Every employer or client requires specific professional qualifications. You need to become a certified Pilates instructor before you start teaching, and you must demonstrate strong skills in the practice before you start a teacher certification course. You can earn a certificate as a mat instructor, or you can obtain a comprehensive Pilates certificate. Comprehensive certification takes longer than mat certification, but it qualifies you to teach all levels and methods of Pilates. Your certification course needs to be recognized by the Pilates Method Alliance, the governing body for Pilates. Employers and insurers also require that you have CPR certification.
