CURRENT STUDENT FAQ

CURRENT STUDENT IN- PERSON MODEL

Simply put, you are committing to a minimum of 2 days a week of in-studio training for a semester. For most after 4 semesters they learned an independent Pilates practice and passed the comprehensive exam to become a graduate.   A graduate earns the privilege to use the equipment in “Open Studio” workouts.

We understand the pricing is very attractive.  $395 for 3 privates and nearly unlimited classes at a 6:1 ratio is a crazy deal!  

Yet,  you will not be successful in this model unless you are committed to getting the Pilates in your body. This mean learning the exercise names, order, how to customized and modified for your body.  You will be asked to learn basic exercise science, human anatomy, how to make your own workouts, and when you need privates/ hands-on.  You are truly going to become a student of Classical Pilates.

The last a biggest commitment is you need to have time in your schedule to commit to 2 weekly regular training session for the length of the semester.  These two training dates are the same day and time EVERY WEEK.  We can accommodate the occasional work trip/ family vacation.  Yet if you can not attend the 2 required class/ session a week you will not be successful in this program. 

Independent workout are are personalized sessions done in studio when a teacher can closely supervise. This is a pseudo-private session.  As you learn more about developing your own Pilates practice, you will start creating your own workouts. 

Open Studio is earned after pass a system test.  You are limited to the level you have last test out of.  After completing the In-person School Model you are automatically become an Open Student membership able to workout without supervise for $185 Graduate Open Studio membership. 

CURRENT TRADITIONAL MODEL

School models is based on a higher teacher to student ratio, while all traditional models are 1-on-1 ratio.  Traditional session are focus on you and only you, but this come with a high price per session (approx $125 an hour)

You should take at least one session a week to see consistent results. Twice a week to three times a week is better.

We evaluate these request on a case by case basis.  Unfortunately there is a limit to what we can offer in this model.  We will do our best.  Book a consultation and contact us at info@pilatesschoolsf.com to let us know you need a discount.

Once your teacher clears you, yes! For most it can take at least 5 private sessions.  Your teacher will clear you for the classes you can take appropriate to your level.  Classes are sold in packs of 8 for $300.

Of course.  Some folk just prefer private session as their learning environment to high intermediate Pilates practice.  All you have to do is let your teacher know this is one of your goals.
