Make Dance Fun
And So It Begins...The NEW Rhythm!
Welcome back to Make Dance Fun! In episode 81, we’re diving into something BIG: our brand-new dance studio space!
Now that nationals are behind us, we’re shifting focus to prepping for the upcoming season—and at the top of our list is building out our brand-new studio!
This week, we’re sharing more about the journey that’s been 32 years in the making. We’re reflecting on where we started (hello, one-studio-one-bathroom days!) and how we’ve intentionally grown—saving, scaling, and setting goals every step of the way.
Here’s a peek at what we cover in this episode:
The New Studio Journey
- Initial plans began in 2020—just as we were navigating COVID
- Explored staying in our current space vs. finding something new
- 2023–24: started working with a broker and project manager to explore every option: renovating, buying, building, even shopping centers!
- May 2024: shifted to looking at lease options
- June 2024: toured what would become the space
- Hired an architect (after interviewing several!) and finalized the design vision
- Signed the lease in February 2025 and started the permitting and demo process
- Spoiler: lots of fun planning… and lots of not-so-fun budgeting
Our Must-Haves (aka solutions to our current pain points!)
- Parking! (finally)
- Storage, including a loading dock and lift
- Better layout for functionality—hello outlets and delivery zones!
- 9 total dance studios (including 4 big ones!)
- Better bathrooms, family-friendly options, and dedicated changing rooms (that won’t double as closets!)
- Dedicated costume/craft space + staff lounge + conference room
- Senior Edge hangout space upstairs
The FUN Stuff We’re Dreaming Up
- Eye-catching entrance and front desk (still designing this!)
- Merch area + podcast room + RHYTHM wall
- Gorgeous staircase that leads to an upstairs overlook
- A colorful, sparkly, personality-packed space that feels like us
This is truly going to be the most RHYTHM-y space we’ve ever created, and we cannot wait to bring it to life! There’s still a long road ahead, but we’ll keep you posted along the way—with lots more behind-the-scenes updates to come in future episodes.
Thanks for tuning in—and if you're dreaming of a new space for your studio someday, we hope our journey inspires you!
