Franchise Summary

Description
The franchised business being offered is Tutu School, which offers dance and movement instruction to children, with an emphasis on ballet.
Company Background
Tutu School Franchises, LLC franchises the Tutu School system of dance and movement programs for children. We are the exclusive distributors of the Tutu Dance Party CD (retail $19.95).
Franchise Opportunity
The world is changing and schools are failing to teach children the skills they need for success in life. Children today spend hours each day on electronic devices, but never learn the social or physical skills that will help them succeed in life. Tutu School Franchises offer an innovative approach to early childhood education by combining dance and movement with academic learning. Our franchisees provide a safe, fun environment for children ages 6 weeks through 12 years old during school hours, at after-school programs, summer camps and birthday parties. We use our proprietary curriculum as well as popular books like "The Brainy Bunch" to give kids a head start academically while also helping them develop social and physical skills they need to be successful in life!

The franchisor is Tutu School Franchises LLC, an Illinois limited liability company. The brand began operating its first Tutu School in San Francisco in February 2008. Its principal business address is 3717 North Ravenswood Avenue, #237, Chicago, IL 60613.
