Program Description

Work one-on-one with a Master Instructor to expand your capacity and confidence in the art of teaching. 

  • Newly certified and wondering how to translate what you learned in class to working with clients? 
    Mentorship can be a bridge from the training program to your new career.

  • Feeling stuck working with a client and wondering if a new approach would help? 
    A mentor can offer you their insight based on their decades of experience.

  • Curious how to build group classes that fill consistently? 
    We all have our own flavor, but there are attributes of a successful group class teacher you can build!  Observe multiple teachers in action and develop your unique skill set with a mentor.

Application Process

How do I get started?

  1. Fill out an interest form.

  2. Once we receive your form, we’ll contact you to schedule a studio visit with Julia, studio owner and mentorship program director.  You’ll discuss where you are in your teaching journey, your goals for mentorship, and how the studio can support you. 

  3. Start with a trial week.  Upon signing the mentorship agreement and submitting a deposit, you’ll have a trial week of access to observe and take group classes.  

  4. Commit to your first month!  At the end of the trial week let us know your top choices for a mentor.  We’ll get the details of scheduling sorted, and then your first month of mentorship will begin!

Program limited to 1-3 mentees per month. Apply early to ensure your spot!

Program components

  1. Goal planning session at the start of your mentorship to set your intentions and focus. 

  2. Progress mapping session at the end of each month to see how far you’ve come!

  3. A weekly one-hour 1:1 meeting with your mentor. 
    Whether you want to review certain exercises, problem-solve something that came up during teaching, get expert advice on working with an injury or special condition, or practice teaching and get real time feedback, this is the place to deeply dive in and expand your teaching.  

  4. Studio access for observation, self-practice, and practice teaching.
    As a  fully-equipped studio with multiple cadillacs, reformers, chairs, towers, and arcs, Corpo Kinetic offers ample room to see and practice a full repertoire of exercises.  Watch our team of teachers in action, both leading group classes and teaching privates to clients with a variety of rehab needs and at various fitness levels.

  5. Access to our full schedule of group classes
    There’s nothing like consistently feeling the work in your body to ramp up your learning curve!

  6. Each mentee will keep a journal during their mentorship. 
    This process will provide you with invaluable material for reflection both during and after your program.

  7. Second Sunday of the Month: Peer Study Group. 
    Join Corpo Kinetic teachers and community teachers to learn from each other! Each month we pick a different topic to discuss, share insights and observations, and learn from the collective.

  8. Fourth Sunday of the Month:  Round Robin Instructor Class! 
    This super-fun class by Pilates instructors and for Pilates instructors is open to Corpo Kinetic teachers, mentees, and teachers in the greater community.  Try out a new flow, practice teaching the exercises you avoid teaching (we all have them!), get feedback from experienced instructors, and leave class with new ideas, more knowledge, and more friends!

  9. Discounts on Corpo Kinetic workshops. 
    You’ll receive a discount code valid for up to a year after the start of your mentorship towards all Corpo Kinetic workshops.
