Career as a Fitness Instructor
April 2008
I'm planning to switch careers and become a Pilates instructor,
which I'm really passionate about. Are there any Pilates
instructors out there who can give some advice about which
studio to do my training at, and how easy it is to find work
once certified? Every studio seems to have a slightly different
philosophy and it's difficult to know which is best. Do studio
owners really care where you get your training, or are
personality and ability more important? Is there anything else
I should know about the field before embarking on this career
path?

Hi,
I am in the process of my Pilates training at Synergy Fitness
Studio on Solano Avenue in Albany.Though I''m not carreer
changing, I'm adding on to my Massage Therapy practice. I've
completed my class work and am starting my apprenticeship
hours...I also am working on my observing adn assistant
teaching hours. It's total a 500 hour course before I''m
certified.

Nora St John at Turning Point Studios is excellent. She does
the regular instructor training and also supplemental training
for pilates based injury prevention and rehab.
