Reformer Pilates brand Fold and Create PT have announced the launch of Fold Academy, a new partnership for Pilates education.

The partnership launches with an accredited reformer Pilates course delivered in a blended format, combining e-learning with four in-person workshop days and an in-person assessment day.

The programme runs over a 12-week period and provides a complete, certified training pathway, from foundational mat Pilates through to advanced reformer Pilates, recognised at Level 3.

The first course will launch in London in Q1, 2026, with other UK cities to follow.

“We see an opportunity to build a certification programme that carries weight in the industry,” says Matt Harras, co-founder of Fold.

Adam Rhodes, founder of Create, adds that the new academy “allows people to qualify to industry-recognised standards, with the support and tools they need to build a career”.
