Cindy Brain has been a professional in dance and fitness for over 26 years. After graduating from Indiana University, she performed with modern dance companies in the Midwest, then moved to the Bay Area in 1980 to continue her career. Cindy was a member of Virginia Matthews Dance Company, San Francisco, for seven years until parenthood took priority.

Her movement needs led to certifications in fitness; Cindy taught for 14 years as an aerobics instructor and also became a personal trainer. Through fitness conferences, she became familiar with Pilates. Cindy completed Pilates certifications and now teaches private and group apparatus sessions as well as mat classes. Her certifications are with the American College of Sports Medicine and the PhysicalMind Institute. With an emphasis on rehabilitation and efficiency of movement, Cindy guides her students to better understand their individual needs.
