For studio owners and venue operators ready to work alongside us.

A great class deserves a clear path to enrollment.

You may have the space, the teachers and the passion. Now you need a simple way for people to find you, understand your offer and take the next step.

We work with you on the pieces between “I’m interested” and “I’m enrolled”—and help your team keep using them after the launch.

What we work on together.

Built around a real dance business.

Waldo & Jacqui bring a dance-business perspective to the work: classes, students, instructors, events and the systems that connect them.

Waldo’s work includes SalsaKnox, Champion Ballroom Knoxville and the development of dance programming at Resurrection Boxing Club in Newport. We start with your business and agree on a plan that fits your market.

Is the residency right for you?

It may be a fit if you have a studio or venue, a person who can make business decisions, a team ready to implement, and a budget for the service plus launch costs. You do not need to have every system in place already.

This is collaborative implementation—not a promise of a specific number of students or a guaranteed revenue result.

Before you apply.

What does the $30,000 cover?

The service fee for the agreed one-month onsite residency. Your written scope will define deliverables, onsite working days and team responsibilities before you commit.

Are travel and hotel included?

No. Travel to your city, hotel and transportation within your city are additional. We agree on the expense arrangements before booking. Advertising, software and other third-party costs are also separate.

Can we work together without travel?

Yes. Select the $997/month remote option in your application. For the digital learning and community option in Skool, select $97/month. We will share the appropriate next steps.

Does applying mean I have to buy?

No. Applying does not enroll you, reserve dates or charge your card. We review your studio and discuss the fit first.

Do you guarantee business results?

No. Results depend on your offer, market, team, budget and implementation. We agree on the work and responsibilities before starting.
