Lindy Brown

I have been a fitness enthusiast for over 10 years and my main love is for Group Fitness which is where I got my foot into the industry.  I started as a paying member at the facility I now Direct.  Refinery is a trendy/upscale health club in Central Illinois that has paved the way for a group fitness revolution in our area.  I received my certification in cycling/spinning in early 2006 and began teaching early morning classes, then moved on to evening classes.  In the fall of 2006 I completed the 3-day training to become a BodyPump instructor with Les Mills.  I have been teaching both formats 2 times per week since I received my certification.  In the fall of 2009 I also received my Mat Pilates certification and began teaching it once per week.  The classes I instruct at Refinery are some of the most highly attended on our schedule.
I also serve as Executive Director of Refinery in charge of business development, marketing and management, business oversight and more.  In the fall of 2008 I was chosen one of 40 business leaders under 40 years old in Central Illinois.  I am a strong and capable leader and I love to help people get into shape and understand the importance of taking care of their body!
