The blog for studio owners

The Unfurling

Growth happens one small turn at a time. Here’s where I write about building a studio that supports your life, and becoming more yourself along the way.

Grab your favorite beverage and stay a while.

Hi, I’m Cathy.

I’ve spent more than 30 years building businesses: a dance studio that grew to more than 900 students, photography businesses in two states, and years managing payroll and people in the corporate world before that.

Today I’m a certified life coach and studio business coach. I help dance, yoga, Pilates, martial arts, and creative studio owners build the business side with real strategy and the mindset to make it stick, so their studio supports their life instead of taking it over.
