Welcome to Episode #3 of our brand new podcast series, "Elevate Your Dance Studio" with your special guest hosts, Jodi Shilling and Angela Mannella-Hoffman. This is the podcast for dance studio owners, by dance studio owners. Jodi and Angela both run successful dance studios of their own, while also raising families and navigating the ups, downs and inbetweens of being a business owner - and they have a whole lot of fun along the way!

Episode two in this 6-part series is all about “Looking Sideways” as a dance studio owner when it comes to dealing with your own competitors.

In 2020, 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, Jodi and Angela 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.

Welcome to Season Three of our 'Elevate Your Studio' series with Angela and Jodi. Over the next 8 weeks we will be unlocking the joy within studio ownership with two dance studio owners - just like you - who have experienced the highs, lows, and in-betweens throughout their journey in business.

She is an Emmy Award winner and now Mia Michaels is speaking with Clint about her career, what's ahead and how studio owners and teachers can grow their students and business.
