If you are part of our mentor program, you can utilize our ALIGN east studio location, our Teacher Training Center, to fulfill your hours within the peer group and possibly have the chance to become an employee at our Teacher Training Center, where you have the opportunity to teach privates in classes and get paid while you are fulfilling your hours.

If you are not part of our mentor program, you will ask your friends, your family, and anyone you know to let them teach you so that you can fulfill your student teaching hours. Anytime you take a Pilates class anywhere, either online, within a studio, or on your own, you can count those towards your personal practice hours. You must also fulfill observation hours, so you will reach out to studios around town to see if you can come to observe or watch classes online to meet these hours. Often studios outside our Teacher Training Center will require you to pay a rental fee to use their studio equipment to fulfill your student teaching hours.
