Prerequisite Information

STOTT PILATES® students come from all walks of life; from professional health care providers - to dancers, performers and athletes - to lawyers, accountants, power executives and power moms. The unifying principles behind students  from such diverse backgrounds is their discipline and their sincere desire to contribute meaningfully and effectively to the quality of life of those around them.

Regarless of your previous experience, or lack thereof, STOTT PILATES' well conceived training programs, gifted Instructor Trainers and singularly empowering learning tools will propel you with confidence and ease into a career in mind-body fitness.

Some things to keep in mind:
 

To be successful in STOTT PILATES, a working knowledge of Functional Anatomy is a must. If you do not already possess anatomy experience, don't worry. Praxis offers Functional Anatomy courses several times a year.
 
Some experience doing pilates is essential. If you haven't done much pilates before but you are drawn to the mind-body lifestyle, talk to us. We offer introductory packages of classes and sessions to prepare you for the certification program.


Teaching experience is helpful. Ideally, candidates for STOTT PILATES programs have 3 years teaching movement or fitness. Often, we hear students say "how can I get teaching experience without having a certification." It's a real Catch-22 but Praxis has a solution. We offer training programs that incorporate an apprenticeship to help you get experience teaching. Talk to us.
 
 
In-studio career consultation appointments are available.
