Does the Pilates Teacher Training Program (TTP) at Excel involve both mat and apparatus work?
Our TTP is a comprehensive, 700 hour/one-year training program. It covers all apparatus and mat exercises, includes a teaching manual, covers anatomy, session design, has required readings, and weekly apprentice meetings. Apprenticeship involves practice teaching, observations and the continuation of study/practice of Pilates. There is written and practical testing at the 200, 400, and 600 intervals. There are four 20-hour weekend seminars. All hours are completed in the studio. We do not do partial certifications, i.e. mat certification.
