Opening a yoga studio: is it worth it?
Yoga is one of the activities in greater expansion of the momentWe are talking about a number of practitioners of 200 million in the world and 2.5 million in Italy, constantly growing.
In fact, with the frenzy of modern life, yoga has become one of the favorite gymnastic activities among Italians too.
We can say, therefore, that opening a yoga center could be a An excellent investment for those who own the securities... but also for those who don't.
Entrepreneurs know that you don't have to be an expert to invest in a profitable market. You just need to hire someone who is!
For this reason, we can say that the yoga business is aimed at two types of owners:
- i professionals in the sector – yoga teachers – who wish to create their own school in a unique and innovative space;
- The entrepreneurs who want to make a low-cost investment but certainly a return, making use of partners, collaborators or employees with experience in the sector.
If opening a yoga center is already a great investment in itself, doing so inside a geodesic dome will make your center stand out from all the others.
But let's proceed in order: how do you open a yoga center?
Opening a yoga center: VAT number or association?
There are generally two ways to start your own yoga business: opening a VAT number as professionals or the foundation of an amateur sports associationThe main difference is usually in the approach and earnings prospects.
Opening a VAT number allows us to establish what is effectively a a profit-making economic activityWe'll have no problem selling our services...even at rather high prices! We could create a luxury yoga center, offering individual or small group sessions and offering all kinds of additional services (holistic treatments, massages, meditation supplies, etc.). In short, we could manage our center, legally compliant, however we choose.
As regards instead theopening an associationThings are changing. Since yoga is a form of health-related exercise recognized by CONI (Italian National Olympic Committee), we would have no problem starting an amateur sports association. The fact is that in this case:
- we would need an association statute;
- we would need three founding members.
The situation is therefore becoming more complex, even with regard to the sale of services. In fact, the associations, cannot carry out direct commercial activities but "only" self-finance through membership fees paid by members.
In the case of sale of services, it will be It is still necessary to open a VAT number, finding itself having to manage two different legal forms.
Certainly, if we have decided to found our center together with some colleagues, the associative form could be the one with the least initial risk for starting the business.
If we are teachers who want to make the most of our skills, it might be more convenient to consider the freelance option.
However, we refer you here to your competent lawyer and accountant.
So, how much does it cost to open a yoga studio? It depends.
The costs of opening the center
Open a yoga center that can accommodate 10 people requires a minimum of 40-50 mXNUMX. In addition to the space required for changing rooms and bathrooms. Based on this information, we can understand how prices can vary greatly depending on the city where the building and its characteristics are searched for.
We should then take into account the cost of the floor mats – which is always better to provide good quality, washable and long-lasting – and the various Accessories for the practice that each teacher decides to make available to their students.
Un minimum of €60-70 thousand of investment, for the first year of opening, also considering marketing activities and the fixed costs of lawyers and accountants, is what you need to take into account.
Ma the geodesic dome can significantly save us money, differentiating our center from that of our competitors and also allowing us to raise prices.
The geodesic dome for yoga
The great advantage of the geodesic yoga dome is the ability to immerse the center and its students in nature, while remaining indoors!
Having available a piece of land, even if not buildable, it will be possible to install a crystal-type geodesic dome – transparent – and give their athletes the opportunity to stay in touch with the natural world while practicing. Whether it's a sunny day, a session at dawn, dusk, or under the stars. parquet of the geodesic dome – another recommended element for yoga centers – it will be pleasant to practice at any time of the day.
And the costs? Much lower. compared to renting a room in many Italian cities. And absolutely unparalleled due to the uniqueness of the location.
And the changing rooms? With the exclusive domes with AmarantoIdea connection It will be possible to create two geodesic domes of different sizes and with different coverings – one transparent and one white – to connect the main room to the one dedicated to the changing rooms.
