Our Premier Dance Costume Accelerator begins August 10th. Only 25 spots available.
By specializing in a niche most sewists overlook.
Specializing in dance costumes transformed my sewing business and allowed me to grow from a small sewing space in my apartment into a full professional studio.
The dance costume niche changed my life — and now I'm teaching experienced sewists how to enter the industry with a clear plan.
A snapshot from my studio books. Customer names hidden for privacy.
What my studio made in my first full year, going from 3 to 14 recurring studio clients.
What I earned in a single week of sewing, on an order with under $700 in material cost.
Growth in just 2 weeks. Under 600 followers, no funnel, no crazy ad spend.
This is what happened when I applied a pricing and outreach system most sewists never learn. You're getting that same system.
Explore the construction techniques, design details, finishing methods and craftsmanship behind premium competition costumes that have sold for up to US$5,000.
You'll learn how these costumes are designed and constructed — and how to apply the same professional techniques to your own work.
Repeat Clients. Recurring Orders. A Clearer Path to Growth.
Unlike one-off custom clothing, a single dance studio may need costumes for solos, duets, trios and large groups every competition season.
When you build strong studio relationships, you are no longer starting from zero with every order. One client relationship can lead to multiple costumes, repeat seasons and long-term business.
Build relationships that can return every competition season.
One studio may place orders for several routines, groups and dancers.
Position yourself in a focused niche instead of competing with every general custom clothing business.
10 practical modules that take you from experienced sewist to confident dance costume business owner — plus the pattern library, business toolkit and software to run it.
A look inside the classroom — all 10 modules, ready when you enroll.
Learn how the dance industry works, how studios operate, and why this niche presents such a unique business opportunity for experienced sewists.
Explore the different dance genres, costume styles, and design principles behind each one.
Set up your business, work with studio clients, create a professional client experience, and build a solid business foundation.
Stop guessing your prices. Learn how to confidently cost, quote, and price your work for profitability using proven systems and Costumer.
Learn how to find dance studios, build relationships, run successful consultations, and cultivate long-term repeat clients.
Master the fabrics, notions, embellishments, supplier relationships, and material estimation needed for professional dance costumes.
Learn how to use the included pattern blocks and understand when and how to use each foundation.
Work alongside me as I design and construct real costumes for studio clients throughout the season. You'll see the full process unfold in real time — from design decisions and pattern modifications to fabric selection, construction, fittings, embellishment, problem-solving and final delivery.
Take your costumes to the next level with professional techniques used in competition costumes.
Learn how to manage larger costume orders, work efficiently with dance studios, and build a profitable, sustainable business.
The exact construction techniques, pattern blocks and business systems you need.
Watch every stitch, every placement, every finishing detail on real competition costumes.
You'll learn exactly how to design, cost and deliver competition-grade costumes — the kind that get a studio calling you back every season, not just once.
You don't need a full studio to start — just solid sewing foundations and the right machines.
Comfortable using a sewing machine and reading patterns. Experience with spandex, mesh and tulle is an asset, but not required.
A domestic or industrial sewing machine with zigzag capability. Either works — I'll show you how to get professional results on what you own.
A domestic or industrial serger is essential for clean, stretch-ready seams and professional finishes on dance costumes.

Get your money back from your first few dance costumes.
Experienced sewists ready to turn their skills into a real business. You don't need any dance background — I teach you the industry from the ground up.
No. The program is built around equipment most experienced sewists already own — a domestic or industrial machine with zigzag capability, and a serger. I'll tell you what's worth upgrading to as you grow.
The program is self-paced and designed to be completed in approximately 8–12 weeks. You can begin applying the pricing, portfolio and studio outreach lessons before completing every module.
No. You get the full curriculum, pattern library, pricing system, studio outreach templates and the Costumer app workflow — everything to actually run the business, not just sew the costumes.
Yes — most students start part-time. I sewed part-time while working a full-time corporate job before going all-in. The program is self-paced specifically so you can build this alongside your current income.
Yes. At checkout you may see flexible payment options through Klarna, Afterpay or Affirm, depending on your country and eligibility. The exact installment plan is determined by the payment provider based on your purchase amount and billing details, and usually appears on the final payment step after you enter your information.
You have 14 days from enrollment to work through the first modules. If you've given it a genuine shot and it's not for you, email us within that window for a full refund — no lengthy back-and-forth.
Every season, studios lock in their costume designer early. The sewists who start now are the ones booking clients before the next wave even begins.
