Hands On Teaching

Karen Frischmann is a leading voice in classical Pilates education, known for her ability to help teachers deepen their understanding of the original Pilates method. With decades of experience, she has mentored hundreds of instructors worldwide, guiding them to refine their teaching, master the classical repertoire, and develop a keen eye for movement.

As the creator of Classical Progressions, a 15-month graduate program, Karen provides an immersive and structured approach to studying Pilates in its purest form. She also leads The Mastery Series, a monthly membership for teachers seeking ongoing mentorship and professional development. A sought-after presenter, she has been invited to share her expertise at international conferences and workshops, where she is known for her clarity, depth of knowledge, and engaging teaching style.

Karen’s approach is rooted in the belief that Pilates is an evolving practice—one that requires both discipline and creativity. While the method itself remains unchanged, she embraces modern technology and online learning to make classical education more accessible. Her work ensures that today’s Pilates professionals can carry forward the integrity of the method while leveraging contemporary tools to enhance their learning and teaching.
