Depending on the course level, you also discuss the topics such as anatomy, biomechanics, Pilates principles, correct posture, teaching group and individual classes.
Part II - Completing the Credits
Each participant receives a Credits Card where they collect signatures for each credit that they have finished. Time for completing all of the credits is 1 year (for Comprehensive Course on advanced level – 1,5 year).
Some of the credits are done during 3 additional Credits meetings. Each meeting takes place during one day at weekend. Within these meetings are conducted workshops, seminars and masters’ classes depending on the course level.
Below you will find the description of each credit. ↓
Self practice

Silent workout
The task is to perform Pilates exercise repertoire on given apparatus or on mat to the course teacher. The demonstration happens “in silence”, with no interruptions. Afterwards, the teacher discusses their remarks concerning the training with the student. .
Teaching classes
