A 2003 'Health Which' report voiced concern over unqualified Pilates teachers and the IOW Pilates Centre totally endorses those views.

The National Occupational Standards for Pilates in the UK exists to monitor and standardise Pilates instructors. Both Alison and Kim are fully-qualified teacher trainers with the BCPA, and are closely involved with instructing new pilates teachers to the highest standards. They also continue to update their knowledge by regularly attending courses at nationally and internationally recognised Pilates Studios. For more information click here.
