Inside Pilates Encyclopedia 3.0: How To Get Better at Cueing Pilates Exercises

May 12, 2026

One of the biggest challenges for new Pilates teachers is knowing what to say. You may understand an exercise yourself, but translating that understanding into clear, effective cueing is an entirely different skill. That’s exactly why Pilates Encyclopedia was designed to help teachers improve their cueing in two powerful ways.

 

Steal The Script

First, every exercise tutorial inside PE is written in a way that allows you to borrow the exact language we use. The tutorials are not vague notes or short bullet points — they are structured with real teaching language that you can immediately apply in sessions and classes. For newer teachers, this can be incredibly helpful because it removes the pressure of trying to invent cues on the spot. You can study the wording, practice it, and gradually develop your own teaching voice with more confidence.

Here's an example. Can you guess the exercise?

 

Learn The Skill

Second, PE goes far beyond scripted exercise tutorials by teaching cueing as its own skill. Inside the library, you’ll find dedicated lessons on verbal cueing, tactile cueing, cueing with props, self-tactile cueing, and imagery cueing. This is especially valuable for group classes and virtual sessions where hands-on corrections may not always be possible. We also include more than 50 imagery cues to help you communicate movement concepts in a way clients can actually feel and understand.

The goal is not just to give you lines to memorize. It’s to help you become a more observant, adaptable, and effective teacher who understands how to communicate movement clearly in any teaching environment.

At Pilates Encyclopedia, we are deeply passionate about helping Pilates teachers communicate more clearly, confidently, and effectively with their students. Great teaching is not just about knowing exercises — it’s about knowing how to guide people through movement in a way they can truly understand and feel. That’s the skill we want to help you develop inside PE. If you’re ready to make your teaching feel easier, more natural, and more impactful, we would love to have you inside the membership. I truly believe you’ll feel the difference in your teaching almost immediately — and I don’t think you’ll regret joining us.
