Join Chelsea Streifeneder and Toby Usnik for the world’s first NPCP-accredited course integrating artificial intelligence into Pilates education and studio management—fully virtual, accessible from anywhere.
In just 90 minutes, this course equips Pilates students, instructors, and studio owners with practical strategies to:
Stabilize revenue and clarify pricing and packaging
Reduce administrative overload
Streamline communication
Strengthen client connection and community
All without compromising the integrity of the Pilates method—or your authentic voice.
Contrology Meets Technology
This course bridges classic Pilates principles with modern tools, showing how AI can support—not replace—thoughtful teaching, ethical business practices, and sustainable studio growth. Chelsea and Toby guide you through applying AI in ways that enhance your teaching, save time, and foster community, while keeping the heart of Pilates at the center.
Our mission: make AI literacy a core professional competency in the Pilates profession—alongside cueing, anatomy, and ethics. Whether you’re entering the field or running a studio, you deserve intelligent, values-aligned tools that support longevity, clarity, and growth.
