MERRITHEW® GUEST TRAINING CENTER

Teacher Training

From Practitioner
to Instructor

Chan Cheng® is a Merrithew® Guest Training Center — complete your STOTT PILATES® international teacher certification right here, no travel required.

Program Content

Four officially certified Merrithew® courses — from anatomy fundamentals to a complete teaching path across mat and reformer.

AEF · Anatomy & Exercise Fundamentals

Anatomy & Exercise Fundamentals

A 30-hour anatomy and exercise science course for movement professionals. It goes beyond memorizing structures, teaching you to apply anatomy, biomechanics, and training principles to truly "read" movement — the ideal foundation before Mat or Reformer training.

  • Functional anatomy, planes of motion, and movement types
  • Turning anatomical knowledge into observation and correction skills
  • Available via live online or in-person instruction

IMP II · Intensive Mat-Plus

Intensive Mat-Plus · 2nd Edition

The core certification for teaching STOTT PILATES® mat work, covering 63 beginner/intermediate exercises and their variations across roughly 95 total hours (including 40 hours of in-person instruction and supervised teaching).

  • Postural assessment theory and practice, cueing and correction
  • Use of small props — resistance bands, Fitness Circle, and Arc Barrel
  • Programming and progressions for both group and private sessions
  • Includes required hours of observation, self-practice, and teaching practicum

IR II · Intensive Reformer

Intensive Reformer · 2nd Edition

The Reformer teaching certification — a systematic study of the beginner/intermediate Reformer repertoire across roughly 50 in-person hours, mastering spring-resistance programming, spotting, and safety protocols.

  • The complete beginner/intermediate Reformer repertoire
  • Spring setup and progression/regression strategies
  • Course design for both private and group settings
  • Includes required hours of observation, self-practice, and teaching practicum

CMR · Comprehensive Matwork & Reformer

Comprehensive Matwork & Reformer

A "start from zero" comprehensive certification path for those with no teaching experience. It integrates mat, reformer, and anatomy training into one complete program — paced more gradually, with a deeper foundation, typically completed over several months.

  • All beginner/intermediate Mat + Reformer content
  • Anatomy instruction built in — no prerequisite required
  • A longer, more thorough period of supervised practice and practicum
  • Ideal for career-changers and full-time students
