Student Retention Podcast – How to Attract and Keep Committed Students

The Advanced Work: A 4-week Immersion for Teachers & Students.

Push your edges, develop your skills, go further than you thought you could go. Join Chantill Lopez, founder of Skillful Teaching, for in-depth exploration of the advanced Pilates work.

For teachers:

The advanced work is an opportunity to address the most common challenge teachers currently face that keeps them struggling to generate the revenue and stability they desire: A diminishing student-base and a lack of committed clientele.

The advanced Pilates exercises are powerful both in the strength they build and in the motivation they cultivate in our students. When you are able to teach the advanced repertoire consistently it’s like building a bridge from just being functional and getting out of pain and showing students that they have more potential then they thought.

Teaching the advanced work creates excitement, motivation, determination, and is FUN!

The 4-week immersion is also an incredibly UNIQUE and POWERFUL format for learning, creative and in-depth discussion, and immediate integration. Working with and applying the material to real students each week gives teachers an opportunity to test the waters, get direct feedback from the students and workshop leader, and to ask questions and get answers while they are learning. This as opposed to the standard workshop format where you are left to work everything out on your own with marginal success and minimal retention.

As a teacher here’s what you will learn over the course of 4 weeks:

• Learn how to determine which students are ready to venture into the advanced Pilates work using a clear and concise Skill Assessment Tracking method;
• Learn how to move your students toward mastery of the advanced work from day 1;
• Discover how to integrate FLOW, RHYTHM, PRECISION in to EVERY SESSION no matter what the students’ level;
• Learn classical, contemporary, FUN and challenging TRANSITIONS to keep your students focused, in the flow, and moving with intention so they get the most out of every session;
• And learn how leverage your skills and knowledge to attract and keep clients who are fully invested and want to STAY for the LONG RUN!

For students:

Participating in the immersion workshop is a chance to be an integral part of a teacher’s growth and success. As a student you will not only be challenged and pushed to expand your potential, achieve new success, but you will also be a pivotal part of the feedback loop, which will help propel your teacher to a new level of teaching.
As a student here’s what you will take away:
Greater strength, agility, power, and skill;
A deeper understanding of the full Pilates method;
A increased ability to focus and discern your edges, when to push and when to pull back;
Greater dedication and commitment to your personal practice.
