We welcome experienced Pilates instructors from any school to attend our Comprehensive Program through the ‘Bridge the Gap’ option.   To enable you to teach the classical method with confidence, but still respecting that you have already mastered teaching skills.  Your prior Pilates is taken into account, but your experience should include: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced level training on Mat, Reformer, Chairs, Cadillac, and Barrels.  Applicants are selected based on an interview and a studio work out.

As a Bridge participant you attend the 4-weekend intensives of the Comprehensive Program, but are NOT expected to complete any apprenticeship hours.  You will be required to take only the final 600 hour exam (within a month of completing all 4 weekends). 

If after the audition it is thought necessary to create a more tailored bridge experience then this too is possible. This will be managed on an individual basis and will involve additional fees.
