MarShere Dance Studios is the largest dance studio group in Victoria and Australia!
MarShere was established in 1981 by Mark & Sheryl O'Donoghue at a school hall in Burwood Heights, Melbourne. From it's first class, they have since developed a system of tuition based on family and caring. In having a family themselves, it allowed them to develop a special formula for not only the individual, but for the entire family.
What has made MarShere so successful is that this business is based on the three basic reasons why people dance: to learn, exercise, socialise. This focus that Mark and Sheryl have created has turned MarShere into one of the largest dance studio groups in Australia. Mark and Sheryl call it their "extended family".
MarShere has always been a family business and pride ourselves on the fact that each location is in it's own way a family, where it is fun to learn to dance in a comfortable and social environment.
The style has grown in popularity and spread internationally as a standard ballroom dance style. The Argentine Tango has added modern elements to the dance without removing the classic elements of the style.
