Mat Pilates and GAINS Teacher Training

Eclipse Hot Yoga’s 200-hour Pilates teacher training program is grounded in the concepts and methodology of classical mat pilates, with an additional focus on strength training.  This training will prepare you teach classes that incorporate the precision and control fundamental to pilates as well as classes based on compound full-body movements designed to build strength, such as GAINS.  Anatomy, biomechanics and exercise physiology will be covered in depth. We will prepare you to teach safe, challenging and effective classes. 

Program Curriculum

The training will consist of in-person weekend workshops in which you’ll engage in group discussions, subject review, and have ample opportunity to  practice and refine your teaching skills.  In between workshop weekends, there will be learning modules and assessments designed to prepare you for the in-person sessions and cement your learning.

“Monya and Patty are deeply knowledgeable and intentional in their approach, creating an environment where individuals are supported in reaching their goals with both precision and purpose. They also know how to challenge you; they push me, make me sweat, and consistently take me beyond what I think I can do. I look forward to bringing that same energy, accountability, and motivation into my own teaching.”
