TEST OUT

We provide two options for our certification program:

  1. Module Test-Out: If you wish to focus on specific modules, you can request a test-out for each one. The fee for each module test-out is $150. This allows you to demonstrate your proficiency in individual areas of the curriculum.

  2. Comprehensive Certification: For a more comprehensive certification, you can choose to take the comprehensive package, which includes all modules. The fee for the comprehensive certification is $500. This option involves both a practical test and a written test.

  • The practical test assesses your ability to teach and perform the entire Pilates repertoire. You can choose between two formats for the practical test: *Zoom or a pre-recorded video submission.

  • The written test covers a wide range of topics, including Pilates repertoire, anatomy, and kinesiology.

Both options offer a thorough evaluation of your Pilates knowledge and skills. Whether you want to focus on specific modules or go for the comprehensive certification, we are here to support your Pilates journey.
