The list goes on and on.<br /><br />Running a dance studio is a business. And to have a healthy, successful business thrive we have to set fees to not only cover expenses but pay the salaries of the talented, capable faculty and staff that work there on top of everything else above.<br /><br />To offer the best dance training to the dancers, the studio owner and teachers need to be able to access ongoing eduction, training and opportunities to learn and grow.<br /><br />I'd like to say that the gap in understanding could be solved overnight but I believe it will take some on going conversation and education to do so.<br /><br />I'm happy to help in any way that I can as I'm here to advocate for studio owners and their students/parents to have a great working relationship.<br /><br />Best,<br />Suzanne Blake Gerety<br />www.DanceStudioOwner.com<br />Co-Founder, Editor<br />@SuzanneGerety on TwitterSuzanne Geretyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15729608160609803556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1027928423702236616.post-41804299820448027862010-10-23T08:24:43.374-04:002010-10-23T08:24:43.374-04:00I say you go for a jag convertible!I say you go for a jag convertible!Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16923550942446921833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1027928423702236616.post-77763055456929699232010-10-22T18:27:25.358-04:002010-10-22T18:27:25.358-04:00As a studio owner I completely agree!
