Aline Conditioning

The Aline Conditioning Technique® Certification Program

When I set out to learn Pilates I went straight to the source, embarking on a two year apprenticeship with my own Pilates teacher. I call that "the old-fashioned way" and it's also the best. I received by certification in 1989 and have been teaching others ever since. The success of my first studio and subsequent rise in popularity of Pilates in general increased the need for teachers and I was committed to creating a Pilates certification program that turned out capable teachers with only the highest of standards.

My Aline Conditioning Technique Certification Program has earned a reputation for producing teachers of the highest quality. My graduate instructors are far more capable than just studio employees. They often go on to either open their own studio or enjoy incredible, wide-spread success teaching sold out classes all over the United States.

As a program director who still works hands on with my clients, I'm always expanding my knowledge base and continuing to further my own education. Every Pilates teacher training module is a personal growth challenge for me. The modules evolve as I do, transforming as I learn and as the needs of my teachers demand bigger, better, and more refined ideas in order to help them achieve their specific goals.

The Aline Conditioning Technique Certification distinguishes itself from other programs by focusing on the teacher's physical participation in the work. By physically participating in the instruction students can comprehend Pilates on a sensory level, allowing them to develop the ability to cue exercises from experience – almost via sense and muscle memory. This connection is so important now more than ever because the core tenets of Pilates are being lost in the haze of mass Pilates certification. During manyPilate teacher certification courses the emphasis is being placed on choreography without regard to execution, and the concepts are being learned intellectually without being actually applied to the individual exercises.

Another distinguishing feature of our Pilates certification program is the emphasis on developing variations on each Pilates exercise while staying loyal to the original concepts. By teaching this method, students learn how to craft a program that accommodates all body types and fitness levels while still maintaining a complete commitment to and staying respectful of the very essence of Pilates.

As Pilates training becomes available to the masses, it is imperative that the work be taught by its foundational concepts, then modified to accommodate different ages, health issues, and body types on an individual basis.

The most prized part of the program is the teacher's ability to immerse themselves in the work. As student teacher, you will get in the best shape of your leave. Aline trainers know that you need to spend class time on yourself, developing your core as a teacher, and that's what our curriculum provides.

Most of our graduates being working immediately upon receiving their certification. Most have jobs waiting for them before they even complete the program. Some of the best Orange County yoga and Pilates studios are just waiting for Aline trainers to graduate, eagerly anticipating the opportunity to sweep them up into coveted positions and full-time schedules.

Hopefully this helps you in your search for certification. If you have any further questions or are interest in beginning your Pilates training at our reputable Newport Beach yoga and Pilates studio, please call 714-316-8193.
