Meet Liv

FREED DANCE began three years ago as a bold, independent vision led solely by Olivia Scanlan. What started as curated classes across multiple venues quickly gained momentum, evolving from pop-up sessions into a growing movement. As demand expanded and the community strengthened, the vision required permanence. With years of international performance experience behind her, Liv had already established herself as a professionally trained dancer, choreographer, and creative director working across stage, television, and large-scale productions. Born in Australia and raised in New Zealand, her foundation in discipline and performance excellence shaped the standard FREED would become known for.

When she met her life and creative partner, Marcos Peres, the next chapter of FREED DANCE was realised. Together, they transformed the concept into a permanent, purpose-built studio " FREED DANCE STUDIO" — personally overseeing its renovation, design, and creative direction. Today, FREED DANCE STUDIO is co-owned by Liv and Marcos and stands as a refined, premium dance studio — a space built from vision, resilience, and an uncompromising standard of excellence. From independent beginnings to a fully realised creative hub, FREED represents growth, partnership, and the belief that freedom is built through mastery.

TESTIMONIALS

I started dancing to work on my self confidence and reconnect with my more feminine side, and Freed Dance has been the most beautiful opportunity to do so!! Liv has created THE most beautiful, supportive, fun, FREE environment, and every time I dance there I feel incredibly supported and cheered on, regardless of how I look or feel (I'm definitely a newbie to this type of dance). This is such a safe space for women to embrace being a woman. And I swear we spent the whole time laughing. Thanks Liv. Highly recommend! 🧡👠

What an incredible experience! Liv is the most natural, understanding, patient, fun, creative, enthusiastic and inspiring teacher. I went from wearing baggy clothes and standing at the back of class to stripping off and putting my sexiest body suits on and being up front and centre within 2 classes. Liv you have inspired me more than you know and given me so much confidence that I’ve been missing my entire life. You are truely making an astonishing difference in these beautiful peoples lives and helping us all unlock our own super powers. We love you and thank you so much.
