I followed my passion with Pilates by registering for the certificate in Mat with Aligned For Life Pilates CBD in 2011. The reason is I wanted some Continuing Education Points, I had already completed my 3 day Fitness Pilates Certificate in 2008 and wanted to reregister as Fitness Instructor in Step, BodyBalance, Yoga Diploma and Pilates.

I successfully completed and qualified in Pilates Mat the Certificate 2013 following commitment and hard work. I followed that passion in Pilates and recently upgraded to a Diploma and I now am Qualified in the Diploma and teach at Aligned For Life CBD both mat and studio classes.

I realized soon enough that the mat and the Studio Pilates as taught here is the goddess of all Pilates in the market today and follows the Pilates Method and is very comprehensive and customer driven and focussed. I experienced the rehab side of the studio sessions first hand following a second stroke in 2012 during my course. and I have never looked back since then.

Have been attending studio sessions since 2012, amazing, professional and friendly staff working with my body needs , teaching me to simply walk properly again with full body awareness. My overall balance, co-ordination and physical/mental functionality have improved tremendously.

The studio has a teaching wing called National Pilates Training (NPT), all courses are held in the CBD. NPT is a government registered RTO. I completed my Certificate in Pilates and Diploma through NPT. The courses are very comprehensive, the instructors are very good and the Diploma and Advanced diploma are government accredited courses.

The courses allow one to become members with Pilates Alliance Australasia an independent, unbiased and non-profit regulatory organisation for the control of quality and integrity within all approaches of the Pilates method. You will love the experience of taking studio or mat classes with Aligned For life or even learning the Pilates Method with NPT CBD.

From first hand experience, the Pilates Method as taught through Aligned For life encompasses today's "Clinical Pilates", and compared to "Fitness Pilates" is a very personal and a client focussed approach.

Instructors , if need be, work with Allied Health Professionals, to improve client outcomes. Instructors work with client specific goals, injuries and needs.

I highly recommend this place if you want to experience Pilates as Joseph Pilates intended.

I love it and recommend to anyone from rehab, general fitness to sporting performance.

The CBD Studio also runs continuing Education courses for qualified Diploma students.
