  • Our goal is to keep the price of Teacher Training reasonable for our students. Most of our Training Programs run between $1500 and $5500, and meet the requirements set forth by the NPCP®.

    Ultimately, each Host Studio and Master Educator set the prices for Teacher Training.

    Please reach out to us at: training@thepilatesteam.com for more information.

    The average cost of Pilates Teacher Training in the U.S. is $3,000 to $7,000.

  • Great question! This one is tricky.

    According to the National Pilates Certification Program (NPCP®) there is no such thing as an accreditation or approval process for Pilates Training Programs.

    There are however a set of guidelines and standards set forth by the International Teacher Training Approval Program (ITTAP®). Check out those guidelines here: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/66736cd7aee83a7a69697864/t/673fb151128826230c1dc178/1732227409716/Curriculum+Compliance+Comparison+to+ITTAP.pdf

    As long as the program meets or exceeds the standards set by the ITTAP® it is acknowledged by the NPCP®.

  • Generally, 6 months to 1 year depending on the students level of commitment to completing the necessary pre and post lecture training requirements.
