Welcome to Cheza Downunder
Where rhythm meets fitness, and culture meets movement.
Hello, my name is Ebony and I am the face behind Cheza Downunder.
​
Growing up in the city of Newcastle, NSW I'm grateful to have engaged and be involved in our culturally diverse communities over a vast number of grounds. Through observation I had a simple yet profound realization: the absence of consistent Afro Dance experiences here which wasn't being catered to like our neighbouring bigger cities and so I went out on a mission to change that.
I founded Cheza Downunder with the vison to bring people together regardless of our ethnicity, nationality or status to participate in Afro Dance and Fitness experiences. To provide a holistic and wellness approach to Dance Fitness and host a safe and nurturing space free from judgement, encouraging body positivity and self-confidence to live your best healthy active life.
​
Ebony has always been surrounded by Dance, Music and the arts from a young age. Knowing first hand the goodness that can come from it and the amazing health benefits. Accompanied with her love of fitness this inspired Ebony to combine the trio and result is Cheza Downunder.
Cheza Downunder has created a space for diverse people to come together as one. Offering an alternative to the mainstream. Cheza Downunder is different from your typical dance class. Ebony's Mission is to cultivate a vibrant community that continues to embrace cultural diversity and inclusivity, health and most of all Joy.​​​
