What's Covered

Every apparatus. Every angle. Every client.

The apparatus certification gives you deep knowledge of three distinct pieces of equipment — each with its own logic, repertoire, and teaching approach. Together they form a complete, professional toolkit.

Students who complete the full apparatus track consistently report feeling significantly more confident and creative when working with diverse clients in a studio setting.

01
Trapeze Table / Cadillac

A thorough introduction to the Trapeze Table — from foundational spring work through post-rehab and advanced applications. Appropriate for those working with the Allegro Tower, Half Trapeze, and Wall Unit as well.

02
Pilates Chair

The Wunda Chair, EXO Chair, and Split-Pedal Chair — challenging, versatile, and ideal for functional strength and balance training at every level.

03
Barrels

Spine Corrector, Ladder Barrel, and Arc Barrel — essential tools for spinal articulation, flexibility, and exercises that complement and deepen the mat and reformer work.
