Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to attend every weekend?
Yes. Attendance at all scheduled training days is required to complete the certification.
Because the program builds week by week, missing a session can make it difficult to stay on track. If you are unable to attend all dates, we recommend joining a future training.
What is the refund policy?
All training payments are non-refundable.
Because space in the program is limited and your spot is reserved once payment is made, we are unable to offer refunds, transfers, or credits for missed sessions.
How many people are in each training?
Training groups are kept small (no more than 10 to a cohort) to allow for hands-on instruction and individual feedback.
This helps ensure each student gets the support needed to feel confident teaching by the end of the program.
Will I get to practice teaching?
Yes. Practice teaching is part of the program.
Students will have the opportunity to lead exercises, work with other trainees, and receive feedback throughout the training so they feel prepared to teach real classes.
Will I be certified after the program?
Yes. Students who complete all required training days and meet the program requirements will receive a Pilates instructor certification from Be Kind Studios.
Certification confirms that you have completed our in-person training program and demonstrated the ability to safely lead a class.
Is a job at Be Kind guaranteed after the training?
No. Completing the training does not guarantee a teaching position at Be Kind Studios.
However, graduates who demonstrate strong teaching ability, professionalism, and reliability may be considered for future opportunities when they become available.
What should I do if I have more questions?
If you have questions before applying, feel free to contact us.
We’re happy to help you decide if this training is the right fit.
Do I need experience to join the training?
No prior teaching experience is required. This program is designed for students who want to become instructors, as well as those who want a deeper understanding of Pilates.
You should be comfortable taking Pilates classes and familiar with basic movement, but you do not need to be advanced.
