Your space, your freedom

Our Studios came into being spontaneously one day after a fun idea evolved into something much bigger…

Our founder was looking for a place where her Bachata team could do some extra dance practices pre-competition and it turned out to be harder than imagined! Firstly, there wasn’t many options for casual studio hire and every where we did find was such a process, contacting for availability, filling out application forms, or waiting for someone to come back to you…

What we wanted and what we needed was a Space that we could book right away, then go and dance in it. No fuss, No waiting…. and so Evolve Studios, the home of on demand Studio Hire that’s booked online was created.

Because life’s meant to be easy right, so here’s to spending more time doing the things we love!

All of the studios are designed to be beautiful blank canvases that are suitable for any type of hire.

How does the Unique Door Code work?
When you make a booking, our system will generate a door code that is unique to your booking and send it straight to your email. This code is unique to you and your one-off booking. All casual booking codes will only work once. Regular hirers will get one code unique to them that will allow repeat entries. Head to the Carlyle Street entrance, enter your unique code on the pin pad on the front door and enter. Codes allow access in, there is no code required to leave the building.
How do I work the door?

Have your code ready. Touch your full palm on the black screen of the door handle to illuminate the pin pad. Enter the code. Push the * (star) key. Door will make an unlocked sound. Push the handle down like a normal door handle, pull the door open and you’re free to enter.

What if my code isn’t working?
Call our emergency help line here.
What do I need to bring?

All you need to bring is yourself and the items specific to your usage, whether it’s your laptop or your yoga mats. The studios all have Stereos with Bluetooth and Aux cords for music, mirrors, heating and cooling and change facilities.

Can I wear high heels or ballet pointes?

Absolutely, its a Studio hire venue that used for dance and many other things so high heels, ballet pointes, roller skates, chairs etc are all fine. If any accidental damage happens just let us know, no problems.

I want to attend a class, how does this work?

Checked the timetable and found a fun looking class? All the classes listed are available to join, so check the time and pop down! Most classes have casual drop in rates so you can try one class before signing up for the full month or block. If you have specific questions contact the class holder directly. Classes named Team or private are closed groups, definitely message those ones first if you’re interested. Check the list of Teachers here

Do we have a membership?

No, there is no membership options at Evolve Studios. Individual gatherings may have their own pricing structures.

Can I have alcohol at my Event?

Yes, if you are holding a personal event such as a birthday party then alcohol is ok. If you are holding an event that sells tickets you must apply for a temporary liquor license for the event. Cleaning supplies such as a mop, clothes and broom are located in the kitchenette in the back of Studio 1. We just ask that the Studio is clean and restored to its original condition ready for the next hirer after you.

Can I use sage, incense and/or candles during my event?

Yes, sage and incense is absolutely ok. Candles are ok too, just ensure that you use safe candle practices and extinguish after use. If needed, open a window or external door to give the studio a wee air out after your event and then close up before leaving.
