International Women’s Day 08.03.26 💜 💫

As we reflect on this year’s theme, Balance the Scales, we’re reminded how important it is that women are heard, supported and able to shape their own futures.

At Studio1 we see this in action through the women choreographers and independent artists developing work, sharing ideas and building community in our studios.

Your creativity, leadership and generosity help shape Brisbane’s independent dance landscape.
We celebrate you — and the work still to be done.
