So you want to open a yoga studio for kids?
I've got your back.
When I decided to open my studio a year ago, I searched the web and bought everything I could find that had anything to do with kids yoga studios ... how to open one, how to run one, ideas on how to manage one.
Know how many books I found?
Zero. Zilch. Nada.
Seriously. Try it. Type in something like, "How to open a kids yoga studio" in your browser and see what you get. You'll see some hits on how to teach yoga to kids, but no step-by-step guide on how to actually open your own kids yoga studio. Try Amazon. Go to your local book store and search. Ask your friends.
There's nothing.
And let me tell you ... I get messages almost every single day from people asking me how I did it, what tips I could pass on to them, and what I think they need to do to open their own kids yoga studio, so I knooow there's a need out there.
I couldn't find any guidance when I opened my studio, so I learned everything on my own the hard way. But, I did learn. And I recently took the time to sit down and write it all out. Everything ... from choosing your studio's colors, to creating a logo, to making a list of what kinds of forms you need to run your studio day-to-day. Marketing tips, social media secrets, how to create a newsletter, and what you should include on your studio's website. Ideas on how you can partner with your community, a checklist of things you should look for when finding your own space, and how to create a class schedule.
I included it all ... everything I could think of that would help you with opening your own studio. My top tips, my biggest mistakes (and, trust me - I've made plenty!), and the most important things I've learned in the past year. And I'm dying to share it all with you.
Come spend a long weekend with me and we'll go through everything, step-by-step.

What, exactly, will I learn?
You'll receive your own manual/workbook that will cover:
- Designing your studio (choosing a vibe, colors, props, etc.)
- Tips on creating your studio's logo and what you should think about when choosing a studio name
- A checklist of things to look for (and ask) when shopping for a space with your realtor
- How to write your studio's mission statement
- Marketing ideas
- Social media secrets (for Instagram and Facebook)
- Writing newsletters and tips on parent communication
- Ideas on how to partner with your community for special events
- Monthly studio expenses to be aware of and how to budget for them
- Finding, creating, and developing your studio's brand
- What you need to include on your studio's website
- Making a monthly class schedule
- How to run studio birthday parties and craft nights (which have both been great money makers for me)
We'll also be making vision boards, studying color theory, creating a mood board for your brand, and sketching out logo ideas. Plus, I'll give you a copy of every business form I use to run my studio (class lists, new yogi enrollment forms, invoices, a social media planner, to-do lists, studio gift certificates, etc.).
I'm not holding anything back. I want you to leave this workshop prepared, confident, and ready to open your own kids yoga studio.
