Phoebe Higgins

Phoebe Higgins, PMA® Gold Certified, studied at the School of American Ballet and trained in various dance techniques including the Simonson technique and the Kevin Wynn Collection. She was first introduced to Romana Kryzanowska in 1967 and later resumed her Pilates studies with Romana at SUNY Purchase in 1976 to strengthen a spine weakened by scoliosis.

Phoebe worked at the original Pilates Studio under Romana’s guidance from 1980 until its closure in 1989, later contributing to the foundation of Power Pilates. She organized successful Pilates programs for professional students at both the School of American Ballet and Ballet Academy East.

Since 2006, Phoebe has worked independently, continuing to share her extensive knowledge through private sessions and workshops, with a vision of spreading the freedom of movement through Pilates worldwide.
