What Is Personal Training?

Personal training refers to physical and mental fitness training provided as part of personalized, one-on-one guidance by a certified trainer. It is far more than just supervised exercise—it is a highly personalized service in which a qualified trainer guides an individual (or a couple) to achieve their specific health and fitness goals.

Unlike group training or anonymous supervision at a gym, you receive a training plan and program that are fully tailored to your needs. Your trainer creates personalized training plans, monitors your form, corrects mistakes, and continuously adapts the training to your progress. This form of guidance differs fundamentally from training at a traditional gym, where supervision is usually general and not personalized.

Many of our personal trainers at Pilatesbee have a medical background in fields such as physical therapy or osteopathy, which allows them to connect you with a broader network of experts when needed. This holistic approach makes it possible to optimally coordinate your training, nutrition, and lifestyle and to develop solutions tailored specifically to your body.

Key Features of Personal Training:

Personalized Goals: The training plan is tailored to your personal goals, such as weight loss, muscle building, or rehabilitation support

Why Choose Personal Training at Pilatesbee

Pilates works best when you understand what you’re doing and why. With personal training, you have your trainer’s undivided attention. They work with you one-on-one, gently correct your form, explain each movement, and pay attention to every detail.

You’ll learn to be more aware of your body, to activate specific muscles, and to move from your core. This changes not only how you exercise, but also how you move in your everyday life. As a result, you’ll feel more upright, more flexible, more powerful, and simply better in your body.

Who is personal training suitable for?

Personal training is actually suitable for anyone who wants individualized and personalized guidance for an optimal Pilates workout. However, it’s especially beneficial if you:

If you have any symptoms or pre-existing conditions

If, for example, you’ve had back pain, joint problems, scoliosis, or an injury, one-on-one training is the safest and most effective way to get back into shape. During personal training sessions, your trainer can tailor each exercise to your individual needs—for example, in terms of intensity, range of motion, and pace.

Want to get back on track after surgery or an injury

Pilates was originally developed as a rehabilitation method. The equipment allows for controlled, gentle movements and targeted muscle building. Especially on the Reformer, Chair, or Cadillac, you can train safely under the guidance of a personal trainer without overexerting yourself.

You’re just starting out with Pilates

If you want to learn the Pilates method from the ground up, personal training is the best way to start. You’ll learn the principles correctly, starting from the basics. These include breathing, control, precision, and centering. And you’ll be able to apply them confidently in group classes later on.

You’re athletic and want to improve in specific areas

Pilates improves strength, flexibility, balance, and coordination. With personal training, we can tailor your program to your specific fitness goals. This is perfect for runners, golfers, tennis players, or dancers.

You simply want to develop more body awareness

If you want to delve deeper into Pilates technique or focus specifically on your posture, movement patterns, or body awareness, one-on-one training with your personal trainer is the perfect choice.

Equipment Used in Personal Training

At our studios, you’ll work out on high-quality Body Balance equipment—professional, precise, and comfortable to use.

What does a personal training session look like?

Every personal training session is tailored to the individual, but the structure remains similar:

1️. Getting to Know Each Other and Analysis
We start with a conversation about you, your body, and your goals. We’ll assess your posture, flexibility, and any physical issues you may have, and use that information to plan your workout.

2️. Personalized Training
Then we get started, usually on the Reformer or Cadillac. Your trainer will explain each exercise, correct your form, and monitor your breathing. You’ll work out calmly, with concentration, and with a full focus on quality.

3. Precision and Awareness
Pilates isn’t a quick workout. It’s about performing movements in a focused and precise manner. You’ll learn to build tension, release it, and control your body more consciously.

4. Flow and Progress
With every class, your workout becomes more fluid. You’ll feel how movement, strength, and breathing come together.

5. Follow-up Discussion
At the end of each Pilates personal training session, there is time for feedback: How do you feel? What has changed? What can you practice at home?

Why Personal Training at Pilatesbee Is So Special

The biggest difference lies in our team. At Pilatesbee, you’ll work with instructors who are internationally certified—for example, by Polestar Pilates, BASI Pilates, or Balanced Body. These training programs are among the most rigorous in the Pilates world and involve in-depth knowledge of anatomy, movement, and rehabilitation.

Our Pilates personal trainers bring not only studio experience but often expertise in osteopathy as well. Pilatesbee employs osteopaths and movement experts who have a thorough understanding of the human body.

That means when you train with us, you’ll be working with people who truly understand how the body works and what it needs when it’s restricted or overloaded. They know how to restore movement, reduce pain, and safely activate muscles.

Our trainers aren’t just fitness coaches. They’re true professionals with in-depth knowledge and years of experience. They immediately notice when you’re compensating and adjust each exercise accordingly. They tailor their approach to your individual needs. It doesn’t matter if you’re coming back from an injury, have a physical limitation, or have a very specific goal.

This high quality is why so many of our clients have remained loyal to us for years and why doctors and therapists regularly refer clients to us.

How you’ll feel after an hour of personal Pilates training

Many people describe the feeling after their first personal training session like this:
“I feel lighter, more upright, and somehow liberated.”

And that’s exactly the goal. You don’t leave the studio feeling exhausted, but with a better sense of your body. Your breathing is easier, your posture is straighter, and your mind is clearer.

That’s Pilates, and you feel it most intensely during personal training.

How often should you do personal training?

The ideal number of hours for personal training depends on your goal.

If you have symptoms or after an injury: twice a week
For further study in addition to group sessions: once a month
For targeted performance improvement or posture: 1–2 times per week

Consistency is important, but even just a few sessions can make a big difference.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

What do you do during a personal training session?

With personal training, you’ll follow a workout that’s 100% tailored to you. After a detailed assessment, your trainer will create a personalized training plan designed to help you achieve your specific goals. The trainer monitors your form, corrects posture issues, motivates you, and ensures that your exercises are safe and effective. During sessions, they guide you, correct your technique, and flexibly adapt the program to your current condition to ensure maximum safety and effectiveness.

How often should you work out with a personal trainer?

The optimal training frequency is between 1 and 3 sessions per week, depending on your goals, your time availability, and your fitness level. To get started and build a solid technical foundation, one to two sessions per week are ideal. Studies show that 2–3 training sessions per week yield the best results for most fitness goals. Combined with independent training, even one session per week can be enough to monitor your progress and provide new motivation.

When is it a good idea to hire a personal trainer?

A personal trainer is especially helpful for specific fitness goals (such as weight loss, muscle building, or competition preparation), health limitations, or recovery from injuries. They’re also the perfect solution for people with limited time who are looking for maximum efficiency, or for those who haven’t seen results at the gym so far and need a boost of motivation as well as professional guidance. Professional guidance also offers significant advantages when learning new training methods.

Does health insurance cover personal training?

No, individual personal training is not covered by statutory health insurance. It is a private service and is generally not subsidized. Alternative reimbursement options are available for certified health courses under Section 20 of the German Social Code, Book V (SGB V), which are offered in group settings by qualified trainers. It’s best to ask your trainer and your health insurance provider directly about your options.
