Quotes:

"If you do not have a path for people to grow forward, then whenever teaching becomes a burden or a studio is willing to pay more, they are probably just going to dip out." [Nick, 6:38]

"[With[ the smaller staff you're going to want those W-2s. If you have them as independent contractors but you only have four or five instructors, that sounds scary as hell to me." [Megan, 8:24]

"You can have the same studio, the same mission, vision, values, same class formats, everything, if you are in a different part of town, it is just going to be different people, it's going to be a different culture." [Nick, 17:05]
