As a young dancer, Romana was introduced to Joseph Pilates in 1941 by George Balanchine when she suffered an ankle injury. She quickly learned the amazing benefits of Joe\u2019s work, noticing not only improvement in her ankle but in her overall dancing.<\/p>

In 1944, Romana married and moved to Peru, but she continued to visit and study \u2018Uncle Joe\u2019 in New York. Romana taught her young son and daughter Pilates techniques to keep them strong and flexible. Joe crafted customized baby leg springs for Romana\u2019s children and called them his \u2018Pilates babies\u2019.<\/p>

In 1958, Romana and her two children, Sari and Paul, moved back to New York and Romana worked with Joseph and Clara in the studio learning, teaching and mastering the method until Joe\u2019s death in 1967. Romana continued to work with Clara until she died in 1979 and oversaw the training of clients and teachers at the studio. Of all the Pilates elders (those who trained with Joseph Pilates directly) Romana worked with him the longest and had the deepest understanding of his work.\u00a0<\/p> \n \t<\/div>\n \t <\/div>\n \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Romana became Joseph and Clara\u2019s chosen successor and kept the studio and the Pilates method alive by training 1000s of clients and teachers. She traveled and taught all over the world and created an international community of Pilates studios and training centers.<\/p>

On August 30 2013, Romana passed away. Although she is greatly missed, her spirit and memory live on through her prot\u00e9g\u00e9es. She will be forever remembered and her legacy and the Pilates family she created grows every day.<\/p>
