Our History
From running a couple of classes per week out of a school hall, into one of the largest Dance Studio groups in Australia - this is our story.
MarShere was established in 1981 by Mark & Sheryl O'Donoghue at a school hall in Burwood Heights, Melbourne. From its 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".
Why MarShere? - "Mark & Sheryl"
Today, their aim is to take MarShere Dance Studios to a new level - to make dancing something that the whole family can do, and enjoy together.
As Mark and Sheryl say: "No matter what your ability, the hardest step is always the one to walk through the door!
