A quiet question

Meet Your Lead Mentor

Richenda has certified 100 instructors. She'll certify you too.

Richenda built Born Pilates because she watched too many instructors graduate from certificate factories with no idea how to actually hold a room. A piece of paper, no real hours, no follow up. She didn't just teach Pilates. She built studios from zero, finding the clients, nurturing them, figuring out what works. She knows exactly what a new instructor needs to survive in the real world. So she built a 175 hour mentorship program where you train on real clients, with real feedback every single week.

100 graduates later, every single one is still in her phone. That's the difference. Once you're Born, you're family.
