IMPORTANT: This information is only relevant for anyone who has completed the Studio Pilates Ball, Circle and Band Course prior to 2018.

Do I Qualify to Purchase the Updated Ball Circle and Band Course Materials?

If you have completed the Studio Pilates Ball, Circle and Band Course prior to 2018, you are able to purchase access to the new and revised course content.

Can I Purchase a Hard Copy of the New Ball Circle and Band Course Manual?

Yes! The new Ball Circle and Band Manual is pretty big (over 600 pages!). That's a lot to print out yourself, so if you would prefer a hard copy of the manual, simply select this option at the checkout. Please be aware the digital option when upgrading a course does not include the hard copy manual as this is not a course enrolment as stated on the online training centre, this is a course upgrade. The digital manual isn't able to be downloaded either, you will be able to access this when connected to the internet on a web browser. 

Can I resit the face to face component of the Ball Circle and Band Course in the new format? 

Yes! We have upgrade options for just accessing the new online content and upgrade options to resit the face to face course. The Ball Circle and Band Course is now a 1.5 day course. Resitting the face to face course is a fantastic way to not only learn the new exercises, but also to refresh your Ball Circle and Band knowledge and receive feedback on your instructing.

For Fitness Australia Registered Exercise Professionals (REPs): As the course is now longer in duration, we are in the process of applying for new CECs through Fitness Australia. If you would like the new CECs, you would need to resit the 1.5 day face to face course as a refresher.
