In this episode, I interview Mari Bartram, a comprehensively certified classical Pilates teacher, about her Pilates teacher training experience. Mari shares the extensive process she went through to become certified, including observing classes, taking classes, watching videos, and completing test outs. We discuss the benefits of Pilates for everyone, not just dancers, including improved core control, strength, posture, and balance. Mari emphasizes the importance of continuing to learn and grow as a Pilates teacher and the supportive and welcoming environment at Opal Wellness Studio. We encourage listeners to try Pilates and consider becoming a Pilates teacher!
