2022 is just around the corner, but if you really want to hit the ground running, you should start preparing TODAY!

Why?

Proactive, future-thinking studio owners (and maybe even your competition) are already putting in place strategies to set them up for success in 2022.

In fact, in the minds of TOP studio owners, 2022 has already started.

Do you dream of starting your own dance business but just don’t know how? Or are you stuck wanting to grow but can’t seem to make progress?

Chief executive officer of DanceLife Unite and managing editor of DanceLife Australia, Chris Duncan, has taken the step to put her 35 years of dance industry knowledge and experience in words in the launch of her first book – DANCEBOSS: From Start-Up Enterprise to Dancepreneur.

Many in the dance industry enter the business world ‘accidentally’ because they just want to find a way to monetise doing what they love. At first it doesn’t even seem like work. Inevitably though, the fun-factor can fade – especially when things get tough (like when a pandemic hits!!)

First time author, Chris Duncan, knows the highs and lows of doing business in dance after a career spanning 35 years. As a teacher, choreographer, and studio owner, then as an agent, publisher, event manager and producer, Chris has dedicated herself to providing as many opportunities as possible for the next generation of dancers to learn, grow and become incredible future professionals. Now, Chris expands her mentoring role to help other passionate DANCEPRENEURS create their own dream enterprise and, in doing so, increase valuable work opportunities within the industry.

Over the next coming weeks, Clint has invited world-class dance studio owners from all over the globe to share their journeys and powerful lessons of running a thriving dance studio in a seemingly lonely industry.

It’s our final CEO Coffee Chat for 2021, and Heather & Patti are going out with a bang!

This week we are talking about what lights your candle. What truly ignites you? What drives you in your business? Do you consider yourself to be successful, and is your studio going down the right path for YOU?

In this conversation we are digging in deep to ask the question: Is your life by design, or is it by default?

You’ll discover how to rediscover joy in your goals, your process, and the tasks that you're doing (instead of creating a monster that you dread seeing each day!)

Pour yourself a coffee, and fall back in love with your studio with business-besties, Heather and Patti.
