Seller's description

Your written exam is a few weeks away and your manual is three hundred pages long. This guide turns the whole syllabus into eight weeks of reading and twenty questions a week, then gives you two full mock exams scored by domain, so you know where you stand before you book the date.

The Pilates Certification Study Guide covers what comprehensive programs examine: the history and principles, movement science, functional anatomy, the classical mat order, and the repertoire on the reformer, chair, Cadillac and barrels. 93 of the 95 exam cards carry a line drawing, so you can see the set-up you are being asked about. Every one of the 300 questions has a written explanation that says why the right answer is right and why the most tempting wrong answer is wrong. The plan has a gate built in: score 16 out of 20 on a week's questions and you move on; score lower and the guide tells you which pages to reread.
