I recently had someone drop me a contact request for Pilates Teacher Training information and thought she had some great questions that might be helpful to post in my Centerworks Pilates blog.
Think I may turn this into a regular section and update & add posts with questions as they come in.
It’s so important that students interested in making the transition from client to Pilates teacher ask good questions and gather lots of information before making the decision about who to enroll with for their Pilates Teacher Training Workshops and apprenticeship.
With the commitment of time, energy, and finances it takes to invest in your Pilates education – you want to be sure you’ve found the best program for you!

I had a blast teaching Shoulder Mechanics and Fantastic Feet workshops in Little Rock in April, as well as a Matwork master class. Thanks to the fantastic group of students and teachers that participated in these workshops!
I am looking forward to being back in Little Rock for a full series of Centerworks Pilates Teacher-Training Workshops starting the end of June.
If you’re interested in these courses, you can download the flyer & registration forms at: Centerworks Pilates Teacher Training Program Info Flyer for 2008-2009 Little Rock Workshops
If you have questions, drop me a comment on the blog, or email me a question with the contact form at http://centerworks-pilates.com/contact.html
Hope to see you in a workshop soon!

Blessed to have had an excellent first teacher (David Mooney) and to have had the opportunity to study with many great teachers and most of the Pilates elders.
