Become a Pilates instructor ·  Bondi Rise Teacher Training 2026

TRAIN WITH US. TEACH WITH PURPOSE.

THE TRAINING

Pilates training that goes beyond the exercises.

Bondi Rise Teacher Training has been created by Lottie Anderson – studio owner, lead instructor and founder of two beloved Pilates studios, a thriving community and a Pilates app loved by hundreds. This is a training born from genuine passion – shaped by years of teaching real clients, building a community, and learning what it truly takes to become an exceptional instructor.

We train you to read a room, understand bodies, adapt in the moment, and guide your clients on a journey – all while building a career you love. This is contemporary, mindful Pilates teaching, and it will change the way you move, think and lead.

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT

Built to create the next generation of teachers.

01 

Contemporary & mindful

Designed to equip you with everything you need to deliver safe, effective and inspiring Pilates classes, to both a group and 1:1 setting in a mindful way.

02

Physio-developed course

We have worked closely with a physiotherapist on our course. Before the in-person course starts there is an online anatomy module so you arrive on day one equipped with how the body works. Our physiotherapist will also be attending the course so you can develop a deeper understanding of anatomy. 

03

The art of cueing and creating a flow

Confidently create mindful classes, blending breathwork and flow for a transformative experience that leaves clients with a lasting sense of achievement

04

A full business module

A successful Pilates Teacher isn’t just about teaching, it’s also about how to build a career. You will learn how to build your brand, grow clients, how to utilise social media, and master other important business skills. We think this is an essential module.

WHY BONDI RISE

“When I started teaching, I wished someone had told me that knowing the exercises is just the starting point. The real magic happens when you learn to connect movement with intention – to guide someone not just through a class, but through an experience that changes how they feel in their body and their mind. I didn’t just want to create a qualification. I wanted to create teachers who leave people feeling better than when they walked in. That’s what this training is built for. I am so excited to share Bondi Rise teacher training with you”
