Final Testing consists of a Teaching Evaluation and Practical Exam. These components offer an inside look into the student’s practical and teaching skills.

Mat Students

• The Teaching Evaluation for Mat students consists of teaching four (4) exercises, at random, from the Mat repertoire to another mat student or to a small group.
• The Practical Exam for Mat students consists of a demonstration of four (4) Mat movements. These movements will represent repertoire taught in Modules 1 – 6.

Comprehensive Students 

• The Teaching Evaluation for Comprehensive students consists of a one-hour session for the student to structure an appropriate session for an assigned client. Clients will be of an intermediate level with minimum to no physical restrictions and provided by the studio hosting Final Testing. The structure of the session is at the discretion of the student, but must be limited to the repertoire taught within the modules of the course.
• The Practical Exam for Comprehensive students consists of a demonstration of four (4) separate Pilates movements. One of the movements will be from the Mat repertoire while the other three movements will utilize various Pilates apparatus. All movements are arbitrarily chosen and assigned from Modules 1 – 12. THIS INCLUDES REPERTOIRE TAUGHT ON THE AVALON/F2 APPARATUS

Additional time is provided following the exam to obtain feedback, which can be done either privately or within a group. Final grades are posted in the student’s account no later than 30 days following the exam.

Both exams are graded according to criteria as outlined in the student download section on a pass or non-pass basis.
