“I have lead PSD students and staff over the last 10 years and I am incredibly proud of the many great achievements inside and outside of the dance studio. Whilst these achievements are wonderful they are not certainly not our only definition of success. As a Director, I am most proud of the kids that have struggled with confidence, faced learning challenges, suffered with anxiety, felt shy or even been bullied at school. I am proud of those kids more than anything, for getting in and having a go and being the best versions of themselves. Time and time again I have conversations with parents who tell me “dance is his/her happy place”. I am so proud of the nurturing culture at PSD and it is this in which I will continue to invest the most energy in.” - Melanie Gard, Peninsula School of Dance

For more than 15 years, today’s guest Jonathan Pritchard has traveled the world as a professional mentalist entertaining troops stationed overseas, performing on Vegas main stages, appearing on national television, and writing books including ‘Think Like A Mind Reader’ and ‘Learn Like A Mind Reader’.

Today, Jonathan spends his time working with entrepreneurs and business owners to show how the psychology he uses on stage is the same psychology that drives effective communication, influence, negotiations, and sales.

Today's guest is an Entrepreneur, Profitability Consultant and hosts his own daily podcast, Peak Performers Podcast.

Thor Conklin has a talent for slicing through the noise of every day distractions and help business owners break through to the next level of achievement.

He serves as a professional mentor and facilitator of entrepreneur groups within Atlanta’s Entrepreneur’s Organization, and he has been a Senior Leader within the Tony Robbins Organization for the past 13 years.

Did you know that 200 million people use Pinterest every month, with over 80% female, including 52% of US millennials?

Not only does Pinterest drive users – known as ‘pinners’ – to your website, but research shows that more than 87 percent of Pinterest users have bought a product because of the site. In today's episode, you'll discover exactly what this exciting news means for your studio!

Today's podcast is all about standing out from the crowd with maximum exposure and minimal cost.

In the last episode of Season One, Jane and Mel draw back the curtain on a core value that has had a tremendous influence on their studio and their identity as studio owners - Inclusivity.

You're going to love this honest insight into the Inclusive dance studio.

Does your heart skip a beat when you hear the word ‘feedback’?

Or ‘constructive criticism’?

Most of the time the answer is yes – you’re only human after all, and nobody likes to hear that aspects of their work or business are underappreciated or simply not working. Not to mention how harsh feedback can stay with you for a long time, keeping you up at night or distracting you from what you should be focused on.

Positive feedback is a different story. We, of course, love and thrive on it. BUT that feeling can be short-lived. Ten compliments in one day can easily be overshadowed by one piece of negative feedback.

Whether we like it or not, ALL feedback is crucial in growing and improving your dance studio, so it’s time to take your ‘emotions’ hat off and replace it with your ‘CEO’ one so that you can learn to embrace feedback from your students, staff, clients, family and friends and step out of your comfort zone for the greater good of your business.

So, let’s get comfortable with being uncomfortable!

Getting things done is a LOT harder than it sounds when juggling the demands of dance studio life, and in today's episode Jane and Mel share their hottest tips for productivity in your business.

Episode one in this 8-part series is all about “Looking Sideways” as a dance studio owner when it comes to dealing with your own competitors.

In 2018, more than ever it is becoming increasingly difficult to tune out from social media and online hype around what other dance studios are doing. Whether it’s the studio around the corner, or on the other side of the world, chances are that every time you are logging onto Facebook or Instagram, you’re face-to-face with dozens of other dance studios.

And it almost always feels as though they are doing a better job.

In today’s episode, Jane and Melanie dig deep into those feelings of doubt, and imposter syndrome that can take hold when you are constantly comparing yourself and your studio to others around you, and why it’s crucial to make a conscious decision that combats your comparison-itis.

The pair also chat about how to deal with copycats in business (including when and how to say something, and when to simply let it go), and how to ethically draw inspiration from others in business to grow and evolve as a dance studio owner.
