Chantelle worked as a music teacher while running a performing arts camp for kids as a side business. Within few short years this successful business grew to 6 locations, 35 teachers and over 1,000 children. Chantelle Duffield certainly figured out how to run a successful performing arts studio.

When Chantelle got an opportunity to move overseas she decided to sell her business. However, she kept getting asked for advice from other studio owners (dance, singing, acting studios, etc). This is when Chantelle understood there was a huge demand for her expertise and she decided to start helping these people professionally, this is how Studio Expansion was born about 6 years ago.
