Sha’Ran Studios

Sha'Ran Studios (formerly Dance~by Sha'Ran) is a community-centered dance and wellness studio with a mission to offer high-quality movement experiences at affordable prices.

But as the studio grew, Sha'Ran found herself drowning in the backend demands of running a business. She was overbooked, undercharging for her services, and operating without a clear strategy to support sustainable growth.

Her passion for dance—the reason she started the studio in the first place—was being overshadowed by administrative chaos. She was managing over 10 contractors and 65+ families, all while trying to teach classes and be present in the studio.

What once felt joyful began to feel heavy. She knew something needed to change.

"I was doing everything manually. I didn't have systems. I was constantly putting out fires instead of actually running my business." — Sha'Ran

Sha'Ran joined Back Pocket Ops with a custom scope focused on both marketing operations and business strategy. Together, we:

✓ Built a brand new website — Created a clear, professional site that communicated the studio's offerings, mission, and class schedule in a way that was easy for families to navigate.

✓ Refined pricing strategy — Restructured her pricing to reflect her value and expertise while remaining accessible to her community. She stopped undercharging and started honoring her worth.

✓ Expanded the studio's offer suite — Developed additional revenue streams and class offerings to support sustainable growth beyond just drop-in classes.

✓ Established strategic partnerships — Connected Sha'Ran with aligned partners and collaborators to strengthen the business and expand reach.

✓ Implemented backend student management systems — Set up systems for class scheduling, family communication, contractor coordination, and studio operations so Sha'Ran could focus on teaching instead of admin work.

This wasn't just about building systems. It was about giving Sha'Ran her joy back.

Operational clarity:

• Now has working systems to manage 10+ contractors and 65+ families

• Student management and communication run smoothly

• Can focus on teaching and being present in the studio (not stuck in admin hell)

• Still accessible to her community

• Sustainable for the long-term health of the business

Business growth:

• Strategic partnerships in place

Personal transformation:

• Has the structure to support both her team and her community

"I HAVE SYSTEMS! Because of these systems, I have been able to keep great communication with over 10 contractors while also communicating and organizing with over 65 families. On top of that, I have price points that align with my worth, but also cater to my clientele." — Sha'Ran

"[Riz] is knowledgeable and educated in her craft. She stays on it, making sure my small business is creating content that matters and provides value to my customers." — Sha'Ran

Sha'Ran's story is a reminder that growth without systems leads to burnout. She was serving more people than ever but losing herself in the process.

The transformation wasn't about working harder or doing more. It was about building the infrastructure to support the business she was already running—so she could lead with clarity instead of chaos.
