JOIN NOW!Susan's Story..
I wasn’t born with a silver spoon in my mouth. I was just a girl from the Bronx NY who loved dance and loved teaching.
I started teaching my own classes in my parents' basement at the age of 18. I was never more happy than when I was teaching dance. At 19 yrs old I rented a Knights of Columbus Hall 3 days a week while getting my degree in dance. I remember my boyfriend at the time - who is my husband now, carrying in my Verifone record player - which weighed a ton, my box of records, and my ballet barre every day I taught there.
I had a cash box on a small table to take payments and my notebook with the list of kids in each class. I had very humble beginnings as a studio owner.
My first year I had 77 students. In my second year I had 203 students and outgrew my space. The third year I decided to get my own storefront and grew to a whopping 450 students. By the time the fourth year came, I had 900 students and was drowning in my own success.
Have you ever felt like doing everything was overwhelming?
Does this sound like you?
I loved what I was doing but was exhausted from: teaching, writing lesson plans, choreographing, tracking payments, communicating with parents when there was no email, social media, or cell phones, planning recitals, doing the financial end of the business, writing copy for marketing and advertising, developing new programs for my studio - well you know what I mean.
- I was the chief cook and bottle washer.
- I missed having a life, seeing my family and friends, or staying awake when I did see them.
I needed to take control of my company instead of it controlling me...
And that’s just what I did!
I put systems in place, learned to hire and train amazing people & got my life back!
I continued to grow adding a second, third and fourth studio location. With thousands of students, I quickly grew to a multimillion-dollar business. I became the "Go To" Studio. Let's build your vision of a successful studio.
You are not alone - Let's do this together!
A few things we often hear....
I don't have enough MONEY for this...
I don't have any TIME to do this..
I just don't have the EXPERIENCE for this...
TESTIMONIALS
DAVID KIEFFER - Owner of The Dance Connection
"I have been very fortunate to work with Susan Mendogni. Before being a studio owner, Susan was my boss at my very first dance teacher job. How lucky I was to have worked for her at her dance studio; to discover the magic, and profit, that she creates in her business. Since I opened my own studio several years ago, Susan has been an amazing mentor and colleague. She’s always been a wise and encouraging presence. Few people know the studio industry as well as Susan. From the smallest detail one might include in an office processes to big picture strategy; there’s not an element of this industry that Susan has not mastered. Susan is a sharp business person with a big heart. Proof that a dance studio owner can be hugely successful and also create a meaningful business that touches the lives of thousands."
EVIE MCPHERSON - Owner of Encore Dance Academy
"Wow! I don’t think I can ever fully express how much Susan and the DANCEO has meant to me during this new and ever evolving change that all of us have gone through these last four months. Susan would give her time and knowledge to all of us dance teachers struggling to navigate these uncharted waters of Covid-19. On a few separate occasions Susan would reach out and check in just to make sure I was doing ok, answer questions, lift me up and even send detailed format letters to guide me. Seeing how she worded things in such an amazing, bright and happy way really helped to focus me on the positives that can help all of our dancers overcome these new normals they are facing. I’m forever grateful for her love, support and knowledge! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ THANK YOU for all the help and guidance!"

Can’t Stop Smiling….!
"I joined the Momentum Membership wondering if I would get anything out of it. Well I am here to say - I love this group - I can’t stop smiling! For the first time I started paying myself - all because I learned how to look at my numbers so I can make decisions that save me money. Keep teaching because I am ready to keep learning."
