The Lisa B Pilates Academy for Teachers is a continuing educational programme for Pilates teachers of all levels and backgrounds. The Academy’s intention is to keep a deep-rooted focus on the fundamentals of traditional Pilates, whilst working in a supportive and encouraging environment to develop and evolve the method. All teachers are encouraged to explore, experiment, question and create so that they truly understand the purpose and potential of each exercise.
