MeJo Wiggin began her extensive study with Master Teacher Romana Kryzanowska in 1990, and began teaching next to her in 1995 at Drago’s Gym in New York. She not only had the privilege to work directly with Romana, but she also studied with Sari Mejia Santos, Kathy Grant, Jay Grimes, and Bob Liekens. Today, with over 20 years of experience, and certified by Romana in 2003 as one of her Teacher Trainers, MeJo is a full fledged Pilates Guru with an international reputation.

"She is poetry in motion".
-Romana

Considered in the industry as Romana’s protégé, MeJo is recognized as one of the leading Master Teachers and practitioners in the world. In fact, Romana would often refer to her work as "poetry in motion" and in 2002 Romana gave her the gold card in recognition of her advanced abilities.

MeJo is a featured artist in over six DVD’s, including the “Romana’s Pilates Mat” series, “The Legacy” DVD series, and her own videos which she hosted and produced “20 Minutes, Twice a Week”, and "The Gratz Arm Chair". She earned many appearances on national television, and has been written up in numerous publications, and has been sought after for her teaching seminars throughout the U.S., Europe, and Russia.

In 1996, MeJo opened the first fully equipped Pilates Studio in  Connecticut. It became such a success, that her studio, MeJo Wiggin, LLC, in Greenwich Connecticut, eventually occupied two floors and became the largest studio in Connecticut, and “MeJo” became a household name. She has taught many teachers, celebrities, professional athletes, and supermodels. Some of her students include:

• 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 learned to apply 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  Classical Pilates Method.
