Mary Delk Pilates & Fitness

Mary Delk

I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED TO MOVE and have been drawn to athletics ever since I was a little girl! I have always been a runner and love to find the limits of my body in any sport that I do. I have found that Pilates helps me maintain my athleticism, which allows me to participate in Ultrarunning events, mountain biking and to teach my clients every day! I started Pilates in 2001 and knew that teaching would allow me to share the gift of what Pilates can do for your body and mind. I completed my certification program in 2007 with Romana's Pilates and was certified in the Classical method.

Drea Miran

I’ve been dancing since the age of 3 and trained in multiple styles including ballet, lyrical, jazz, tap, and hip-hop. I started my dance career at a local studio in NY called The Bernice Johnson Cultural Arts Center, but I also studied for several years at American Ballet Theatre, Alvin Ailey, and the High School of Performing Arts in New York City. I am currently an aerobics, dance, and Acro dance instructor and I teach resistance training, barre, and step, as well as hip-hop, lyrical, ballet, and jazz.

I am a certified E-RYT Advanced yoga instructor, and I’ve been practicing for over twenty years growing to love and respect the discipline immensely! Yoga keeps me physically fit, spiritually aware, and connected to
my dance roots. My yoga journey has been amazing, and I will continue my practice with students and personally for the rest of my life.
