Read features on five business, which ran in the 2024 Flower Mound-Highland Village-Argyle editions of Community Impact.

The list is not comprehensive.

Shine Fitness

Julie Costly and Angela Hughbanks met while working at a yoga studio in Flower Mound. When that business closed, they felt a need to fill the void.

“We had such a strong community," Costly said. “When it closed, we couldn’t imagine not having that community anymore, so I decided I was going to open a studio in Flower Mound.”


Costly and Hughbanks opened Shine Fitness in Parker Square in March 2023.

Following a 24-year dental hygienist career, Costly started teaching yoga in 2017 and managed a yoga studio for four years. Hughbanks has been teaching yoga since 2006.

In terms of dividing ownership responsibilities, Costly focuses on the business side while Hughbanks is the lead instructor and handles merchandising.

Currently, they are the only instructors at the studio, and they teach 14 classes apiece each week.S2S Functional Performance


Although Meredith Tittle’s mother was a physical therapist and owned her own practice, this front row seat into the profession didn’t initially propel Tittle to follow suit.

“I went to Baylor pre-med thinking that was the path I would take and thinking I didn’t want to do just what my mama does,” Tittle said. “But then in my junior year I realized I like the interaction with patients and the idea of getting to know someone three times a week versus a biannual office visit or seeing them under anesthesia for surgery.”

Tittle earned a doctorate in physical therapy and became an orthopedic clinical specialist. She is also a certified Pilates instructor.

After working at her mother’s practice for 18 months, Tittle launched Sole to Soul Professional Pilates Studio in Flower Mound in 2004. In 2009, to encompass the range of services offered, she changed the business name to S2S Functional Performance. In March 2023, she opened a second location in Frisco.Everybody’s Got a Project


Wielding decades of construction industry experience, Melinda Page, her daughter Danielle Page and family friend Stephanie Knibbs opened Everybody’s Got a Project in September 2023.

Located in Flower Mound, the home remodeling supply store also draws on Knibbs' human resource skill set, Melinda Page's merchandising experience, and Danielle Page's past work installing plumbing and lighting.

“That construction and real estate experience helped me a lot,” Danielle Page said. “I use it all the time to figure out the value you're putting into your house versus what you’ll get out of it in terms of resale value.”

While working as a contractor on other people’s projects, Danielle said she noticed the amount of time clients spent trying to find items for their projects.


“We found our clients had a really hard time finding everything they needed without going to 87 different places and taking 6 months to pick it out,” Danielle Page said. “We thought there needed to be a solution to that, so we decided to be that solution and that one-stop-shop.”Argyle TX Farmers Market

Emily Holt found a certain need in Argyle, so she and others put their heads together to produce the result: a farmers market.

In May, the Argyle TX Farmers Market opened behind Holt’s business, Argyle Party and Gift, which is located at 409 US 377 S. The market, which carries goods from Texas farmers and ranchers within a 100-mile radius, is open from 9 a.m. to noon the second Saturday of each month, said Holt, who serves as the market manager and advisory board head. The market will remain open until October and will be open April-October next year.

“There had been a lot of Facebook posts asking for a farmers market, and the challenge with Argyle is people don’t have a place to do things,” Holt said. “We don’t have a town square or any place [to gather]. That was the challenge of getting it going. I lease this place for the store, and there is a great backyard area, so I was like, ‘Hey, let’s do it.’”

Dance Vision


As the son of parents who were professional dancers, John Elsbury said he grew up dancing. He eventually opened a dance studio in London where his oldest son, Craig, started to dance when he was 6 years old. John’s wife, Olga also came from a dancing family—her parents ran a dance studio in Moscow.

“I used to go to Russia four or five times a year teaching competitive [dance] couples. Olga was fifth in Russia and 14th in the world. She came in for a lesson. I thought, ‘She’s far too good to compete, I’ll take her home with me,’” John said. “It didn’t work quite like that, but we met through dancing.”

John, Olga and Craig Elsbury opened the first franchise of Dance Vision in Plano in 2018 followed by a McKinney location in 2020, Flower Mound in 2022 and Frisco in 2024.
