Balanced Body acknowledges that many of the top rated instructional programming have value, merit and a level of quality that creates a thriving and diverse instructor population. Though we can not speak to what other programs offer or do not offer, we can speak to what Balanced Body has to offer.
All of Balanced Body educational programs highlight movement principles that are universal to the way the body moves, strengthens and heals, incorporating the most up-to-date biomechanical theories of movement and exercise science. Understanding these principles in relation to the program of study creates a dynamic learning experience which is immediately incorporated into practice. Balanced Body respects the traditions of Joseph H. Pilates’ original works while also incorporating the best of contemporary scientific research, and in so doing students not only learn the exercises, but strategies on how to use the exercises to best meet clients’ individual needs. In addition, with over 240 faculty all over the world, Balanced Body encourages educators coming from diverse backgrounds as the diversity of our team insures diversity of experience for our students.
Finally, Balanced Body prides itself on providing you with the educational tools from which to teach and grow as a practitioner. We do not dictate “how” you should teach, nor do we trap you or limit from whom you take or observe classes during your apprenticeship, or even from whom you fulfill your continuing education credits. We encourage each of you to find your voice, your rhythm and your style as practitioners, which will help empower you to create your place within the Pilates community.
