Pilates Teacher Training FAQ
Pilates Teacher Training
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.
All our online Pilates teacher training certification modules must be joined online live.
You must be present, have your camera on, and participate during the entire module. Everyone taking our online modules is only taking online, and people join us for these online Pilates certification modules worldwide. The fact that we teach these only online live allows us to display our participants in a large format, which makes the experience very similar to in-person modules.
You can expect to connect to everyone online in the training program and form friendships you will carry on in your Pilates teacher training journey. You also have the opportunity to join our online mentor program, which will help you stay on track to fulfill the required personal practice, student teaching, and observation hours necessary to apply to test out.
Our mission is to guide and support our online learners just as we do with our in-person learners. Separating the two learning methods has proven to be a very effective way to learn all the necessary skills to become an excellent Pilates instructor, whether you choose our online option or in person.

What Does The Mentor Program Include?
Mentor Classes
There are two weekly classes available exclusively for members of the Mentor Program. Unlike regular Pilates classes, these classes stick to the manual material to help you properly learn how to do the exercises and teach them to your students. This ensures that you have a solid foundation to start teaching and helps you pass your final exam.
Open Studio Times
Take advantage of our well-equipped studio to practice at your convenience. We offer open studio hours four days a week, allowing you to schedule your own time and come in to practice. You can use our equipment and join any of our on-demand classes (which count towards your self-practice hours), practice your own programming to see how it flows (also self-practice hours), or collaborate with other peers in the Mentor Program to practice your teaching skills (these count towards your practice teaching hours). This offer is exclusively for local residents.
Observation Hours
You will have the opportunity to observe our teachers in action as they teach in our studios. As a participant, you will be a silent observer during class while also assisting the instructor with greeting clients, setting up equipment, and experiencing firsthand what goes on in a real-life studio setting. This experience will provide you with ideas for teaching and cueing, as well as fulfilling your required observation hours.
Practice Teaching Hours
Participants in our program are provided with exclusive time on Saturdays to hone their teaching skills by practicing with each other. These sessions are overseen by Brooke, who offers valuable tips and guidance to help participants improve.
Teaching Labs
Join us for our workshops, where we delve into specific topics such as common injuries, Pilates for pregnancy, when to advance clients, tips for retaining clients, and more. These workshops provide an opportunity to expand your knowledge and enhance your skills.
On-Demand Video Library
Our Mentor Program video library is a valuable resource that provides you with recordings of all our mentor classes. This means you have the flexibility to review the content at your convenience, giving you the power to learn and grow on your own terms. Additionally, our platform offers “teaching labs” that you can access to deepen your understanding and enhance your skills. With these tools at your fingertips, there’s no limit to what you can achieve.
