Clay

Clay mat Pilates teacher training

A 25-hour program built for both aspiring and established teachers, training you in structured, music-driven mat Pilates. Take the Clay Method anywhere, or finish and audition to teach at Clay.

Limited November spots available

Structured sculpting, not chaotic burn.

The Clay Method is contemporary mat Pilates, built on classical principles and shaped for a modern, music-driven studio. Every class is programmed around form, time under tension, and progressive strength.

Brown textured yoga mat with "CLAY" logo, two beige foam grips, a cork yoga block, and two pairs of brown resistance bands on a light wooden floor.

Over 25 hours you'll learn to design and teach a full Clay Method class: foundational Pilates principles, the anatomy that matters for group instruction, the Clay exercise library, and how to build a 45-minute class through the control, build, and peak arc. A big part of the training is the teaching itself: cueing, musical timing, and leading a room with confidence.
