Tutu School Franchising

So you want to own a Tutu school?

Brilliant idea! Who doesn’t want to combine success with adorableness, and meaningful work with some pretty frilly fun? But, we bet you’ve got questions.

What is Tutu School?

Tutu School is a collection of boutique-style ballet schools that cater specifically to children 6 months to 8 years-old. Our mission is simple: We believe that exposing children at the earliest possible age to creativity, movement, and classical music will only serve them well in whatever they choose to do with their lives, that dancing like swans and Sugar Plum Fairies not only exercises little bodies but also nurtures big imaginations, and that twirling should be a fundamental part of any childhood.

Pretty special, huh? Genevieve Weeks, founder and owner of Tutu School, is a former professional ballerina dedicated to creating a joyful, imaginative introduction to ballet for young children.

Why buy a franchise?

Let’s see if we can guess… You have an entrepreneurial spirit, but feel no desire to re-invent the wheel and start building a business model from scratch, right? Perfect! Purchasing a franchise business is ideal for individuals who want to be in business for themselves, but not by themselves. Becoming a franchisee balances independence with support, and compliments the freedom of ownership with the security of shared experience.

Why open a
Tutu School?

Owning your own Tutu School gives you the unique opportunity to pair a thoughtful mission with an exciting brand, all wrapped up in the sweetest of packages.

What does Tutu School look for in its owners?

A Tutu School owner needs to be energetic, motivated, and committed, and it doesn’t hurt if she appreciates things that sparkle. Certainly, she must play well with others, be responsible, balance fun with hard work, and understand the fundamental value of twirling in a child’s life.

I also love the freedom as a business owner, creating my own schedule, reaching out in my community, and building a fulfilling career. I have grown personally and professionally because of Tutu School, and I look forward to all that is yet to come with my Tutu School journey.”

“The day I stumbled upon Tutu School totally changed my life. I knew that my sales and marketing background, my previous experience in theater and performing, and my passion for motherhood made me well suited for the role of Tutu School owner. The Tutu School philosophy is so unique, yet so simple, and I wanted to be part of this incredible way of teaching dance to young children.”
