14 Types Of Pilates: Which Type Should You Teach?

In This Post, You’ll Discover 14 Types Of Pilates, And Which Ones You Might Like To Teach

The beauty of being a Pilates teacher is the enormous range of “exercise types” you can choose from. The 14 main types are Arc, Cadillac, Foam Roller, Jump Board, Magic Circle, Pilates Matwork, Mini Ball, Reformer, Resistance Band, Springboard, Swiss Ball, Wobble Cushion, Wunda Chair and TRX.

But that huge range of “14 types” can also be a curse.

Don’t Get Overwhelmed

Choose two or three “types” to master (e.g. Matwork, Foam Roller and Mini Ball), and dip into more “types” during the course of your Pilates teaching career. 

To be honest, I was so overwhelmed by the “14 types” of Pilates teaching that in 2010 I decided to create an online Pilates Lesson Planner, so I could create all 14 types of Pilates lesson plans quickly and easily.

We’ve been constantly adding new Pilates exercises to the online Pilates Lesson Planner over the past 10+ years within all 14 types. There are now thousands of Pilates exercises to choose from.
