Cariba Heine

Cariba Heine is a South African-born Australian actress and dancer born in Johannesburg to parents Michelle, a former showgirl, and Kevin Heine. She moved to Australia at the age of three with her parents and older brother. Her early days included training in jazz, tap, classical ballet, acrobatics and rhythmic gymnastics. She began dancing professionally at the age of 15 though a career-ending hip injury resulted in a shift into acting. Since falling in love with a more literal medium of story-telling, Cariba has continued working both in front and behind cameras and in other creative fields. She still teaches dance and has a strong focus on injury prevention and rehabilitation. In 2018 Cariba wrote, directed and produced her first film 'BEND' which is in post-production.
