Renata Marsal

Comprehensive Rehabilitative Pilates Certification

STOTT PILATES®, Total Barre®

For over 20 years, Renata has worked directly with clients, as well as in close collaboration with healthcare providers to address unique client/patient needs, earning  a reputation for creative teaching styles, and uniquely solid results.

Renata first came to Pilates at the age of 19, when a dancer's knee injury was unresponsive to the typical rehab of the time, and a choreographer insisted she "get Pilates immediately"...it was love at first core exercise. Many years later, Pilates was essential when she was facing a debilitating battle with stage-4 endometriosis. Discovering a science-based approach to Pilates, STOTT Pilates, she has not looked back! Even after years of multiple abdominal surgeries and chronic pain, she recovered far quicker and stronger than any of her medical team expected, and she was motivated to share with others the restorative value of Contemporary Pilates.

Renata is fortunate to have studied extensively over the years with pioneering Master Instructor Trainer and mentor, Melanie Byford-Young PT, and Instructor Trainer and mentor, Jean Leavenworth, ultimately earning the prestigious STOTT PILATES® Comprehensive Rehabilitative Certification thru Pacific Northwest Pilates. She continues her training in various special populations and advances in exercise science for Pilates. 

"In my down-time, there is little better than gardening, cooking, and entertaining with friends, or stealing time for working on old house restoration, which of course, requires walking the talk of mindful exercise to keep up with an active lifestyle."
