The following Levels are progressive training stages within the full AHA Pilates Comprehensive Teacher Training Programme. They are not standalone programmes or certifications and payment by stage does not constitute separate enrolment in each Level.

IMPORTANT PAYMENT TERMS: Both payment options relate to enrolment in the full AHA Pilates Comprehensive Teacher Training Programme. They are payment schedules for the full programme and do not constitute separate enrolments in Levels 1, 2 and 3. The payment option determines how and when the programme fee is paid; it does not change the participant’s commitment to the full programme. Completing a level, discontinuing attendance or choosing not to attend a subsequent Level does not by itself cancel any contractual payment obligation, which remains subject to the applicable Enrolment Agreement, Student Guide and Consumer Law.
