About Me
My name is Gabriela Equiz
I’m a Dance Studio owner who got hit by the pandemic just as many of you did.
Before being a professional dancer and Dance Studio owner , I had attended UCLA for my masters in engineering, and a Mexican university for my Electrical Engineering degree.
Back in early 2000 when I gave up my life as an engineer to pursue my dream of becoming a professional dancer, I swore I would continue to incorporate technology into my business. I remember back in 2008 , I started dreaming of building my own Online Dance Studio where my Franchises around the world would be able to take classes with me without having to hop on a plane and move to Mexico, [where my main studio was]. I started coding it 12 years ago , but I never really had the time to fully focus and catch on with the new softwares and technology trends. I was simply too busy traveling for my teaching engagements. But In march 2020, all my upcoming contracts got canceled and I was forced to move my instructors and all my classes to platforms like zoom and facebook groups. It was very soon that I found myself exhausted with all the admin work and the burdensome process of having to sell students into the idea of taking online classes, enrolling them and sending them a zoom link, making sure that they were satisfied with the video quality so they would want to sign up for the following month.. So I decided in May to once and for all build my own Online Platform where all the classes would be streamed on HD, stored and delivered on Demand to my Students. A place where I could issue my dreamed about certificates and exams to students all over the world.
A true dream come true. After 8 months I have gone through all the possible bugs and scenarios , and I can say with gratitude that now , I host over 700 members in my own online Studio , and as we are getting ready to slowly go back into offline classes, I am excited to incorporate this model into what will be my hybrid dance studio.
In July of 2020 I started my masters in Software Engineering in the same School I got my Engineering degree from. I am grateful for the opportunity to help Dance studio owners and Dance Instructors as myself , reach their business potential with technology solutions.
