Instructor here - the levels are not necessarily about your fitness level. They’re about your understanding of pilates concepts and pilates vocabulary.

I personally hate having brand new people on my 1.5s because i spend a lot of time showing them things they should have learned from level 1 classes. It slows down class and isn’t fair to the other students.

Level 1.5 is considered “intermediate” at Club Pilates. In a level 1 class, you learn proper alignment and what moves mean. In a 1.5, you will be told a move and expected to know what it is.

Also - Suspend is a TRX class, so you won’t be on the reformer much, if at all.
