Teaching Philosophy

To do something well, shortcuts won’t work.  All Core Zone instructors have brought this teaching philosophy to their training and they bring it to each of their clients.  As Joseph Pilates said, “Patience and persistence are vital qualities in the ultimate successful accomplishment of any worthwhile endeavor.”

In order to provide our clients with both the safety and results they deserve, all our teachers have completed the most extensive and rigorous training programs available.  These programs require a minimum of 600 apprenticeship hours, classroom training and in-depth testing.  Most teachers have then gone on to complete additional certifications and all are thoroughly trained in injury modification.

Core Zone teachers hold certifications in Authentic and Classical Pilates from the New York Pilates Studio®, the program that carries on the unbroken legacy of Joseph Pilates. While there are many teachers who call themselves “Pilates Instructors,” very few have completed these programs.
