Membership Fees

PMA Individual Membership & PMA Certified Pilates Teacher Membership  

An Individual Member is anyone who is interested in:

• Supporting the PMA's efforts to establish the teaching of Pilates as a profession
• Enhancing their study and practice of Pilates
• Keeping abreast of developments and trends in the Pilates world
• Receiving information on the PMA's activities and events
• Receiving the membership benefits outlined below

*PMA Certified Pilates Teacher Members enjoy the same benefits as an Individual Member but have passed the PMA Pilates Certification Exam and maintain their certification through earning Continuing Education Credits.  Passing the PMA Pilates Certification Exam does not grant automatic membership in the PMA. The PMA is a Professional Association and Certifying Agency, two separate functions under the same organization.
