FAQ
Answers
What do I need before Studio Equipment + Clinical Pilates?
A formal Mat or Reformer qualification. Either one is enough; you do not need both.
Which apparatus does Studio Equipment cover?
Trapeze Table (Cadillac), Wunda Chair, Ladder Barrel and Spine Corrector. Choose individual apparatus or the full bundle.
Are Studio Equipment and Barre the same length as Mat and Reformer?
Yes. Each is published at 250+ hours and shares the same 17-module theory curriculum, the same apprentice hour structure and the same assessment timing.
Is Barre formally recognised?
No formal external recognition applies to the Barre qualification. You graduate with a Body Form Education Barre Teacher Training certificate. Mat, Reformer and Studio Equipment share the recognition described on the recognition page.
Who are the CPD certifications for?
Qualified Pilates instructors (and eligible health professionals) who are insured to teach. They do not replace an entry-level teacher training qualification.
How long do I keep access to a CPD certification?
Unlimited access to the course materials, so you can return as your teaching evolves.
Can I complete more than one CPD certification?
Yes. Enrol in as many as you like and complete them at your own pace.
