We asked, and Dr. Brent answered.

Pathokinesiology is a year-long online certification from Dr. Brent Anderson, physical therapist and founder of Polestar Pilates. The certification dives into the science, with a clinical framework for thinking about how injury, illness, disease, and trauma can impact movement and quality of life.

You might be wondering:
❓ What was Dr. Brent's inspiration for creating the Pathokinesiology certification?
❓ What does it mean to be a Pathokinesiologist?
❓ How does Pathokinesiology complement Pilates?

A year of learning, growth, and community in Taiwan 🌟

What can happen in just one year when a commitment to education is paired with collaboration, curiosity, and a shared vision?

Meet Jack and Sandy of Centric Pilates, who began working together a year ago to bring STOTT PILATES® education to support Taiwan's rapidly growing Pilates community. Since launching their first course in January, they're on track to deliver 23 sold out courses by the end of the year.

But for Jack and Sandy, building a successful education program is about much more than filling courses.

Their vision is to bring world-class STOTT PILATES education to Taiwan while helping develop highly trained instructors with strong professional foundations and an international perspective.

As they developed the program, Jack and Sandy actively sought advice from experienced ITs and visited successful education teams at The Orange Room in Shanghai and Blute Pilates in Hong Kong to learn from their experiences.

That spirit of collaboration is at the heart of a strong education community: Academy Partners learning from one another and looking for ways to continuously improve the learning experience for their students.

Jack and Sandy apply that philosophy of continuous improvement and collaboration to every phase of the learning journey. They personally attend every course, learning from every Instructor Trainer and student they meet. Believing that education shouldn't end when a course finishes, they're building lasting relationships, supporting students throughout the certification journey, and creating a community where instructors can continue to learn, connect, and grow.

More than 10 instructors have already completed their Full Certification exams this year, with another 10+ registered to take theirs. Jack and Sandy have also completed their own Full Certification exams along the way.

Their philosophy says it all:

Listen. Learn. Improve. Progress.

Jack and Sandy, we're proud to see your vision come to life and grateful for the collaboration, commitment, and passion you're bringing to the STOTT PILATES community in Taiwan and beyond. 💙
