That’s right, I moved the furniture around, bought some mats, and turned my living room and dining room into a gym. Amazingly, I had 15 girls coming to my house every week for hour-long tumbling classes. I was excited about the growth and even had the opportunity to hire (yes, Hire and Pay) 2 additional coaches so all the students could get individual attention.”
