## About Fletcher Pilates Teacher Training & Certification

### Why I Teach Fletcher Pilates

My path started with dance, took a detour through injury, and landed me in Pilates when I needed it most. I believe, like Ron Fletcher did, that every body is beautiful. My aim isn’t to shrink you or make you fit into a box. It’s to help you feel strong, aware, and at home in your own skin, even when things get messy or unpredictable. Sometimes a class is full, sometimes only one person shows up - that's life, na? But the real work is in showing up and learning, no matter what.

### What This Training Offers

This is the first Fletcher Pilates Matwork India course. It’s the exact same international Pilates teaching certification I earned in Arizona. The training is rooted in Ron Fletcher Pilates lineage, with a focus on movement that’s both powerful and graceful. We go deep - not just “do asanas”, but understanding why each movement matters. The course covers all 32 Matwork exercises, Fletcher Fundamentals training, and Percussive Breathing Pilates course techniques.

### Who This Is For

- Aspiring instructors, movement professionals, dancers, and yoga teachers
- Serious Pilates students ready for the next level
- Anyone curious about movement, anatomy, and wellness from a fresh angle

### What To Expect

The course is mostly online, so you can join from anywhere. There are also in-person sessions in Bangalore for hands-on practice. You get supported, guided, and by the end, you’ll be part of a worldwide Fletcher Pilates community - plus, you’ll understand your own body in a totally new way.

## Meet your expert

### My story

Hey, I'm Akshata. Movement’s been my thing since forever – started with dance, then Fletcher Pilates found me in Arizona. Came back to India, first one here teaching it, felt totally lost at first – just two folks in my first class! Running this as a business? Not easy. But I stuck to my gut. I’m not here to sell weight loss – I just want you to feel strong and good in your own skin. Every body’s beautiful, bas (that’s it).

### My work

- **Fletcher Pilates classes & workshops**: I run virtual workshops, offline mat classes, and Pilates & dance fusion sessions. All levels welcome.
- **Beginner-friendly and open to all**: Never tried Pilates? No problem. My classes are for dancers, yoga teachers, office folks, anyone curious about moving better.
- **Focus on awareness and posture**: We work on breath, alignment, those tiny muscles, and real-life movement. It’s about understanding your body.
- **Fletcher Pilates teacher training**: I offer virtual, internationally certified teacher training for anyone in India wanting to teach Fletcher Pilates.
