The APPI Matwork Certification Process
The APPI curriculum has developed over the years to become one of the most comprehensive
curriculum for any Pilates training organisation in the world.
Outline below is the full Matwork Certification process. This process must be completed within two years
in order to gain Certification with the APPI.
1. Theory exam
All students must pass a one hour multiple choice written exam based on the theory content of the
Matwork level one and three courses.
2. Practical exam
All students must pass a 30 minute practical exam based on the Matwork series of movements.
The practical exam tests knowledge of the movement themselves, movement selection and program
design, modification, contra-indications and movement facilitation. Overall ability to teach and
facilitate efficient movement and posture will be assessed. Explanations of clinical application will be
asked. Participants are also expected to be able to demonstrate all movements from the repertoire
learnt over the three courses.
