Teach from Serō
I'm so glad you are interested in teaching at Serō Pilates.
I built the studio to be everything I wanted as a Pilates teacher, but the status quo of Pilates grind culture didn't seem to allow for. I want to change things and make the industry better for all of us, and I believe that means saying goodbye to working for studios that place profit over people and going it alone.
The studio space is available for fully comprehensively certified teachers to teach in person privates and semi-privates up to 5 people. For private sessions, studio use rates start at $25 per hour after the 90 day trial period they increase to $35. For small group classes, they are $45 a class. It’s a great way to build up your portfolio as an independent instructor.
In order to use the space, you need to establish yourself as a sole proprietor or LLC, have your own liability insurance, and liability waivers in place for your clients to sign. In addition you need a Sunnyvale business license. Don’t worry about the business license until you decide to commit to using the studio. That’s the last step.
You bring in your own clients and you set your own hours during the available times. You process your own payments and handle your own scheduling. I want you to grow your small business, and I am happy to help as much as I can. I will refer students to you. I'm happy to brainstorm with you about how to increase bookings. I'm happy to talk about teaching and small business ownership. We are a community, we are not each other's competition!
I provide the equipment and props, as well as cleaning equipment for you to use - wipes for the apparatus, a vacuum for you to use at the end of your teaching block, etc. You will be listed under the affiliated instructors page on the studio website with your contact information and the link to your booking platform if applicable.
If you have been curious about what it’s like to work for yourself, but haven’t been sure where to start or unsure if you want to commit to a lease and the cost of buying equipment, teaching from Serō is a great option to explore.
