There are many ways forward to become a Pilates instructor. But there are very few ways back to the real work of Joseph Pilates. The real value of your training is the expertise you glean and your ability to work with any type of human. The RPTT confers another distinct benefit: lineage. This is what you earn by training in the original method. Joe taught Romana. Romana taught Alycea. Now Alycea will teach you. You will then take your place as an ambassador for the work of Joseph Pilates.u003cbru003eu003cbru003eIf the cost seems higher than others programs it’s because we show you the total costs up front whereas many programs only reveal the tuition and mask the many other required costs. We believe there shouldn’t be any surprises. If the cost seems lower it’s likely because we have enough Host studios and enough volume to scale our expenses and pass the savings on to you. Remember that is really two programs in one. We believe that you should only have to go through your primary Pilates education once. Too often, instructors graduate their programs and immediately begin again somewhere new spending enormous time and money re-educating themselves. Our motto is u0022do it once and do it rightu0022. It is far less expensive to enroll in a complete comprehensive education than to  begin all over again in new training programs.
