Mat Course
About
Our in depth Mat Pilates Certification will take place over five weekends, spread out over an 8-week period.
The first weekend of your Mat Certification will be a deep dive into anatomy and physiology. This course has been designed with specific relevance to Pilates teaching & does not require prior knowledge.
In the weeks following the anatomy weekend you will begin your exercise learning and practice teaching. We will cover 90+ contemporary and traditional mat Pilates exercises and stretches.
You will also learn about common injuries and how to modify, as well as class planning and exercise sequencing.
Bodylove Academy courses are currently undergoing the accreditation process through leading national exercise educations bodies: Fitness Australia and ESSA
