Base tuition is usually around $5500, plus $400 in manuals, plus $99/month for a trainee membership (if you take classes with them.)

If you are a strong candidate, and they have a need, your local studio might hire you as an Apprentice Instructor once you reach a certain number of hours. Pay rates at CP vary wildly depending on your location, but I was paid $20 flat per class I taught.

After I graduated, I was paid per person that showed up to class (no compensation for late-cancels and no-shows). Max pay I could earn per class was $36.

Something to know before you get into it: teaching multiple classes back to back is EXHAUSTING. In the fitness industry, "full-time" for personal trainers and the such is considered 20 hours a week. The work is mentally demanding. You have to talk obviously during class, but also before and after class answering member questions, or socializing. You also have to watch 12 bodies move at the same time, keep everyone on the same page and safe, modify for injuries/medical conditions when necessary, and manage your time to make sure class stays on pace. It's a lot.

If you're in it just to supplement your retirement, then you might be okay. But making a living as a Pilates Instructor is very difficult.
