At Pilates Thierry, we don’t just teach Pilates—we train the next generation of instructors to lead with confidence, precision, and creativity.
Our Teacher Training program offers a comprehensive, hands-on experience that prepares you to teach dynamic, effective Pilates classes with a strong foundation in both technique and personal expression.
Our training blends the best elements of
contemporary Pilates with fitness-focused techniques. This approach strikes the perfect balance between classical Pilates and modern fitness, allowing you to teach a variety of styles while ensuring smooth, seamless transitions between exercises. You will learn how to engage your clients with flowing movements and a carefully structured class that maximizes results.
Throughout your training, you’ll dive deep into:
• Fluid Transitions: Mastering the art of smooth, uninterrupted transitions that keep your class
flowing effortlessly from one exercise to the next. We emphasize the importance of engaging
your students mentally and physically throughout the session, ensuring no time is wasted.
• Breath-work and Alignment: Learning to incorporate breath-work with precise alignment,
helping your clients connect deeply with each movement and improve their overall performance.
• Creating Effective Workouts: Understanding how to design classes that balance core, lower
body, and arm work, creating a full-body “Pilates burn” with minimal equipment and high-
repetitions, low-weight moves.
• Client Connection: Developing the skills to connect with your students on a personal level—
whether it’s through hands-on corrections, meaningful compliments, or storytelling that builds
trust and community. You’ll learn how to create an inclusive environment where every student
feels acknowledged and supported.
• Diverse Instructional Styles: Drawing from a wide range of Pilates techniques, including
Reformer, Mat, Chair, Cadillac, and more, you’ll be prepared to teach a variety of classes that
cater to different client needs and fitness levels.
Under the mentorship of Ashley Thierry, an instructor with over 13 years of experience and 19 Pilates qualifications, you’ll receive expert guidance and support as you refine your teaching abilities. Ashley’s diverse background and commitment to education have shaped her unique approach to Pilates teacher training, blending her extensive knowledge of fitness and Pilates with a focus on creating engaging, well-rounded workouts.
Our Teacher Training program not only equips you with the technical skills to teach but also
empowers you to bring your unique personality and passion to every class you lead. With a
variety of music, personalized instruction, and a focus on building a supportive community, our
training program offers an enriching and inspiring experience for aspiring Pilates instructors.
