Running a Studio Is Hard. You Don’t Have to Do It Alone.

who we are
The Business Support Studio Owners Deserve
We know the burnout, the late nights, the pressure to do it all. That’s why we created DSOA—to help you lead your studio with less stress, more systems, and way more support.
what we do

The Inner Circle is a mastermind for studio owners ready to scale with strategy, systems, and the support of a mentor and community—so you can grow enrollment, boost revenue, and build a studio that runs without running you into the ground.
Studio Growth pathways
Studio Growth Pathways gives studio owners a clear way forward—one milestone, one system at a time. Designed by DSOA, this self-guided training series helps you grow with confidence and intention, beginning with Finance 101.

You Love Your Studio. Love the Rest of It Too.
You’re passionate, resilient, and wildly committed to your students. But behind the curtain? You might be feeling tired, stuck, or like you’re doing it all alone. If you’re craving systems, support, a paycheck, and space to breathe—we’re here for you. Whether you’re brand-new or decades in, if you’re ready to step into the role of CEO (without losing the heart), you’ve found your people.
The Systems, Support, and Community You’ve Been Wishing For
We turn chaos into clarity. DSOA gives you the step-by-step tools, coaching, and community to help you fill your classes, manage your team, pay yourself, and finally take a weekend off without your phone glued to your hand. From plug-and-play preschool programs to deep-dive mastermind coaching, everything we do is designed to get you out of survival mode and into a place where you’re thriving—as a leader, a business owner, and a human.
Studio Owners Helping Studio Owners Thrive
We know what it’s like to be the first one in and the last one out—to juggle teaching, staffing, bookkeeping, and somehow keep smiling for the parents. At DSOA, we’re not some outsider consultant. We’re studio people. We've lived the overwhelm, the isolation, the “I just need a minute” between back-to-back classes. And we’ve found a better way. We’re here to lift you up, give you real support, and help you build the kind of studio—and life—you actually want.
