WELCOME TO
STEP BEYOND STUDIOS

OUR STORY

Step Beyond Studios is a community dance studio based in Torbay, Auckland. We have a team of highly regarded professionals dedicated to bringing the highest quality of dance tuition in Ballet and Contemporary Dance. 

​

At Step Beyond Studios, we believe in the power of positive dance. An exam and competition free community, we encourage our young people to support one another and to develop and evolve their sense of confidence, technique and creativity in a healthy environment.

​

Over the past 25 years, Marian McDermott has been developing Step Beyond Studios. Throughout this process she has made some gutsy decisions about her approach to dance teaching. No exams, no competitions, but a place for young people to learn and grow their skill and creativity in a positive and encouraging environment. Hundreds of young people have passed through this staple institution over the years, often moving on to full time training and professional projects. When Isabella Pasley took over as director in 2022, she wanted to continue Marian's legacy and shares Marian's belief in the importance of creating safe, creative spaces for our young people.
