Hours: Total Work Placement Requirement.

Edited

We believe that physical context and awareness is how you unlock your full teaching potential!

You must feel it, see it and touch it to make sense of it and how you can, in turn, communicate that experience with others. (That’s why we also promote Self-Mastery as part of the process!)

Getting in the Studio is shown to optimise learning outcomes and nurture skilled, capable and confident - industry-leading Pilates professionals.

The Work Placement component may feel daunting at first; however, it is achievable with planning, preparation and commitment. The first step is to understand what is involved and the scope of this requirement.

The above indicate the total Work Placement requirement for each Course or Pathway. Read on to learn more about how these hours are structured and how you can and should approach this part of your Coursework.

For compliance in an accredited Course it is expected that Work Placement activities are completed in the Studio environment, unless there are extenuating accessibility circumstances - wherein alternative arrangements (digital or at-home teaching) may be accessed.

In other words: prioritise and commit to in-Studio, on the job learning.
