Dance studio management software.
Floorwork is all-in-one dance studio management software: a bespoke website, inline booking, payments, a student CRM, scheduling, instructor payroll, and email, for $199 per month per studio.
What dance studio management software is, and what dance studios need
Dance studio management software is the system a studio uses to run its day-to-day operations: publishing a class schedule, taking bookings and payments, tracking who is enrolled, paying instructors, and staying in touch with families. Instead of stitching together a website builder, a separate booking widget, a spreadsheet of students, and a payment processor, one platform holds the whole operation so the schedule, the roster, and the money all stay in sync.
Most general-purpose booking tools were built for gyms, salons, or appointment businesses and then stretched to fit a studio. Dance has its own shape. A platform built for the category understands that students progress through levels, that a family may enroll three children at once, that tuition recurs by term, and that the year builds toward a recital. Floorwork is built around that shape rather than retrofitted to it.
What dance studios specifically need
- Recitals and seasons
- The studio year is structured. Software for dance has to handle term-based enrollment, recital tickets, and the run-up to a show, not just one-off appointment slots.
- Class packs and prepaid credits
- Drop-in dancers buy packs of classes and spend them down over time. The system tracks remaining credits and expiry, so the front desk does not have to.
- Recurring tuition
- Ongoing programs bill on a schedule rather than per visit. Tuition that recurs by month or term keeps revenue predictable and removes manual invoicing.
- Attendance and levels
- Instructors mark who showed up, and students move through levels as they progress. Both feed the roster so placement and history stay accurate.
- Multi-location studios
- Studios that grow into a second or third location need one dashboard across all of them, with staff, schedules, and payouts scoped per location.
A capabilities overview
Floorwork covers the whole operation in one platform. Each area has a deeper page if you want the detail.
- Booking and payments
- Inline booking on your own site, class packs and prepaid credits, recurring tuition, and Stripe Connect payments where the studio is the merchant of record on the buyer card statement.
- Running the studio
- Class and staff scheduling, a student CRM with export, attendance, instructor payroll and payout splits, email segments, and a multi-location dashboard.
- Your website
- A bespoke, deeply themed website on your own domain with blog, events, and pages, so students never leave your brand to browse, sign in, or check out.
Built for dance, not gyms
Gym and salon software assumes a member books a recurring slot or an appointment and pays for it. That model misses almost everything a studio cares about. There is no clean way to express a level a dancer must reach, a class pack that draws down over a season, a sibling enrolled under a guardian, or a recital the whole year leads up to. Studios end up bending their operations to fit the tool.
Floorwork starts from the studio. Programs run by term with recurring tuition. Families enroll dependents under a guardian. Packs and credits are first-class, not a coupon hack. The booking experience is inline page content on your own domain, never a generic modal wizard that ships students off to a third-party portal. The result reads as your studio, because the software was shaped around how a studio actually works rather than how a gym does.
How studios get started
Getting started is a short, hands-on onboarding rather than a self-serve signup form. You bring your brand, your schedule, and your pricing; the site is built, booking is wired in, payments are connected, and checkout is tested end to end before a single student ever sees it.
Pricing
Floorwork is $199 per month per studio, with each additional location at $49 per month. That covers the website, booking, payments, the student CRM, scheduling, instructor payroll, and email in one plan, plus ongoing support and site changes after launch. There is no separate booking-widget fee and no per-seat charge for staff.
