InJoy Studio Ownership

On today's episode of the podcast we have multiple studio owner, Jane Gotch! Jane is the owner of GYROTONIC® Kansas City Center in Kansas City, MO and Resilient Body GYROTONIC® in Toronto, Canada. Our FIRST studio owner two have 2 studios in two different countries! WOOT! We do get to that for sure in today's episode, but the bulk of today's interview centered around Jane's use of Somatic Experiencing® in working with clients dealing with trauma.

As movement teachers it is important to remember that we aren't just teaching bones, muscles, and tendons...we are teaching humans! Humans who carry painful past experiences in their bodies. If you are a brand new teacher just starting out or a seasoned professional you won't wanna miss the information Jane has to share with us today!

Most of us get into studio ownership because we love the work we teach and we want to help others. However, once we open our doors it can feel like a runaway train! Before you know it you find yourself in a place you never intended to go. That is why I am so glad Delia cam on the podcast today to discuss her journey and why downsizing was the best decision for her and her studio. If you find yourself in a place where you can't remember your why I encourage you to listen to today's episode! You won't wanna miss it!

We have our first yoga studio owner on the podcast today! I am so excited to have Ali share her journey with us about how she went from yoga student, to yoga teacher, to yoga studio manager, to now co-owner of the Wilmington Yoga Center.

On today's episode of the podcast we are diving deep into what it really means to work as an independent contractor with the lovely Jamila! When we get certified to teach movement we aren't schooled in what that will actually look like when we enter the work force. The conversations around employee status vs. independent contractors are critically important and I am so glad Jamila came on today to share her experience.

In this episode you will learn how Jamila embraces the "IC" life! You will walk away with practical tips and strategies on how to make your teaching business work for you AND the studios you teach in. Lots of GOLD in this one today!

Welcome back to season 3!! We opening up this season with a story that I think many of our listeners will relate to...the home studio!

Kim's entrepreneurial journey is similar to many boutique fitness studio owners out there. She had the bustling studio, the recession forced a down-sizing, then a job relocation had her in a brand new town starting completely over. Throw on top of that everything had to be put on hold while she walked with her son through the recovery of a traumatic accident.

I hope you'll take a listen and feel encouraged by Kim's story of perseverance! And remember, your home studio IS a real studio. :)

Love,

Please welcome to the podcast today Lauren Childs owner of Ebb and Flow Movement Studio in Charlotte, NC!

Lauren got real with us today and on the pod and I couldn't be happier with the way this episode turned out. Her story I am sure is very similar to many of us out there. She started off as a teacher doing the hustle to make ends meet. She then relocated and had to start all over. And then, while right in the beginning phases of her opening her dream studio - tragedy struck.

I hope you will take a listen and feel encouraged by Lauren's story of perseverance and hope. Love, Emily
