After You Qualify
Unlike traditional Pilates schools, our goal is to train instructors who can follow the Sentiré Pilates career path, with opportunities to progress within our company.
Successful graduates may have the opportunity to join Sentiré Pilates as instructors. Having trained within our Academy, you will already be familiar with our studio, equipment and standards, creating a natural transition into your role.
We believe instructors should experience Pilates from the client’s perspective. That is why students receive 1,000 points, worth £1,000, for Reformer, Circuit, or Private mentoring sessions. Great teachers train what they teach, so your practice at Sentiré Pilates is on us.
The programme runs to more than 550 hours of material and practice, ahead of most comprehensive courses on the market, and every hour of it is built around teaching real clients rather than passing an exam.
The Faculty
Every module you study was written and is taught by our own instructors. Between them they bring degrees in kinesiology, physiotherapy, sport science and professional dance, decades of studio teaching, and clinical experience that runs from NHS rehabilitation wards to the Olympic podium.
Chartered physiotherapy, NHS placements from musculoskeletal outpatients to neuro intensive care, and the combined clinical education and experience our tutors bring across rehabilitation settings. It is why we teach you why an exercise works before how it looks.
