Become a 400-hour certified Pilates Instructor with a scholarship to New York Pilates Instructor Training Program. The Scholarship program was created to be completed in 32 weeks (7.5 months). We take on a cohort of 5 students twice a year with partial and full scholarships available. The program covers comprehensive Reformer Group training emphasizing contemporary Pilates and anatomy. New York Pilates Instructor Training Program is a $5200 value for 500 hour pilates certification.

If your application is submitted after the deadline you can be considered for our next cohort. The scholarship is an unpaid educational opportunity designed to support those passionate about advancing their Pilates education; while it is not a paid work-study program or job offer, trainees may separately apply for Studio Sales Representative roles at NYP to gain industry experience and earn income while studying, providing hands-on exposure to NYP’s studio operations and brand culture and creating a seamless transition from student to certified instructor.
