Couples Health: Finding a pilate's Instructor

What it is

What it Does

How to Find it

How do I find a qualified Pilates instructor?

 

It is important to distinguish qualified versus non-qualified individuals who claim to have expertise in Pilates. With the growing demand for Pilates instructors as seen in videos and gyms, many individuals are tempted to call themselves Pilates instructors after only having attended a weekend or weeklong course.


Just because the instructor took a 1 week course doesn't mean they know what they are doing.


 


These are not individuals you should entrust your body to. As with everything else in life, what you pay is what you get. Ideally, the individual has received certification from an in-depth training institution with at least a yearlong diverse training regimen including Pilates principles, movement mechanics, physical therapy assessment, anatomy and physiology, and rehabilitation. The list could go on, but you realize that a true Pilates instructor has to have education and experience, just as you’d expect from a physical therapist or a doctor. Don’t trust your body to someone who isn’t completely devoted to rigorous training and continuing education.

Back pain, headaches, depression, and all health problems are contributed to and are contributed by bad posture and poor body mechanics. Improving one will no doubt improve the other, which is why emphasizing efficiency of movement helps. We all want to feel and look younger, and devoting time to learning how to reengineer our mind and body is a wonderful lifetime journey we can all take together.

It’s by no means a short-term fix, as anything effective or meaningful in life rarely is. However, as you institute each exercise that we provide in the studio and studios you may visit, you will find your breathing, your posture, your body, and of course your self-confidence begin to journey into new uncharted territory. Enjoy!
