You will have 100 hours of face to face tutor time when you study for the MK Pilates Matwork Diploma, typically we work together at weekends over a period of 6 months. Expect your home study hours to be 125 hours minimum, including personal practice. Home assignments are completed at your own pace, in your own time, Patricia is on hand to help if you need it. After our face to face teaching time, we expect that you will take a further 3 months to fully complete the assignments and be confident to teach your exam class, but that can vary according to your commitments. Some students take longer, it depends on you and your own learning style. Group teaching practice is arranged ad hoc, whenever you or the tutor feel the time is right. You will have one year to complete and submit your course materials and videos for assessment.
On the course you will study the traditional classical movements as well as contemporary or ‘evolved’ styles and learn how to adapt and modify to ‘best fit’ the needs of both the individual client and group class participants. MK classes have a typical ‘flow’ which our clients love , making the class feel like a smooth transition from one exercise to the next.
The course price is £2550, inclusive of all teaching materials and manuals and assessments. Payable in 3 instalments by arrangement.
