SUPPORT DURING AND AFTER YOUR TRAINING
From the moment you enrol, you’ll be supported by the Kore+ Pilates Training team. You’ll receive comprehensive training manuals, unlimited studio access for practice, and mentorship from experienced instructors throughout your course.
Assessment is designed to build confidence rather than pressure, combining quizzes, practical teaching evaluations and a final class presentation supported by personalised feedback. The aim is to ensure you feel confident, capable and ready to teach when you qualify.
After completing your training, you’ll join the Kore+ Teacher Network, gaining access to continued education, community classes and ongoing career guidance. There may also be opportunities to join the Kore+ teaching team, offering a clear pathway from training into employment.
