Teacher Education – Certificate Programs
All DMPTEP Certificate Programs require completion of our unique Theory Modules, taught by Dianne Miller. These must be attended in sequence, beginning with Theory Module 1.
| Level 1 – Pilates Mat and Universal Reformer | requires Theory Modules 1-6 |
| Level 2 – All Pilates Apparatus | requires Theory Modules 7-10 |
Comprehensive Teaching Certificates include an internship for those who are training to be Pilates teachers. Applications for internship at the Vancouver Pilates Centre may be submitted following acceptance into Theory Module 3. Internships are subject to availability and are not guaranteed.
Continuing Education Certificates do not include an internship, and are offered for Pilates teachers who meet the prerequisites.
Theory modules are also open to advanced students of the Pilates method who meet the prerequisites for Continuing Education purposes.
Please contact us if you would like to be notified of the Theory Module schedule.
Please note: Acceptance into theory modules 3 to 6 is dependent on aptitude and performance evaluations following theory modules 1 and 2.
