This floor barre class is a ballet-based mat class, suitable for all levels and is designed to help get you moving at home!
The live streaming class will begin with a gentle warm-up before we move on to barre-based exercises which will all be conducted on our mats. There will be no standing exercises during these classes, making it a workout that is low impact and has less impact on joints.
With instruction from a professional ballerina, and playlists that include everything from blues, rock, pop and electro music Ballet Move is a VERY unique way to stay strong and fit. This live online class is easy to follow and suitable for all abilities as we make sure to offer modifications on all exercises.
Floor Barre is facilitated by Sheena Chundee, former choreographer and ballerina with The Royal Ballet, London and Director of Rebel Stepz Arts.
Sheena commenced her dance journey at the tender age of 5, eventually earning a scholarship to The Royal Ballet and transitioning to full-time training by age 11. Alongside her rigorous training, she performed with The Royal Ballet Company and various dance companies such as Netherlands Dance Theatre, The Australian Ballet, and The English National Ballet, delving into choreography and pioneering roles in new productions.
Just a like a barre class, we will be doing movements such as plies, tendus, jete's... but sadly no pirouettes!
The class will consist of lots of stretching and yoga-inspired movements that focus on increasing flexibility, while the barre exercises will help to improve posture and muscle tone.
Sheena always offers modifications if something doesn't feel right or you're finding something hard, or even suffering from an injury. There's the option to add resistance with light hand weights (tins of food or bottles of water also work).
*Please note the Zoom meeting is locked after 5 minutes to avoid impedeing the flow of the class. Latecomers will not be permitted after this time.
We do not offer recordings of sessions and cannot offer transfers to other sessions if a class is missed.

Myself and my collective, Rebel Stepz, believes in making the Arts accessible to our community.
We create a fun, safe, educational and creative environment where people of all ages can not only connect with each other, but also with their creativity and with the amazing talent we have facilitating our workshops.
Every workshop we hold is an opportunity for everyone to discover a facet of the arts, whether that be through painting, singing, dancing, craftwork, film, acting, dance or music.
Rebel Stepz offers fun and educational corporate team building activities globally that increase workplace wellbeing, and encourages creativity whilst improving team morale.
Workshops can be organised in person (for those based in Melbourne) or online for other areas of Australia and worldwide.
Rebel Stepz also offers live entertainment for your event which can include live musicians and dancers and even a custom piece that can be produced and choreographed especially for your event.
About me!
I commenced my dance journey at the tender age of 5, eventually earning a scholarship to The Royal Ballet London) and transitioning to full-time training by age 11. Alongside my rigorous training, I performed with The Royal Ballet Company and various European dance companies, also delving into choreography and pioneering roles in new productions.
In the early 2000s, I embarked on curating and facilitating creative workshops for community organizations, striving to democratize the arts and extend its reach to underprivileged communities. This endeavor involved collaboration with company directors, educators, and health professionals to craft inclusive and educational arts programs.
Augmenting my dance background, I pursued a Bachelor’s degree in Journalism and Creative Writing, nurturing her passion for literature, writing, and poetry. Concurrently, she assumed the role of Assistant Manager at a West End Theatre, overseeing daily operations and Front of House management. My involvement in community radio sparked an interest in sound engineering, leading her to earn a diploma and subsequently work in the live music industry.
Upon relocating to Melbourne in 2009, I leveraged my extensive experience and network in the arts to establish Rebel Stepz. This multicultural arts organization comprises diverse talents spanning theater technicians, set and costume designers, dancers, choreographers, musicians, writers, and artists. Together with Rebel Stepz, I curate events, workshops, programs, and production packages, catering to various projects all over the world.
I persist in my multifaceted roles as a choreographer, facilitator, event manager, producer and mentor. Continuously evolving, I am presently immersed in the study of sports psychology, aiming to apply my insights to support artists and performers in their endeavors.
