​There is SO MUCH that I have loved about this opportunity! One of the best aspects of Bella Ballerina is that things come together SO quickly! Whether it is Summer Camps, Recitals or weekly classes everything you need is right there for you! It's so well thought out and detailed you just have to implement it and you're off and running! What I truly believe is the sweet spot, what Natalie and her team have captured that is so special, is the combination of this unique program that specializes in young children, the most profitable age group of dance studios, with the knowledge and support to running a successful business!

​I’ve always wanted to open a dance studio and the Bella Ballerina franchise has really
helped me pursue my dream!  I had the dance background but not the business
background, so it was exactly what I needed!  Bella Ballerina has really paved the way
for me by providing all of the tools necessary to not only open a successful dance studio, but a smart business with an already proven marketing strategy, pricing structure, curriculum and level division, teacher training, resources, management tools, and much, much more!

Dance was always my passion, but I never realized how much I didn't know until I started down the road of opening my own studio.  Once I found the Bella Ballerina program, everything just fell into place - I knew exactly what to do and how because it was all there waiting for me.  It's been amazing  from start to finish!
