Woburn, MA -- January 4, 2008 -- Phillip Wojcik, a professional ballroom dance Instructor at Studio 665 in Woburn , has been selected to be a coach on MTV’s popular television series “Made”.

It has been fantastic working with the MTV folks. I have enjoyed every minute of it.” The episode will air on MTV on January 12, 2008 at 1:00PM.
