Ask Me Anything?

"The Community Yoga Studios that grow every fall aren't the ones with the flashiest launch graphic — they're the ones who did the unglamorous looking-backward work in August, so September wasn't a guess."

Everybody treats fall like the Super Bowl of the Community Yoga Studio year, and most owners respond by doing what they did last year, just a little louder. In this solo episode, I walk through the seven things I have every Community Yoga Studio client assess before we build a fall plan — backed by real 2026 industry benchmark data, so you've got actual numbers to check yourself against, not just a gut feeling.

In this episode:

• The numbers every Community Yoga Studio owner should pull before planning fall — and the benchmark for a healthy retention rate
• The 90-day cliff: the window where roughly half of new clients are at risk, and why it matters more than new sign-ups
• Why your fall schedule needs to match the team you actually have, not the one you wish you had
• The healthy payroll-to-revenue range for a Community Yoga Studio, and where it tips into a real problem
• Why referred members outperform every other acquisition channel — and how to build that into your fall plan
• Free tools I hand you directly in this episode: a schedule template, a marketing/event guide, a retention planner, and my 2026 Studio Planner

"Belonging isn't just a nice value to have — it's measurably your cheapest and most effective growth channel for a Community Yoga Studio."
