Why Aerial Pilates Teacher Training is the Perfect Next Step for Pilates Teachers

Why Aerial Pilates is the Perfect Next Step for Pilates Teachers

As a Pilates teacher, you may be wondering how to expand your skills, inspire clients, or stand out in the fitness or Pilates world?

The answer could be Aerial Pilates teacher training.

This innovative practice blends Pilates principles with the Aerial hammock — creating unique movement opportunities, spinal decompression, and all whilst still working from your centre.

The benefits of Aerial Pilates extend to both teachers and clients, making it the perfect next step for your professional journey! 

Here's 5 benefits you could gain from starting! 

1. Expand Your Skill Set as a Teacher

Aerial Pilates introduces new ways to apply Pilates principles. The hammock allows for greater exploration of stability, mobility, and control (exactly when to hold on and when to let go) — making your classes richer and more versatile. With structured training, you’ll feel confident guiding students safely in and out of the hammock while layering Pilates cues they already know and love.

2. Attract & Retain More Clients

Studios that offer Aerial Pilates often see a surge of interest from both Pilates lovers and those new to movement. The novelty of the hammock sparks curiosity, while the Pilates foundation keeps the practice grounded in safe, functional movement. For teachers, this means fuller classes, more workshop opportunities, and increased income potential.

3. Enhance Client Benefits

The hammock is more than a prop — it’s a game-changer for:

- Spinal decompression 
- Joint support while still building strength
- Deep centre work whilst also working with balance challenges
- Playfulness and confidence in movement

These benefits help clients move freely and potentially recover faster - We're more likely to train often if we enjoy it and feel good whilst doing it! — keeping them coming back for more.

4. Professional Development & Career Growth

Our Aerial Pilates Teacher Training offers you a professionally recognised endorsement and includes certification.  The chance to connect with a global teaching community. For Pilates and Aerial instructors, it’s an exciting way to invest in CPD (continuing professional development) while standing out in your market.

5. Future-Proof Your Studio

Adding Aerial Pilates to your offerings keeps your teaching portfolio fresh and relevant. Whether you teach in your own studio or as part of a larger team, being trained in Aerial Pilates positions you highly in innovative fitness!
