MARI WINSOR, "QUEEN OF PILATES" NEEDS SUPPORT

WHY SUPPORT MARI WINSOR?

Every 90 minutes, someone is diagnosed with ALS.

In 2013, Mari Winsor, lovingly known ib the fitness community as the "Queen of Pilates" was diagnosed with ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis), often referred to as Lou Gerhig's disease. 

In November 2016, Mari underwent a tracheostomy. She is currently on full time ventilation to breathe and is fed through a gastric tube. This requires 24/7 homecare from a registered nurse and the out-of-pocket cost of homecare is $12,000 a month. Home healthcare is NOT covered by insurance.

Mari Winsor, who ran two studios one West Hollywood and one in Santa Monica, spent her entire career sharing her wisdom and helping people stay fit and healthy nationally and internationally. Today, she is in the final stages of ALS, unable to move, breathe, speak, or eat on her own. But she is determined to live and YOU can help.

This auction in Support of Mari Winsor is filled with unique, one-of-kind items and experiences, donated by those who love Mari: her A-list clients, friends, family, and the Pilates community at large.

Funds raised in this auction will go directly to a healthcare trust fund set up for Mari and the monies will be distributed specifically to cover her out-of-pocket healthcare needs.

It costs $250,000 a year to provide the care ALS patients need.
