There are 10 payments of $550 per month starting in July. This includes unlimited class packages each month.
Once a payment has been made that month for training there are no refunds. So, if you decide this training doesn’t work for you at any time, it is possible to simply leave the program knowing that - at minimum - you’ve learned a lot for your own practice. Also note that if needed, students can complete the program the following year as long as Pilates MN holds the training.
Our program is unique as we have kept our costs down in order to engage more trainees at an affordable price. It allows and encourages our trainees to take all the classes they can starting with the Principles classes.
