Vital Pilates is a proud annual sponsor of our Muscle Movement Fdn. Delaware Run for Strength 5k. This is the third consecutive year Vital Pilates has sponsored our event by way of monetary contribution and in-kind donation!

Join us at the 5k's after party for a chance to win a gift certificate to Vital Pilates to train with Mara Raskin! Mara trained extensively in New York City and achieved Certified Instructor status in early 2003 from Joseph Pilates’ protégé, Master Instructor Romana Kryzanowska. Mara secured a second comprehensive certification in 2008 from Stott Pilates, a contemporary, anatomically-based approach to Joseph Pilates’ original method incorporating modern exercise principles to promote spinal rehabilitation and overall performance enhancement. These certifications enable her to work with clients across a broad spectrum, from injury rehabilitation through competitive athletes. Mara can often be found instructing Hatha yoga outdoors, both on a Mat and on a slackline, applying her broad skills to ensure safe play, alignment, and lots of laughter and fun!  Mara has a passion for helping others to improve their physical awareness and quality of life through the application of intentional, controlled movement… on the ground and in the air!
