We are committed to fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion in the wellness industry, with a specific focus on increasing representation in our teacher training programs.

Our support options are designed to empower individuals from historically underrepresented and marginalized communities in the Pilates and wellness space. These opportunities are exclusively for those who identify as Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), as well as individuals from diverse cultural, gender, sexual, and ability identities who face systemic barriers to accessing education and professional growth in the wellness industry.

If this resonates with your lived experience and your aspirations, we warmly encourage you to explore and apply for our DEI-focused teacher training education support options. Together, we can build a more inclusive and representative Pilates community.

Diversifying the Pilates Industry Through DEI-Focused Support
