What is cueing? It’s the heart of the Method as a unique mind-body discipline. It’s complex and powerfully individual (check out Pilates Cuing is An Art insights from industry leaders). That’s what makes it so very interesting!
“Intelligent course design”: it is about access and equity. We want our courses to be accessible to all people, from all walks of life. And life, as we know all too well, can be messy! Our courses have been designed to be completed, like all vocational training, parallel to a full-time work commitment as standard. […]
We’ve talked about Pilates “mastery” being the product of years of (ongoing) study, and seeking out knowledge. So, here’s part two: nine books you should be reading on your journey toward Pilates mastery.
Pilates mastery is earned, not bought. “Mastery” shouldn’t be confused with the practical “doing” of Pilates: learning choreography and pedagogy. There’s so much more to it. After all, just because you’ve got the moves, doesn’t mean you’ve mastered them. Underneath professional delivery is mastery from years of (ongoing) study that comes only from investing in […]
The misconception that Pilates is somehow a feminine discipline perhaps comes from the fact it was adopted early, in the mainstream, by the dance community: a traditionally female industry. In actual fact, Joseph Pilates used the Method to train army troops, interned prisoners and men from all walks of life, as much if not more […]

You better believe Pilates ITC Faculty and our Directors practice what they preach when it comes to Continuing Education!

We’ve rebooted this archived blog from 2014, written by Director Frances Cahill, detailing her month of Pilates heaven working with some […]
In early June 2019, renowned Scoliosis specialist Helen New paid a visit to Pilates ITC HQ in Perth to deliver a series of Studio sessions and the main event, Curvy Bodies: A Scoliosis Workshop, for WA Instructors and Students. Continuing Ed isn’t “just for” qualified, experienced Instructors; to illustrate this point we sat down with Pilates ITC WA Educator, Lora Rainey and Diploma Graduate, Nikki Ramm to reflect on their CE experience with Helen New.

Building a social media presence while training to become a Pilates Instructor is not for everyone, but for those “socially” inclined, there are many benefits. Of course, there are some good and bad ways to approach it. Here are our tips to be successful, while staying authentic.
The 2022 Federal Budget brought with it a welcome incentive for Australian small to medium sized business to invest in training and upskilling staff. The “Skills and Training Boost” equates to 20% of eligible expenses, meaning if a small business spends $100 on training employees will get a $120 tax deduction. This includes investing in education offerings provided by Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) like Pilates ITC and Pilates ITC Online. But what does that mean for you? How does that affect Pilates Instructor Training? Read on to learn more.
The Pilates specialist industry has seen many changes over the last few years, going from rapid growth and government recognition to studios closing their doors due to COVID-19. I think we all agree that we need to find ways to strengthen our industry and get us back on track to making Pilates accessible to everyone, and develop strong successful Pilates professionals.

As two modalities that share the goal of helping people to move better, reduce pain and feel better in their body, physiotherapy and the Pilates Method have a lot in common. We also train lots of physiotherapists to become Pilates Instructors to add to their skills-mix. It’s a match made in (movement) heaven. The federal […]

OBSERVE. PRACTICE. EXPERIENCE. Becoming a Pilates Instructor requires an experiential, personal engagement with the subject matter by watching and learning, practicing teaching skills, and feeling “the work” in your own body (also known as Self-Mastery). Our Students’ Work Placement (WP) requirement is dually supported by our home-base Instructor Training Studios and network of Work Placement […]

Work Placement (WP) is all about creating real-life context for- and applying- what you learn in Course Delivery sessions and from your own study (Self-Directed Learning) of the course content. At Pilates ITC, we believe that learning how to teach the Method of Pilates without physical context and experience, unlocks only a shadow (pun intended!) […]

“Self-care”: it’s so much more than a product of the wellness industry. At its core, self-care is any activity undertaken with intention to improve and or maintain our mental, emotional and physical health. We see this very concept in the Workplace Health and Safety unit (HLTWHS001) of our Diploma of Professional Pilates Instruction and associated Instruction Pathways. In this blog, we explore the importance of self-care for Instructors, in an operational context, and ask you to identify activities, practices and consider strategies for supporting your wellbeing as a professional.
