A-Lyne offers full formations on mat, reformer, trap table, chair, barrel ands small accessories. These are done by module and can therefore be done consecutively as a full certification that takes about 16 months, Or, can be tailored to the individual trainee’s schedule. However, modules need to be done the the order listed. Each summer we offer an intensive stand-alone mat certification. This was developed to accommodate our trainees who live outside of France and can’t easily travel to France for each mat module. This intensive, however, does require that the trainee fulfil the required observation and teaching hours at our center, return for review courses and testing. 

At the end of the mat certification, trainees will turn in their completed, signed logbooks before undergoing a test that involves teaching, personal practice, and a written anatomy test. The trainee then presents a case study that they have worked on over the course of the certification process. Provided the trainee passes all of these tests, they will receive a diploma from A-Lyne. This diploma does not guarantee membership in either the FPMP (French Pilates Federation) or the PMA. For membership in the FPMP and the ability to participate in the CQP test out, the trainee’s A-Lyne mat diploma will allow the participant to initiate that process.
