Zena Rommett Floor-Barre Foundation
Founded 1968 NYC

The Mission of the Zena Rommett Floor-Barre Foundation is to preserve and promote the highly regarded Floor-Barre® Technique for dancers, athletes, the injured, elderly and everyone desiring the alignment and strengthening health benefits of this gentle, yet highly effective Technique.
This is accomplished through the teaching of classes, the production of DVDs and educational materials, and the certification of Floor-Barre® instructors every July in Europe (Florence ’12 & ’13; Venice ’14 & ’15; Paris ’16 & ’17; Rome ’18 & ’19 and Barcelona ’22 & ’23), every August in New York City and every February in Latin America (Playa del Carmen, Mexico ’18 ~ ’22).

Donations
Please help archive Zena Rommett’s work. We need funds to complete the book, create teacher training DVDs from footage of her teaching at certifications and transfer 100s of old VHS tapes to DVDs and Streaming. Our goal is to raise $10,000. Thank you for your kind consideration to help with any amount that you can.
