The first edition of Moving Just Fine reformer training: Winter 2025

Our 100 hour reformer Pilates teacher training is designed for folks who already have a background in teaching movement to deepen their skillset and add more teaching tools to their toolkit.

We’ll cover the essential Pilates repertoire, give you tools to get creative with your use of the machine, and also put an emphasis on leading joyful and mindful movement.

As with all things Moving Just Fine, this training will prepare you to guide bodies in movement from a place of compassion, curiosity, adaptability, playfulness, and sensitivity.
