What Graduates Are Saying:

"I recently completed my Pilates Instructor Course at Image Fitness. I cannot recommend Pilar enough as a Pilates teacher and mentor. From the very first class, she created a space where I felt supported and encouraged, even when my confidence was at its lowest. Pilar believed in me, even when I didn’t believe in myself, and that belief pushed me to step out of my comfort zone and grow in ways I never thought possible.
Thanks to her guidance, I’ve gone on to set up my own Pilates business, which is now fully booked with a waiting list! Pilar’s passion, patience, and ability to inspire have been a driving force behind my success, and I’ll always be grateful for the impact she’s had on my journey."

- Nikki Hanlon

"It was a great course that set me up with all the tools I needed to start teaching straight away. Our instructor Tomás was brilliant and helped us all through the course. Himself and Adam were always at the end of the phone if we had any questions. I would recommend this course to anyone thinking of becoming a Pilates instructor."

- Leah Barry

"I completed my Pilates course with Pilar in Image Fitness Training Swords in December 2024. I loved every minute of it. Pilar is an incredible teacher and instructor. I learned so much from her and have now gone on to teacher 4 classes a week successfully myself. Highly recommend Pilar & Image Fitness Training😁🙌🫶"

- Ciara McGurren

"I did my Pilates instructor course with the lovely Pilar last year and loved every minute. Not only did I look forward to the course each Saturday, Pilar created an environment where everyone felt at ease to get up and practise teaching from the get go. She naturally brought us out of our comfort zone and made it fun at the same time. Questions were always encouraged and the whole experience was so enjoyable. I’m so glad I did it! Delighted now to be a successful instructor with my own weekly classes. I’ve been teaching Pilates since the week after finishing the course and really enjoy it!"
