600-Hour Teacher Training Program
An Immersion in the Master's Method
To Donna Longo, sharing the knowledge of Joseph Pilates is an honor, a privilege and a joy. While the popularity of the method continues to grow and more and more companies are willing to hire instructors from a weekend certification program, the standards she believes are important to upholding the integrity of Joseph Pilates’ teachings are being diluted.
Her goal is to provide a program of study dedicated to the education of each student through mentorship, formal lectures and apprentice-style teaching to foster confidence while developing your unique teaching style. Donna strives to keep the program accessible and affordable to anyone who has the true passion to learn and share this Method. She hopes to inspire appreciation for and aspiring mastery of this method while you embark on this lifelong journey as a teacher of Classical Pilates.
The structure of our program has changed to an Independent Study and Mentorship model. This is an alternative to the weekend lecture series however, is still a Comprehensive training program requiring 600 hours, written and practical tests. Please see our brochure for more information, and feel free to call with questions.
