Retreats for Pilates Teachers

We have gathered all our knowledge, experience and enthusiasm to share with you this Pilates retreat for Pilates teachers. As with our previous  retreats, this one is going to be hosted in the Monastery in the South of France.

We have planned a program that will take you from the beginners to the advanced series, as well as additional exercises. There are progressions and variations as well as insights we have gained over years of our own teaching and practice. We offer you the opportunity to expand your practice and your teaching potential.

There will be other activities as well as free time to enjoy all this location offers. The programme will get you stronger, give you space to relax, help deepen your connection to your body and sharpen constructive self awareness... Of course, as Pilates teachers, we will help you refine and extend what you can offer your students. 

 

Building on reflection periods during the retreat, you can return with a different perspective and sharper skills when you get back to your routine."
