Ballet Move in-person classes are back in Fitzroy, Melbourne! Ballet Move is an easy to follow, fitness-based class for all. The class is facilitated by Sheena Chundee, former Choreographer and Ballerina with The Royal Ballet (UK).
Each session begins with a gentle warm-up combining stretching and simple movements. We then move on to barre-inspired techniques that help you to tone, strengthen, and lengthen muscles. This is followed by low impact, standing movements and we finish with a section of mat work for our cool down.
Each exercise can be adapted to suit all levels, so if you're finding something a little hard, we can give you modifications that will make things easier and suitable for you.
The exercises are low-impact, which means there's no stress on the joints and we take plenty of time to stretch in between exercises allowing you to catch your breath and release any tension. We also integrate mat work exercises which means we activate different areas of our bodies and learn how to strengthen and use muscles in different ways.
There is always the option to grab a sneaky "breakfast beer" from our little bar and hang out with Sheena and other participants afterwards for a bite to eat and a chat. These classes are social, fun and oh, did we mention the awesome rock, pop, disco, blues playlists?
You'll finish the class feeling refreshed and inspired to continue moving your body is fun ways!
Please note: Classes will be capped at 10 people to maintain social distancing.

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.
