Get hands-on with the “nuts + bolts” of the Pilates Method in-person. These sessions are led by Pilates ITC Educators and explore:
Your on-the-job learning! Watch, practice, explore. (WP hours are determined according to credited qualification.)
Observation hours: watch and learn observing the pros at work.
Teaching hours: practice teaching friends, family and other Students (self-scheduled); and co-instructing (shadowing) qualified Instructors.
Teaching Clinics (optional): hone teaching skills, boost confidence and expedite teaching hours under supervision.
The “studying” part. Access our mixed-media resources to work your assessment schedule at your own pace. (Assessment requirement is determined according to credited qualification.)
Why RPL?
If you have completed Pilates Instructor training with another education body, or have other formal movement- or science-based qualification(s) from Australia or overseas you may be eligible for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL).
RPL can be applied to credit your existing experience against accredited Pilates ITC units to expedite your course completion (and save you money in the process!); OR to honour your experience in non-accredited Pilates courses, and set you up to formalise your existing qualification.
How do you begin?
RPL is a thorough and personalised process, our team is on hand to walk you through your options and find your best fit with Pilates ITC.

Self-mastery: learning the Pilates Method in your own body by doing classes, is compulsory part of your course and attracts additional cost as determined by our Instructor Training- and Work Placement Studios. (Our affiliates generously offer PITC Students discounted rates on SM – however is set at their discretion.)
Meeting self-scheduled teaching hours can be one of the more challenging logistical aspects of Work Placement (finding bodies and time and space to suit all of the above!)
Teaching Clinics (optional) were developed to lighten this load by giving Students more opportunities to workshop their teaching skills in an Educator-supported environment, and bank WP hours in the process.
• Practice on a large group (simulate real-world group class!)
• Work through the aspects of repertoire that are challenging for you.
• Workshop ideas with your peers and Educators.
• Get feedback.
• Feel confident in your teaching skills!
Better still, each Teaching Clinic hour equals two hours of approved teaching experience.
1 hour = 2 hours of teaching experience.
Teaching Clinics run for five (5) hours in total and are delivered in clinic format against set topics (units of competency), so you can complete 10 hours of WP in one session! These sessions can be added to your schedule any time for only $75 per session: booked at point of enrolment or later!
