Become an Instructor

Become a Pilates instructor through our collaboration with Den Intelligente Krop and their Pilates Reformer instructor training programme. Studio owner Lotta Steuch completed her own training there, and we have found that participants who attend courses, workshops and instructor training programmes with Den Intelligente Krop develop into skilled instructors with their own individual style and approach.

A Brief Overview of the Training

The Pilates Reformer Instructor Training is based on Balanced Body’s educational materials, enriched with extensive additional knowledge and experience from the skilled instructors at Den Intelligente Krop.

The training is structured as a programme consisting of three modules, plus a Pre-Pilates course if you do not already have a Pilates Matwork qualification. The modules are scheduled with time in between for reflection and practice. After completing Module 1, you are already ready to start teaching — and the sooner you begin teaching, the more quickly you will develop as an instructor.

The purpose of the training is to qualify you to instruct individuals, groups and a broad range of clients, helping them get the full benefit of Reformer training. After completing all three modules, you have the opportunity to take a final examination and obtain an international certification. The total training requirement to become a certified “Balanced Body Reformer Instructor” is 200 hours. That may sound like a lot, but once you get hooked, the time really does fly by!

Self-Practice, Observation & Teaching Practice at HoP

Throughout the training, it is important to put what you learn into practice. This is where HoP comes in. If you are looking for a place to practise, observe classes and perhaps gain experience teaching small Reformer groups, we would be happy to help you make it happen.

Our only expectation is that you purchase a class pass (minimum 5 credits) so that you can participate in our classes. We will then fit observation, self-practice and teaching practice into the HoP class schedule at no additional cost.
