Strength and Conditioning Upskill for Pilates Instructors
3 Days In Person, Bali
Modern. Practical. Results Driven. Class Ready.
The Nuvra Strength and Conditioning Upskill is a 3-day in person course for certified Pilates instructors who want to confidently bring strength training into their Mat and Reformer classes. Strength work is now part of most modern Pilates classes, but it is rarely covered in certification courses. This course closes that gap.
You will go deeper into strength and conditioning principles, learn the compound movements used in gyms and strength classes, and discover how to program them intelligently within a Pilates setting. Every session is designed to be practical, so you can take what you learn straight back into your classes.
You will leave with new exercises, smarter programming, sharper cueing, and the confidence to teach strength based classes that get your clients genuinely better results.
What You Will Learn
• Strength and conditioning principles and how they apply to Pilates
• Smart programming for Mat and Reformer classes
• How to build strength and conditioning blocks using AMRAPs, EMOMs and other formats
• Compound movements including squats, deadlifts, bent over rows and presses
• How to safely add dumbbells and load to your classes
• How springs change strength work on the Reformer
• Cueing clinics covering new language, imagery cues and clear, confident delivery
How the Course Is Structured
Mornings: Mat
Each morning focuses on strength and conditioning theory and movement on the mat. You will break down the key exercises, learn how to load them, and practise programming and cueing them in a group class setting.
Afternoons: Reformer
Each afternoon you will take what you learned that morning onto the Reformer. You will explore how spring resistance changes strength work and how to program and cue it confidently on the machine.
Your Mini Manual
You will receive a mini manual of strength exercises to keep and use as a reference in your classes.
Who This Course Is For
This course is for instructors who already hold a Mat and/or Reformer Pilates certification. It is an upskill course, not an entry level certification.
The Nuvra Approach
This course is not about adding random exercises to your classes. It is about understanding why strength and conditioning works and how to apply it with intention, so your programming makes sense and your clients see real progress.
You will be supported, guided and challenged throughout, with an emphasis on smart programming, quality movement and confident teaching.
Leave as an instructor who is ready to program strength. Ready to cue it. Ready to teach it across Mat and Reformer.
