About Program Details & Learning Options
My Level 1 Mat certification is not a weekend crash course. It is a 40-hour deep dive into movement science, designed to teach you not just how to perform Pilates, but how to understand the biomechanics behind every single movement. Whether you are a physiotherapist or a newcomer, we focus on practical skills—like effective cueing and repertoire modification—so you walk away ready to teach, not just recite exercises.
A Clinical Approach to Teaching
This program is built on the reality that great instructors do not just copy movements; they understand the 'why' behind them. My team and I prioritize anatomy and biomechanics because that knowledge allows you to modify exercises for any body type, injury, or special population you encounter.
The Curriculum
We break the certification into clear, manageable modules:
- Anatomy Foundation: A mandatory 20-hour online module for those without a medical background, ensuring you understand skeletal structures and joint mechanics before we step onto the mat.
- Level 1 Intensive: A 40-hour contact program covering the full beginner and intermediate mat repertoire. We move beyond choreography into posture analysis, muscle activation, and smart class design.
- Practical Mentorship: You will perform daily teach-back sessions. This is where you learn to master vocal cues and tactile corrections under my supervision.
Flexible Learning Paths
I know that professionals have schedules to manage. We offer two distinct ways to complete your training:
- In-Person Workshops: Held at our Jayanagar studio in Bangalore and periodically in cities like Mumbai, Delhi, and Hyderabad. These offer the most intense hands-on experience.
- Online-Hybrid Model: Designed for students across India, this combines self-paced theory with live practical sessions, ensuring you get the same rigorous feedback as our in-person students.
Who Is This For?
This is for anyone ready to be a serious instructor. It is standard for physiotherapists, yoga teachers, and dancers looking to add depth to their practice, but also for career switchers who are ready to put in the hours required to teach movement safely and effectively.
