​

When she was 17, she qualified to attend the Bolshoi Theatre School in Brazil, the only school of Bolshoi theatre outside of Russia, and graduated as a classical ballerina.

With this achievement, Cintia has been working as a teacher and choreographer at a hightly respected studio in New Zealand.
