Dance teacher training that will change the way you see, do, and think about dance.

 

At Leap ’N Learn there’s one thing we do really, really well…

We equip teachers and studio owners with the skills and confidence to deliver high-quality, engaging, and consistent dance classes that keep kids and parents coming back for more.

How do we know we ‘re so good at it?

Because we convert teachers who HATED teaching preschoolers 🙅🏽‍♀️…

…into teachers who now specialize and LOVE to teach under 6’s 😍

If you’ve ever felt the dread of being confronted with a class of 3-4 year olds when you’ve had no training and no guidance on what or how to teach children, then you know that this. is. HUGE.

Professional development for your dance studio

When it comes to planning and teaching joyful, stress-free children’s dance classes, you need more than inspiration and ideas.

You need to know what to teach, how to teach it, and why.

And when it comes to running a successful dance studio business business you need a whole lot more than students in your classes.

You need streamlined systems and an intentional, values-aligned customer experience that makes students that stick with you like glue from preschool till graduation and beyond.

We’ve been training teachers for 20+ years and counting.

We’ve run a successful dance studio for 13 years with booked out classes, long waitlists, and we didn’t spend a cent on marketing.

We lived our values.

We knew what our customers wanted.

We delivered an outstanding student experience that converted our customers into raving fans. … and you can too!

Communication that converts

It’s not enough to just get students in the door.

You need to keep them!

In this workshop you’ll define and refine your student experience to convert and retain your dream students.

Word of mouth is the best marketing possible, so if you want your customers talking about you in all the right ways, then you need a clear process for communication that guides every new student to feel like they belong to your studio community.

If you want to grow and systemise your studio by delivering exceptional customer experience – from the first enquiry to when they walk off the stage at the end of the year – then this workshop is for you!

This workshop is made for:

  • studio owners

  • The 2 hour initial training workshop will get you to understand your studio values and how you can bring them to life in your studio. We’ll guide you through a 4 stage process to nurture enquiries so that they enroll and stay enrolled for years on end. You’ll leave the workshop with:
    • enquiry to enrolment pipeline

    • email scripts

    • conversation starters for your teachers and admin team

    We’ll give you templates and help you craft email scripts and conversation starters so you and your team are all on the same page. And we’ll give advice on the tech side of things to make sure your systems are doing what they need.

  • Learning is one thing, but implementation is where it’s at… and sometimes that requires a little accountability.

    We’re not going to teach you a bunch of stuff and send you out in the wild. We’ll give you the knowledge and the tools and the guidance, then give you the time to implement. At the end of the 2-hour initial workshop, we’ll schedule a time to meet up again for a follow up call so you have time to implement and we can check in to see how it’s going. You’ll also get
