Pilates4Fitness led the Hudson County "Get Fit Day" in Braddock Park on July 31, 2010. A perfect summer day with great participation from other Health & Fitness businesses. Adra Lemos, WePlayYoga; Melissa Carias, VivaFit; Master Jay Kim, East Coast Fitness were joined by Guttenberg Mayor Gerald Drasheff and Councilman Al Caso and about 100+ residents of the surrounding area throughout the morning for laughs, dance, movement and exercise.

The event was developed in recognition of First Lady Michelle Obama's "Let's Move" initiative to fight the threat of childhood obesity. The business owners represented agreed that adults, as role models, have some serious work to do as well.

Adra Lemos and Master Jay Kim, TaeKwanDo, East Coast Fitness brought both their spouse and children, as did many other community members involved with the morning's activities.

Mayor Gerald Drasheff not only assisted in rallying the other civic leaders to participate, but actively joined in the activities, working out with a resistance band exercise, led by Gina Jackson, Pilates4Fitness Movement Space.
