What is a "Lesson"?

PiYo™ is designed to be used as a teaching tool for instructors looking for a pre-designed program with a large amount of flexibility.

We create a completely new lesson 3 to 4 times a year. PiYo™ gives instructors the freedom to modify and develop the material in a manner which best suits their students.

What does pre-designed mean? It can mean different things to different companies. To Powder Blue Productions, it means giving you the tools you need without taking away your creativity. We respect your ability to recognize and understand the individual needs of your class. It means that we have taken out the guess work. Each new “Lesson” is a perfectly designed complete class from warm-up to cool down. Each class is tested in actual class settings with participants of various levels and in various areas of the country. This allows us to give our PiYo™ instructors a class with proven success built in. Read more about becoming a PiYo™ trained instructor or visit our Event Calendar to sign up for a full day training.

PiYo™ is a strength training and core conditioning class with a Pilates/Yoga foundation. Modifications are included for the group exercise environment. It offers exercise progressions in order to challenge all levels of participants.

Lessons are a complete package. Most PiYo™ Lessons save the instructor time and money. Each lesson includes choreography notes, a choreography DVD with complete class, detailed breakdown, and PiYo™ music. Our earlier Lessons have a more pure mind/body feel, however, as PiYo™ has evolved, so has the music. Later Lessons use a different style of music. It tends to be more rhythmic and does include lyrics.

PiYo™ offers options! You can use our fully formatted pre-designed material. We’ve done the legwork and researched, tested and designed a near “perfect” class that’s yours for the taking. As a trained PiYo™ instructor, you will have the option of using our pre-designed materials (ie. choreography and music). While the idea of using someone else’s choreography may discourage you, we invite you to try the class and decide for yourself. Most find that the material used is similar to their own, but formatted in a way that provides for optimal results. Included with your pre-designed materials, you’ll get a PiYo™ music CD with a carefully crafted music mix that works together with the choreography for a class unlike any other you’ve ever taken. So even though you are able to use your own music, why would you, when you’re handed it?

Most instructors spend countless hours working on class formatting only to have inconsistency. We all have good days and bad days. By using a pre-designed Lesson, you no longer need to worry about writing your daily “lesson plan” or about coming up with new ideas. This allows instructors to focus on their presentation, motivation and instruction as opposed to the chore of developing choreography..
