Are you a trained Pilates teacher curious about the Classical Method?

If you’re a contemporary or clinical Pilates instructor ready to explore the Classical Pilates system, our Bridging program is for you.

Join us in March 2024 in Adelaide for our Classical Mat training…

WHAT WILL I LEARN?

As a certified teacher, you will learn the Classical Mat-work from a Pre-Pilates to Advanced level. You will you learn the repertoire of exercises and the all important ‘why’ behind the work as well as the beauty of hands on cueing. You’ll learn about Pilates history and anatomy, how to modify the Classical work for injuries, how to advance a client, as well as create a confident voice as a teacher.

The bridging program is a 100 hour commitment, made up of in-studio seminars at the Beginner (and Pre-Pilates), Intermediate and Advanced level. You will get a comprehensive manual that outlines the Classical Mat work up to the Advanced level.

We also offer a robust online supplementation to your in-studio training. This online training includes comprehensive videos of exercises and classes at each level, teaching skills, anatomy and pilates history.

I’m Kim Paxton, founder of The Pilates Studio Teacher Training and owner of The Pilates Studio Blackwood

My background in Pilates started in Canada in 2007 where I became certified in Contemporary Pilates. I loved teaching clients the contemporary method, but it was in 2008 when I attended a PMA conference in the US that I was exposed to, and fell in love with the Classical Method.

Everything I was teaching started to make more sense, I gained the ability to methodically advance my clients and create a way of describing movement using the Classical principles that helped my clients to truly understand the Pilates method. The results I have seen from this understanding have been life-changing for my clients.

Over the past 14 or so years, I have sought out training around the world to further my skills and have trained extensively with several different Classical Pilates schools, which has given me a well rounded approach to the Classical Method.

In 2015 I opened The Pilates Studio Blackwood, the only dedicated Classical Pilates studio in South Australia. I have developed The Pilates Studio Teacher Training, which offers 3 programs: Classical Curious, Classical Mat and Classical Comprehensive. I look forward to introducing you to the power and beauty of the Classical Method.

Hear what Donna-Marie has to say about bridging to the Classical Method…

“That was the best thing about it... We have full access to Kim on an ongoing basis and Kim is always there when we need to ask questions...you’ve got that source for you at the studio and it’s comforting to know that that is there”
