FAQ

Observation classes are an essential part of your Pilates training. They provide you with the opportunity to gain more practical experience by observing a variety of different Pilates instructors. This allows you to deepen your practice, see different teaching styles, techniques, and how instructors interact with their students.

Completing these observation classes is crucial because it enhances your understanding of Pilates instruction, and you'll learn new methods and insights that you can incorporate into your own teaching practice. Additionally, you are required to submit an observation log to receive your certification at the end of the training.

You have the flexibility to choose the classes for your observation classes. To support you in this, we offer various options:

Online-Studio: You can take advantage of our online studio at FitLara Online Studio. A one-year membership to this online platform is included in your training fees, allowing you to observe classes from the comfort of your own home.

In-Studio-Classes:  You can also complete 5 observation classes either in person or online at the studio, The Bodyworkers.

Other Studios: Additionally, we recommend exploring other studios for your observation classes. It's quite common to do this, and you can simply ask for observation classes at these studios.

These options ensure that you have ample opportunities to complete your observation classes in a way that suits your schedule and learning preferences.

If you become ill and need to cancel your participation in the Pilates teacher training, the following cancellation terms apply:

More than 91 days before the start date: 25% of the fee is due. 15 to 90 days before the start date: 50% of the fee is due. 14 days or less before the start date: 100% of the fee is due.

These terms ensure that both parties are protected and that you have a clear understanding of the financial implications in case you need to withdraw due to illness.

If you become ill during the training, the following applies: With a doctor's note, you can make up the missed material on your own. We will provide the teaching materials, but it is also advisable to seek tutoring from fellow students.

After successfully attending the modules of the training, you will receive a confirmation of participation. This document acknowledges your attendance and involvement in the training sessions.

However, to obtain a certificate, which holds more significant professional value, you must meet additional requirements. Along with attending the modules, you need to pass the final exam and submit your observation log. The certificate is crucial for several reasons:

It is advantageous to have a certificate when seeking to teach Pilates in studios, as it demonstrates your comprehensive training and qualification.

It is required if you want your classes to be recognized as preventive health classes by organizations such as the ZPP (Zentrale Prüfstelle Prävention).

If you don't pass the exam (though we will work very hard together to ensure you do well), we will find a solution together. We will arrange a makeup exam date to give you another opportunity to succeed. Our goal is to support you throughout the process and help you achieve your certification.

No, you don't necessarily need any previous knowledge to join our Pilates training. However, it is beneficial to have some prior experience with Pilates to determine if you enjoy it and if it suits you. Additionally, a basic understanding of anatomy can be helpful but is not required. Our program is designed to accommodate all levels, from beginners to advanced practitioners, ensuring everyone can learn and grow at their own pace. If you have any further questions or need more information, feel free to reach out to us!
