MeJo Wiggin began her extensive study of Pilates with Master Teacher Romana Kryzanowska in 1990, and began teaching next to her in 1995 at Drago’s Gym in New York. Today with 20 years of experience, and certified by Romana as her Teacher Trainer, she is a full fledged Pilates Guru with an international reputation.

Considered in the industry as one of Romana’s protégés, MeJo is recognized as one of the leading Master Teachers and Practitioner in the world. She has earned many appearances on National Television and has been written up in numerous publications for her expertise in Pilates. In addition, MeJo is a featured artist in over six DVD’s, including the “Romana’s Pilates Mat” series, “The Legacy” DVD series, and her own video which she hosted and produced “20 Minutes, Twice a Week”. She has been sought after for teaching seminars and giving personal demonstrations at Pilates Training Centers throughout the US, Europe, and Russia. Some of the prestigious events she taught at included the Olimpiski Sport Arena in Moscow (over 18 thousand in attendance), Forum Sport Center in Rome, and the Classical Pilates Intensive in Big Bear, CA.

In 1996 MeJo opened the first fully equipped Pilates Studio in Connecticut. It became such a success, that her studio, (MeJo Wiggin, LLC.) which occupied two floors of a building in downtown Greenwich, became the largest studio in CT, and “MeJo” became a household name. For 13 years she taught many teachers, celebrities, professional athletes, and supermodels. Some of her students included:

• Stephanie Seymour, Liza Minnelli, Bryce Dallas Howard, Michelle Pfeiffer

• Members of The Paul Taylor Dance Co. and Cortez & Company Contemporary Ballet

• The White Birch Polo Team

• Broadway dancers from Beauty and The Beast, Cats, The Lion King, Damn Yankees, and many other famous productions

In addition, MeJo applied the Method to students suffering with various injuries and chronic pain. Many students worked with MeJo to help rehabilitate back pain, shoulder injuries, hip replacements, knee injuries, scoliosis, and many other ailments. She quickly gained popularity, and soon doctors from New York Hospital for Special Surgery were referring their patients to MeJo in order to rehabilitate them pre and post surgery.

Today MeJo is still a strong advocate and example of the Classical Pilates Method. She is featured on the website of Gratz Industries – Joe Pilates original equipment manufacturer, and teaches at three Pilates Training Schools in the U.S. She still teaches private sessions, but her mission is to continue teaching seminars and educating Pilates instructors worldwide in the many benefits of the True Classical Pilates Method.
