Grad School Testimonials

I've been a big fan of John and his website since I started teaching STOTT Pilates in 2016. As an inexperienced instructor, I looked to John for guidance on how to cue and program a class. I knew if I used your notes for a class, I couldn't go wrong. Because of you, I have become more confident in my teaching style and bring my A-game when I teach. As a seasoned instructor, I now come to your website for fresh ideas, new cues to share with my clients, and to get in a workout for myself. Thank you so much for being a leader in online classes, sharing your workout notes with your fans (This is HUGE!), and always bringing new material to your website. Thank you for adding to your staff. I love Sheri's workouts! I hope to meet John at a workshop, course, or symposium someday to thank him personally for making me the teacher I am today. Thank you and keep up the good work!
