Cross-Over (SPX) Workshops
STOTT PILATES Cross-over workshops offer educational opportunities for STOTT PILATES instructors to make the transition from private to group training and vice versa. Unlike standard workshops, cross-over workshops are designed to act as a bridge between the group program and the Intensive or Comprehensive programs.
For example, an individual who is certified in private training (IMP or IR) can enhance his or her skills as a group STOTT PILATES trainer by taking a workshop that focuses on group instruction such as the XMG workshop.
