Any advice on how to run my first class in a new dojo I’m opening next month?

Beginning in May, I’m going to be opening up a new dojo in my very small town and I’m currently in the process of trying to garner interest in the area and get people to join and I’m looking for advice here on how to operate that first class where everybody will be new to the place and new to me.

Ideally, I would run each person through a solo lesson to ask them their goals and how I can help them achieve it or not, and give them a breakdown of how classes are structured and all that and then introduce them to the group class, but because this is a whole new endeavor, I don’t know how I can do that and everyone will most likely be at that very first opening day and to say I’m nervous about it is an understatement.
