As a studio owner with 20+ years experience I can attest to Power Pilates training. I trained locally and comprehensively with Stott. My second training was through Peak Pilates mentored by and I succesfully help launch and trained as a teacher training for Lifetime Fitness until 2017-18 Being a lifelong learner and wanting the most Clasdical training experience, I flew to Seattle WA to participate in Metropolitan Pilates teacher training with Dorothee Vandewalle until March 2020 (Covid shutdown)
After training through Power Pilates myself and also having other Power Instructors I immediately saw the difference! With Power Pilates instructors were competent & ready to teach!
