Dance & Arts Studio

Dance & Arts Studio is a welcoming creative hub where dancers, artists and passionate individuals come together to move, express and connect. Built on community, inclusivity and artistry, our studio offers a supportive environment for people of all experience levels — from complete beginners to experienced performers.

Founded by professional dancer and choreographer Mercedes Olivera, Dance & Arts Studio was created from a genuine understanding of what creatives truly need: a space where people feel comfortable expressing themselves, exploring their originality and simply being who they are. As a small business built from passion, every class, event and experience is created with heart, authenticity and a real love for the arts community.

Mercedes is a 6x Australian Salsa & Bachata Champion, an Australian representative for Fania Records’ Around the World project — selected among dancers globally — and an experienced performer, instructor and accredited competition judge. With years of experience teaching, performing and creating within the dance industry, her vision for the studio has always been to create more than just a place to train, but a space where creativity, confidence and connection can thrive.

More than just a dance studio, Dance & Arts Studio is a place where movement becomes self-expression and community comes to life. From Latin dance and ballroom to heels, conditioning, workshops and creative arts, the studio brings together talented instructors and diverse styles under one roof in an environment fully equipped to support creativity and growth.

At Dance & Arts Studio, we believe dance is for everyone. Whether you’re here to learn a new skill, meet like-minded people, train, perform or simply enjoy moving in a welcoming and inspiring environment, our goal is to create a space where artistry truly finds its stage.
