Specialise in the most sought-after skill in the studio. The Level 3 Reformer Pilates course gives you the specialist knowledge and hands-on skills to teach reformer-based Pilates — the premium, equipment-based format boutique studios can't hire fast enough — so you can stand out as a specialist and command higher rates than mat alone.
One nationally recognised qualification, six specialist units, and everything you need to teach safe, effective reformer Pilates in studios, gyms and boutique settings.
Reformer Pilates is the boom story of the fitness industry. Boutique reformer studios are opening everywhere, classes sell out, and qualified reformer instructors are in short supply — which means strong demand, and premium rates, for those who hold the qualification.
The Level 3 Reformer Pilates course gives you the advanced knowledge and practical expertise to teach reformer-based sessions safely and effectively in professional studio environments. You’ll learn the full reformer repertoire, how to set up and adjust the machine, how to structure progressive classes, and how to adapt exercises for clients of all abilities. It’s the natural next step for a qualified mat Pilates instructor — and it positions you for the best-paid, most in-demand work in the studio space.
This course is the perfect fit if you're:
A qualified mat Pilates instructor ready to specialise
Wanting to teach in boutique reformer studios
Looking to command higher rates as a specialist instructor
Keen to broaden the classes and clients you can offer
Building toward running your own reformer sessions or studio
