Side by Side

Old Way vs. Your New Pro Shop Way

Same three problems. Two very different answers.

Old Way

$2K to $5K

Bulk-Order Gamble

Inventory from past orders still in your office
XS, S, XL sit in the bin for months
Pieces go missing. You give the rest away

Your Pro Shop

$0 UPFRONT

No Inventory Ever

Member orders one, we print one
Zero cash tied up. Zero boxes to store
Profit hits your dashboard, not a bin

Old Way

3 WEEKS

To Reorder Anything

24, 36 or 48-piece minimums per color
Charged per color, per placement, per design
Sold out of sizes or colors dancers want
Can't say yes without $2K + 3 weeks

Your Pro Shop

~1 WEEK

Door to Door

No minimums. Order 1 or 100, same price
Unlimited colors, designs, placements
Dancers pick size and color at checkout
USA printed and shipped free to their door

Old Way

2 WASHES

Until It's Cardboard

Print cracks, shirt stiffens, color fades
Dancers stop wearing it
You and your instructors reach for other brands

Your Pro Shop

50+ WASHES

Still Soft

Premium blanks: Bella+Canvas, Champion, Sport-Tek
Soft on day 1, soft after 50 washes
Coaches reach for the studio hoodie, not the other brand

Why It Works

Curated for your dancers and families. Zero guesswork.

We pick the season's best. You focus on what you do best.

Studio Director Reviews

Hear from studio directors and crew captains running this today.

Quality, sizing, time. The three things every owner wants to know about, answered by the studioes already running their apparel through us.

Mike R.

Studio Director · 75 dancers

Q: DO STUDIO TEES HOLD UP TO DAILY CLASS WEAR?

"Hip hop dancers live in their class outfits. Cropped sweatshirts in the studio, tees at the bus stop, joggers at the grocery store. Bella+Canvas blanks and triblends hold the studio logo through every wash. Dancers wear them daily. Free studio recruiting at every school in the area."

Jenna T.

Crew Captain · 18 dancers

Q: WHAT IF A NEW STUDENT NEEDS A KIDS HIP HOP SIZE OR PLUS-SIZE FIT?

"Kids hip hop classes, teen comp team, womens cropped fits, plus-size adult dancers. Sizes from toddler to adult 3XL. Every dancer picks their own size at checkout. No more I-only-have-a-medium-cropped-hoodie apology when a new student signs up mid-season."

Ryan K.

Comp Coach · 45 dancers

Q: I AM TEACHING NINE CLASSES A WEEK. WHO RUNS THE MERCH?

"Teaching nine classes a week, choreographing comp routines, running the studio business. No time to write product descriptions. Done-For-You plan ran our comp team gear, recital season collection, dance mom shirts, studio anniversary drop. Sold out twice. Now I send one studio logo a month and the shop runs itself."

Studio Director & Crew Captain Questions

The questions we get asked most

Can I put our studio name, crew art and dancer names on custom hip hop dance apparel?+

Yes. Every tee, tank, cropped hoodie, joggers, sweatpants and embroidered hat supports your studio logo, crew art, competition team names, dancer names and "established" year on the front, back, sleeve or chest. Unlimited design elements on one side, no per-color fee. Custom hip hop dance apparel for the studio, the comp team and the dance moms, all on the same shop URL.

Do you make competition costumes, sequin pieces or specialty dance wear (jazz pants, ballet flats)?+

No. Competition costumes with sequins, hand-cut pieces, leotards and specialty dance wear (jazz pants, ballet flats, dance shoes) come from costume houses like Just for Kix. What we do best: studio merch and warmup apparel for the brand. Hip hop dance class outfits, hip hop dance t-shirts, cropped sweatshirts, joggers, sweatpants, racerback tanks, embroidered hats. The everyday dance studio merch that builds your brand outside competition season.

Can I sell warmup gear, studio merch and dance mom shirts in one shop?+

Yes. Your shop is one branded studio URL, organized into sections: Dancers, Comp Team, Crew, Hip Hop Kids, Adults, Dance Moms, Instructors, Recital. Drop a fresh design for a comp weekend, recital season, the studio anniversary, a kru anniversary. Dancers and dance moms pre-order, you collect profit, no leftover comp tees stacked in the studio office.

Will cropped sweatshirts, tees and joggers hold up to daily class wear and weekly washes?+

Yes. Bella+Canvas premium triblends, Next Level racerback tanks, Bella+Canvas cropped sweatshirts, Independent Trading Co. joggers and sweatpants. Real athleisure, not the stiff cotton tee from the local print shop. Dancers wear them to class, to the grocery store, and on rest days. Pull a few samples from your dashboard at base price first and feel the difference.

Do you have apparel for kids hip hop dance, teens, plus-size and adult company dancers?+

Yes. Sizes run from toddler and youth all the way through adult 3XL, plus size included on most blanks. Hip hop dance outfits for kids, teen comp pieces, womens cropped fits, mens unisex tees and adult-company gear. Build Kids Hip Hop, Teen Comp, Womens, Adults and Dance Moms collections in the same studio shop.

We already use Custom Ink or Just for Kix for studio merch. Why switch?+

Three reasons most studios switch within a month. Shipping: theirs charges $8 to $10 per order, hidden. Ours is free, every order. Fees: theirs charges per color, per placement, per design. Ours is one flat base price, unlimited colors. Permanence: theirs is comp-season ordering. Ours is a permanent dance studio store at your URL, ready for the next comp, recital, masterclass or anniversary drop.

Do I pay anything when a dancer orders? What about instructor and crew captain gear?+

Zero cost when a dancer or dance mom orders. They pay the retail price you set. Your $8 to $16 profit lands directly in your dashboard. The rest covers our base price for printing, packing, and free USA shipping. For instructor and crew captain gear, build a Staff section and self-order cropped hoodies, joggers and embroidered hats at base price.
