Considering signing up for our upcoming Reformer Intensive to deepen your Pilates practice – or possibly become a teacher yourself? We've got a few open spots remaining for this experience, which starts Oct. 30 in the studio! Here's what one of our instructors—Jennifer Yeatts—has to say about this training, which she completed in 2020 after several years of taking Pure Pilates classes.

"If you'd have asked me then, or anytime prior, whether
I'd ever consider becoming a fitness instructor of any kind, I'm sure
I would have said no! Even though I have lots of classroom experience and am comfortable teaching, I never considered that those skills might be transferable to a very different setting. But when Pure Pilates owner Jen Cutler whispered in my ear that she thought I’d be a good instructor, something clicked. I thought, sure! I had experienced the benefits of Pilates personally and the idea of adding a layer of expertise to my belt was appealing.

I had certainly been introduced to Pilates principles with my own
introductory sessions at the studio, but the teacher training dove
deep into each one, breaking down the intricacies of body awareness and deepening my mind-body connection. Despite some initial nerves about teaching classes, once I'd gone through the training and logged several practice hours, I was tossed into the teaching mix when a former instructor departed suddenly. And of course, that's the best way to solidify your own learning – by teaching someone else! The training provided sample routines, support with how to plan programming, and extensive practice one-on-one. So, when it was time for me to build my own class routines and step in front of a class for the first time, it all came together."

🧘‍♀️ Let us know if you'd like to join the training—we would love to see you there! Learn more at purepilatestc.com/teacher-training/ or text Jennifer C. at 231-218-484.

Katie Hauser’s Pilates practice started in April 2024, about a year after the 43-year-old Traverse City resident began what she describes as a weight-loss journey. Her Pure Pilates practice has positively impacted her life in numerous ways, she says.

“Mentally, Pilates has taught me how to pay attention to my body, where I am in space, and what parts are doing what in that process. And physically, I feel stronger. I can actually feel muscles in my arms and legs. It has become such a huge part of my life for maintaining my body physically and mentally.”

"I can’t say enough good things about Pure Pilates," Katie adds. "Every instructor I have come across has been exceptional and knowledgeable."
