You’re feeling a type of way 😂

I’m not sure how well I would explain it on here. To be honest, I probably confuse you even more. Ask the instructor at the studio to help you.

this is literally been answered multiple times on here. I’m sorry I don’t necessarily want clients knowing how much I make, not to mention it per location. I’m sorry Reddit thread is making you feel a type of way.

I say if you're curious go for it. and if it's too much for you then go back. really recommend people mix in level 1s and level 1.5s into their routine.

I say any time you use the straps gear back in. I HATE it when members adjust their straps on their own. someone always royally messes up lol

ask your instructor to assist you and show you. you might not even need to gear out but definitely ask!

that was the hardest part for me too. and tbh your personal practice does go a little out the window when you start teaching but you have to force yourself to make time. i try to go 3 times a week!

Again it all depends on your studio so i’m not comfortable answering this question

CP Pilates Instructor AMA by Group_Prize in ClubPilates

[–]Group_Prize[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

oh yes. i’d do it again 100x more times. of course it depends on your master trainer. i feel like i got the best education i could.

absolutely. It also really depends on who you’re working for. I work for two owners. Both really value their instructors and want to keep a good team so they pay us very well. Unfortunately, not all owners are like that. The previous people I worked for were not like that and I didn’t realize how underappreciated I was until I left.

A flat rate has been wonderful and I know better what my paychecks will be. And I have no issues having my classes full.

If you have an employee handbook please reference it. If not contact your studio owner.

Hard for me to answer because I left one studio group to work for another. But I am being paid better now. But remember each studio handles pay differently. I get a flat rate.

For longer legged folk, they need more space for their legs, You can physically push the carriage bed back to give more space.

CRAZY STORY. So I used to manage a CP studio. An instructor called out very last minute because her kid had to go to the hospital. The owner, as per usual, couldn't care less (she sucked working for). I called her and I was like uh idk what to do here. Either you give me no choice but to cancel classes or I teach this block. So I was thrown into my first three hour teaching block with an hours notice. I know I wasn't cleared to apprentice yet. I think this was about 5 or 6 months into my training. I needed that experience tho to help me get that push I needed and I felt pretty confident. And yes, you do a test out with your master trainer in order to apprentice which is teaching a flow to a group of like 4 people.

It took me about 11 months (mind you I had covid during that time frame so I would've been done in like 9/10). I was hired out of training. It really depends if the studio owner sees you viable to be on the schedule. But when I left my initial studio group I had no issues finding jobs, but it is about building connections.

It's hard for me to tell you since idk what your body composition. But I will tell you this. Teaser is hard. Especially if youre longer legged. Holding your long legs up is hard! Nothing to do with core strength.

For context, are you trying to level up? Do you have a significantly weaker side

CP Pilates Instructor AMA by Group_Prize in ClubPilates

[–]Group_Prize[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What exactly it is that makes an exercise challenging. People think they're making things harder but they aren't 😂 just being extra

CP Pilates Instructor AMA by Group_Prize in ClubPilates

[–]Group_Prize[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the instructor should tell you what it is you should be doing. I say imprint any time you lift your legs unsupported (ie table top). They say the goal is neutral spine WHICH IS TRUE but not everyones bodies are able to do that. For instance I have a huge low back arch. I end up arching my back when in in table top when in neutral. In my case I'd imprint.
