We Believe Reformer Fitness  Should Feel as Powerful as It Looks.

our certifications are perfect for you if:

✓ You’re done with surface-level certifications — you want a method, not a manual. Something that blends precision, strength, and creativity without losing the heart of the practice.

✓ You’re craving a structure that makes sense — intelligent programming, layered progressions, and cueing that lands every time.

✓ You’ve taught (or trained) before, but you know there’s another level — you’re ready to lead with clarity, confidence, and presence, not just follow choreography.

✓ You want to understand how to program, not just perform — to design classes that feel seamless, powerful, and elevated.

✓ You’re not here to collect hours — you’re here to become the kind of instructor people remember.

✓ You want to learn in a space that’s modern, inclusive, and inspiring — where education meets innovation, and support doesn’t stop when the course ends.

The Elevate Method

Built on progressions, not perfection, the Elevate Method teaches instructors how to meet their clients where they are—and lead them forward with confidence.


Our proprietary Strength-Based Reformer Fitness Method™ is more than just choreography. It’s a cueing-forward, result-driven approach to movement that prioritizes clarity, safety, and structure. With a 3-tier system and multi-modal teaching (verbal, visual, tactile), you’ll learn how to lead dynamic classes with skill—and your signature style.

“The Advanced ERA Program completely transformed the way I teach, move, and connect through movement. The Elevate Method™ isn’t just something I practice — it’s something I live. I’m so proud to represent this community and forever grateful for the strength, clarity, and inspiration it’s given me.”

"As a studio owner, I’m super excited to bring Elevate to my community — being able to show my clients this new method I’ve learned, my new teaching style, and also elevate my instructors’ skills as well"

“Elevate Reformer Academy completely redefined the way I teach and move. It’s Reformer fitness reimagined — using the machine as a true strength-training tool with purpose, flow, and precision. The experience pushed me out of my comfort zone, refined my cueing, and gave me the confidence to teach with clarity and control.”

“My experience with Elevate Reformer Academy was truly next level. The Advanced Certification pushed me out of my comfort zone and completely transformed how I teach and program. It was the perfect blend of education, empowerment, and community — a weekend that felt both inspiring and energizing. I left with sharper skills, stronger confidence, and a deeper understanding of how to build powerful, strength-based Reformer classes. I’m so proud to represent The Elevate Method™ and bring it home to Calgary.”
