Why Become A Pilates Instructor?
Our 20+ years of experience, our globally recognised brand, and our reputation for training formidable Suna staff led us to develop Pilates Instructor Training Courses for those who want to run their own Pilates classes, join an existing studio or incorporate pilates knowledge into their field of work.
We have trained chiropractors, physiotherapists, personal trainers, yoga instructors, self-employed mums, doctors, and Pilates clients - our graduates come from many walks of life. There are no restrictions on who can take our Pilates Instructor courses and you don’t need any experience as we train you on everything you need to know.
With Pilates, experience and skill are most important to guarantee that you can deliver classes to a level that safely challenges people of all abilities and fitness levels. Our Pilates Instructor Training courses were created by former Suna owner and Master Trainer Susie Cleland, who trained through Stott Pilates more than 20 years ago and subsequently completed many international training courses. Susie devised what we believe are some of the most extensive Pilates Instructor Training courses in the world. We are proud that all our Suna Pilates Trainer are graduates of these courses.
Almost all our courses can be completed either in the studio or via online training! Plus, you can book two or more courses to SAVE. View upcoming training course dates.

Expect more from a Suna Pilates Instructor Training Course
Our courses are not theory-heavy Pilates courses with lots of book work as devised by Joseph 100 years ago! Our Pilates classes are different; so our courses are too:
We have added interval training to strengthen the heart and for better cardio so with every exercise we "power up" at the end of each set.
Posture is key so we teach you to verbalise the movement, educate where your clients should feel it, and learn hands-on adjustments.
Our courses are taught by our Master Trainers who currently train our Suna Staff. They are highly experienced Instructor Trainers who work every week with clients, taking group classes and individual clients (not instructors who just teach courses and are removed from classes and clients). We believe it is hands on, every day experience that keeps you up to speed on clients' needs and wants, so with over 30 hours training per week, our trainers are right up to date.
Our courses are very practical with lots of time to put theory into practice.
We focus on ensuring you leave our course able to deliver a class that challenges people of all abilities, ages and fitness levels... safely.
So, there is a lot of learning, but a lot of practice as well. We believe there’s no point in studying theory if you can’t use and demonstrate it afterwards.
