Mariela Carter is the most attentive pilates instructor you will ever find. I highly recommend her. I've been a client for years and she's really helped me work through some challenging physical problems. Her studio is spotless, her equipment completely up to date and her methods are outstanding!

Mariela is an amazing Pilates expert. In addition, she is a physical therapist and so knowledgeable about the body. A few years ago, I use to go to the pain clinic to get epidurals to relieve my back pain and ever since I started Pilates with Mariela, I stopped going to the clinic and learned how to get out of pain via exercises with her. She knows how to make a accommodations when I'm in pain and consistently asks how I'm feeling. Pilates is my drug of choice! Can't do without it or Mariela!

I rarely review businesses or places, but Mariela was so wonderful. I moved up from Orange County 3 months ago to the Valley. After a month I injured a bulging disc in my L4/L5. My insurance had not transferred up here yet and I was in massive pain. I had to do something quick till my insurance kicked in and I could go to a doctor. I walked into her place crying and bent over just to walk. I decided to only private coaching 3 times a week. Let me tell you she saved my life. In a month she helped me make it through the pain and helped me walk again. I was never a believer in Pilates in Yoga, but her goal was to stretch my spin so the disc would go off the nerve and relieve the pain. Now I do private lessons twice a week and my pain is relieved. Thank you Mariela you saved my life.

Mariela is a wonderful instructor. She considers your injuries and gives you ways to still get a great workout without hurting yourself. I have been to other mat classes and felt like I never knew if I was positioned correctly. Not here. Also, she changes things up just a little to keep improving your overall muscle strength over time.

I have been doing mat classes and private sessions with Mariela for well over 10 years. Mariela is an expert in her field. Her mat classes are challenging. She is aware of the latest Pilates techniques and with her physical therapy background she is able to tailor the private sessions to an individual's needs and capabilities. My core strength, posture and flexibility has greatly improved in the time that I have been working with her. She cares about her clients and wants to see us progress to be the healthiest we can be.

I started Pilates 12 years ago with the hope it would help with sciatica pain I had been living with. It did help and I enjoyed it, but it wasn't until meeting Mariela seven years ago that I became totally dedicated. Not only is she a wonderful instructor, she is a very caring individual, in tune with each client's special needs. Her studio is open and airy and never crowded like other Pilates studios. Love attending her mat classes, which are both challenging and beneficial to all parts of your body, and they are done at a fun and steady pace. I also see her privately where she has designed specific programs and exercises for my scoliosis and also osteoporosis using the reformer and her other great equipment. Under Mariela's guidance, she is continually helping me grow stronger and am very grateful to her for all she's helped me to accomplish.

Pilates with Mariela helps me with my golf game. Mariela also helped me after rotator cuff surgery. Because I had been doing Pilates before my bike injury, my recovery post-surgery was much quicker.
I highly recommend Mariela and Vital Innovative Pilates.

I have been working with Mariela for a number of years. I used to have back issues but these have now resolved. Mariela is a wonderful instructor and takes a highly personalized approach; working around each person's capabilities and limitations. She has a great studio with very nice natural light and all the latest equipment. Importantly her approach is good for all ages and I have become more mobile with age thanks to regular sessions with Mariela. I know a number of her other client's and we're all very happy with the results. Highly recommended!!

Mariela is the best! After suffering for a year with a compressed disc; severe back and leg pain.... I am now pain free thanks to the core strengthening and personal care Mariela provides. She is gifted at assessing your needs and works to provide individual work outs for each of her clients in a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend her mat classes!!
