HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROMANA

Romana Kryzaowska was a teenager when she was first introduced to Joseph and Clara Pilates by George Balanchine after suffering an ankle injury while dancing at Mr. Balanchine’s School of American Ballet. She began working directly with Mr. Pilates in his New York studio and to this day continues her active participation in the Pilates community and promoting the virtues of the Pilates Method.

Romana turns 89 and she’s still going strong! Happy Birthday Romana – you are an inspiration!

I’ve included a short clip of Romana and Mr. Pilates working together. Enjoy!
