The Pilates Certificate

The Pilates certificate is a 20-credit program that includes coursework in the classic Pilates mat and equipment repertoire, current teaching methods, and functional anatomy. The certificate prepares students to teach Pilates in a studio setting, and also creates a practical foundation for those who wish to pursue graduate work in movement-based fields.

This certificate program is open to all interested students, and is often pursued by students working toward degrees in dance, kinesiology, athletic training, physical therapy, occupational therapy, or other health/fitness fields.

The curriculum can be completed in 2 years. Upon completion, students are encouraged to sit for the Pilates Method Alliance certification exam to earn their credentials as nationally certified Pilates teachers.
