About Twinkle Star Dance Academy

- Evidence-based curriculum - IRB-approved collaboration with the University of Pennsylvania (MAPP) - Proven, scalable operations: multiple revenue streams (tuition, recitals, camps, merchandise) - Robust launch and ongoing support: centralized marketing, studio tech, website listing and lead routing, continual advisory support.

Twinkle Star Dance Academy offers a turnkey children’s dance studio franchise focused on early childhood through early high school. The model delivers structured, age-appropriate curriculum, consistent class formats, and recital-driven programming that convert trial students into long-term enrollments. Revenue comes from monthly tuition, registration, recitals, camps, workshops, dancewear, costumes/merchandise, and special events. TSDA builds community through predictable schedules, family-friendly hours, and repeat participation, supported by brand assets, curriculum, and centralized marketing systems for fast, consistent launches. What sets TSDA apart is our evidence-informed approach to well-being. In collaboration with the University of Pennsylvania and IRB-approved research, we are refining a curriculum that targets engagement, positive affect, and self-regulation; key factors associated with reduced anxiety and healthier coping in youth. Findings inform lesson design, class pacing, and parent communication, so franchisees deliver a program grounded in data. The franchise runs with a lean team (owner or manager, light admin, and trained part-time instructors) backed by territory protections, site-selection guidance, studio technology, website, lead routing, and a streamlined sales process supporting enrollment and retention.

Hudson Valley Swim

$94K - $122K

Hudson Valley Swim is offering a franchising opportunity that doesn’t require any aquatics experience as we are looking for qualified business owners with a desire to help their community. We are considering an emerging brand, however, we spent most of our time initially building out infrastructure that has fully prepared us for expansion. We are on pace to open 10-15 additional units this year. Utilizing the pool rental model, we are able to keep initial costs low and have our owners operational within 3 months after closing. Our owners now are breaking even on operational expenses BEFORE ever operating. Our first franchisee has closed on his second territory after being operational for 7 months and our second franchisee has reserved a facility and looks to close on their second territory this year as well. Hudson Valley Swim helps to identify and negotiate the rental terms (if not already pre-negotiated) before a territory is awarded. We also assist in the hiring process for lead swim instructors. This includes identifying instructors and co-interviewing initially. Our owners have access to utilize our master agreement with LA Fitness and Esporta Fitness facilities. In good conscious, we will not award a territory unless we can find our candidates a place to operate out of. Franchisees will be granted exclusivity over a general population of approximately 40,000 children aged 14 and under. We offer swimming lessons for all ages and skill levels, from infant to adult and from beginner to expert. Students’ progress through our program as they become proficient in the skills carefully laid out for each class level. Class sizes are small, and our instructors are all senior level teachers of swimming, which differentiates our program and provides an exceptional learning experience to our students. We pride ourselves on our customer service and our flexibility towards the needs of our customers. We also provide ongoing support for our franchise business owners.
