Intensive Mat Plus
Every Pilates program begins with a strong foundation in Matwork. You will get Complete instruction in STOTT PILATES® principles while learning to teach essential and intermediate exercises with countless modifications. This 40 hour hands-on course is intended for those already working in the fields of fitness or movement.
Each Intensive Level 1 program is further broken down into two modules to accommodate fitness professionals whose schedules or budgets do not allow them to enroll in the entire Level 1 course at one time. You can choose to take Module 1 alone and take Module 2 at a later time so that you can begin your STOTT PILATES education and join a group of elite instructors working around the globe.
