WHAT MAKES OUR PROGRAM UNIQUE

BOTH RECORDED SELF STUDY & IN STUDIO IMMERSION

Our trainees have the flexibility to learn the material how & when is best for them with our weekly recordings. Every Sunday, trainees will receive a recording of the weekly material being covered. Trainees can study & watch the recording multiple times at their pace before the weekend immersion. They have access to the studio to practice alone or with other trainees. The recorded material is also available to our trainees to go back & review until they test out & graduate.

During our in-studio immersion classes, our students are then able to dive deeper into hands-on, in-depth learning with our master teacher trainers. Because they already know the material, immersion hours are spent practicing, asking questions, as well as discussing special cases & modifications.

Sandra B.

“The past 4 months have been wonderful. I feel like I have learned so much and I feel so much more confident as an instructor. I appreciate all of the time & effort that you both put into helping the students. I just can’t say enough good things about the program!”

Angela E.

I wanted to thank you both for being great mentors and teachers. You both held our hands during this process more then I can say for other master trainers in other programs. You have helped me build my confidence in teaching Pilates, you have taught us the strong background of the foundation techniques and proper cueing during this process to be the best the rest is up to us. You both have been amazing!

Victoria H.

Thank you so much for all the knowledge and guidance that I’ve received these past months. I’m so grateful I got the opportunity to work with the both of you, including members of your staff. Your studio is awesome! I’ve learned more about my body and my strengths and weaknesses through this program than I have in the past 4 years seeing doctors and physical therapists!  I truly am excited to learn more and grow to become an instructor as highly qualified as you both are! You’ve instilled in me confidence and the tools to help others.

I wanted to thank you for the outstanding PSC Teacher Training program.  I enrolled in the program through Body Be Well Pilates in Red Hook, NY. First and foremost, Chelsea Streifeneder is a superb teacher-trainer.  She combines an expert knowledge of Pilates, the PSC program and of the body with an approachable and nurturing manner. She sets and holds high expectations for her students, but also provides the mentorship needed to help them become successful teachers. 

Having initially started my teacher training through Stott Pilates, I was reluctant to start over in a new program. It had always been my intention to become fully certified through Stott, though time and money never quite seemed to be in sync.  As time passed education became more and more elusive. 

I am so glad that I overcame my hesitation to re-start teacher training and couldn’t be happier with the PSC program.  Likewise, I am incredibly grateful to you for offering a bridge program, which alleviated the financial burden and made the decision to enroll much easier. It felt so good to have completed the comprehensive program. Not only do I have my Pilates “mojo” back, but now I am a much more confident and more creative trainer.
