Key Findings
The 2023 Jackrabbit Dance Benchmark Report was compiled using four consecutive years of data, analyzing over 4,000 dance studios that run their businesses on Jackrabbit’s cloud-based dance studio management software. Analyzing this data in aggregate provides extensive operational insights. While Jackrabbit never shares client data without permission, it does share anonymized trend data that can serve as benchmarks for the industries it serves.
