What your studio gets, from day one

Made for one to four rooms and an owner who still teaches.

  • Your schedule

    One calendar, no double-booked rooms

    Add your instructors, give each class a teacher and a room, and we check that two classes never land in the same room.

  • Your clients

    Booking without an app

    Clients book from your studio page in any browser, as a guest if they like. They pay by card, cash or bank transfer, and we take 0%.

  • Your space

    Rent out your quiet hours

    Let visiting teachers rent a room by the session or by the hour. You set the fee and who may book. We take no cut of the rent.

One roster, one schedule, no double-booked rooms

Invite your instructors as employees or renters, assign each session to the person teaching it, and hand sessions to someone else when an instructor leaves. MoveMentors checks your rooms so two classes never land in the same room at the same time.

  • Employee instructors claim open sessions on the classes you publish.
  • Remove an instructor and move their future sessions to the successor you choose.
  • Clients see the instructor teaching each session, not only the studio name.
  • Class payments go to the studio. You pay your instructors yourself, outside MoveMentors.

How to invite instructors to your studio

How clients book and pay

Clients book from your studio page in any browser. No app to install, no account needed. A card booking holds their spot for 30 minutes while they pay, then confirms. If they pay in cash, by bank transfer or another method you handle yourself, the booking confirms straight away.

  • Stripe Connect
  • In-person card
  • Bank transfer
  • PayPal
  • Venmo
  • Cash App
  • Zelle
  • Cash
  • Crypto (any network)
  • Custom method

Card payments land in your studio's Stripe account. Stripe takes its processing fee there, about 2.9% plus $0.30 per card payment in the US, and it varies by country. For every other method, clients see your instructions and you mark the booking paid. MoveMentors takes 0% on all of them.

Refunds follow the policy you pick for your classes

  • Flexible: full refund up to 24 hours before the class.
  • Moderate: full refund up to 48 hours before, then 50% back until 24 hours before.
  • Strict: full refund up to 7 days before, then 50% back until 24 hours before.

No policy gives a refund inside the last 24 hours. Retreats have their own policies.

How payments work on MoveMentorsHow refunds work for clients

Let visiting teachers fill your empty hours

Switch on rentals for a room, set a fee per session or per hour, and choose who can book it. Visiting teachers pay the fee through Stripe, the slot lands on your calendar, and MoveMentors takes no cut of the rent.

  • Invite only, an approval list, or open to any teacher who passes your minimum check.
  • Set that minimum check: a confirmed email, an uploaded certificate or the Stripe ID check.
  • Stripe collects the rental fee. Refunds follow your cancellation policy automatically.
  • Bookings for the visiting teacher's class go to them. The rental fee goes to you.

Let your instructors sell one-on-ones in your rooms

Turn on private booking for a room and your instructors can open their own hours and prices. Clients book a private session straight from the instructor's profile, and the room is never double-booked.

  • Switch private booking on room by room, with a time window if you want one.
  • Each instructor sets their own hours and prices. You don't manage their calendar.
  • The room stays protected: private bookings work around everything already on its schedule.
  • Sessions come in as pending and are paid outside MoveMentors. We take no commission.

How to turn on private booking for a room

Every studio tool, one by one

The day-to-day tools a small studio uses, in one dashboard.

  • Public studio profile

    Your logo, bio, locations, instructors and class schedule on one public page that search engines can find.

  • Direct bookings

    Clients book straight from your studio page and class pages. No middleman.

  • Scheduled sessions per week

    Add every group class you offer. Price each one separately, in any currency.

  • Classes that repeat

    Weekly, every two weeks, or your own pattern. Change the whole series or a single session.

  • More than one location

    Add every place you run classes. Each class shows the right one, with its map and address.

  • Get paid the way you like

    Take cards through Stripe, or cash, bank transfer, PayPal, Venmo and more. Whatever the method, the money goes straight to you. We take no cut.

  • Local and visitor rates

    Price each class in any currency. Add a rate for local residents, separate from the visitor rate.

  • Cancellation policies

    Flexible, moderate or strict, one policy for all your classes. Refunds follow it automatically.

  • Class add-ons

    Mat rental, towels, studio merch. Sell extras along with the class booking.

  • WhatsApp and text reminders

    Remind clients before class to cut no-shows, even the clients in their fifties and sixties who never check email. Each reminder goes out on WhatsApp first and falls back to a text automatically, with a button to view the booking. You pick which messages send. $0.10 each, from prepaid credit.

  • Sell your class recordings

    Upload a recording or a whole course, group your videos into a series, and set a price or make it free. Clients watch on any device from their MoveMentors account and pick up where they left off. You can also include videos in your membership, so subscribers watch at no extra cost. You keep 100% of every video sale. You only prepay a small credit for storage and streaming.

  • Tipping at checkout

    Clients can add a tip when they pay for a booking. The tip goes to the studio, with no platform cut. Free on every plan.

  • Waitlists for full classes

    When a class is full, clients join a waitlist. If a spot opens, the next person gets a pending spot that you confirm. Free on every plan.

  • Reviews

    Reviews come from clients who booked. Your average rating shows on your studio page.

  • Client roster

    Everyone who books shows up in one client list, with the sessions they've taken and what they've spent in total.

  • Earnings and expenses

    Earnings by month, by year and all-time. Log expenses against each class so your reports stay clean.

  • Pay-what-you-can pricing

    Offer sliding-scale or donation classes. Students choose what they pay, from a minimum you set, and the studio keeps 100%.

  • Family accounts

    Members register their kids and partner under one account and book the right person into each class. Made for studios that teach whole families.

  • Duplicate a class

    Copy any class in one step, with its prices, add-ons and settings, then add the new dates. Next term's schedule, rebuilt in minutes.

What MoveMentors does not do for studios

Worth knowing before you move your studio over.

  • Payroll. You pay your instructors yourself.
  • A point of sale for retail at the front desk. Add-ons are sold with a class booking.
  • A branded app. Clients book in the browser and can add MoveMentors to their home screen.
  • Class packs, memberships, promo codes, a booking widget for your website and client import. These are teacher tools today.

How MoveMentors compares with Mindbody for small studios

Questions studio owners ask us

How much does MoveMentors cost for a small studio?

You can start on the Free plan. Studio Pro is $49 a month and Studio Premium is $99, or $499 and $999 when billed yearly. There is no commission on bookings and no charge per instructor or per room. Stripe's fee applies to card payments.

Do you take a percentage of bookings?

No. MoveMentors takes 0% of every booking on every plan. Card payments go straight to your studio's Stripe account, where Stripe charges its processing fee, about 2.9% plus $0.30 per payment in the US. We earn from the paid plans and optional extras such as text reminders.

Do you charge per instructor or per room?

No. Each plan is one flat monthly price for the whole studio. There are no seat charges for instructors and no fees per room.

Do clients need an account or an app?

No. Clients book in any web browser, and they can book as a guest without creating an account. There is no app to download. Clients who book often can add MoveMentors to their phone's home screen.

Can clients pay cash or by bank transfer?

Yes. Turn on cash, bank transfer, PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, in-person card or your own method alongside card payments. Clients see your instructions when they book, the booking confirms straight away, and you mark it paid when the money arrives.

Can visiting teachers rent my studio?

Yes. Switch on rentals for a room and set a fee per session or per hour. Choose invite only, an approval list, or open booking for teachers who pass your minimum check. The teacher pays the fee through Stripe, and refunds follow your cancellation policy.

Can I pay my instructors through MoveMentors?

No. Payments for studio classes go to the studio's account, and you pay your instructors yourself, the way you do today. When a visiting teacher rents your room, bookings for their class go to them and the rental fee comes to you.

What happens if I cancel my plan?

Your paid plan runs until the end of the period you paid for, then the studio moves to the Free plan. Your studio page stays public, so clients never land on a broken booking page. Paid tools switch off.

What refund policy do clients get?

You pick one policy for all your classes. Flexible gives a full refund up to 24 hours before. Moderate gives a full refund up to 48 hours before, then 50% back until 24 hours before. Strict gives a full refund up to 7 days before, then 50% back until 24 hours before. No policy refunds inside the last 24 hours.

Can the studio send WhatsApp and text reminders to clients?

Yes. Turn on the reminders add-on in settings and add a little prepaid credit. Each reminder goes out on WhatsApp first and falls back to a plain text automatically if the client has no WhatsApp, from the same number, with a button to view or manage the booking. The studio chooses which messages send: reminders and cancellation notices are on, the booking confirmation is off until you want it. Each message costs $0.10, charged to the studio, and clients can reply STOP anytime. Available to start for mobile numbers in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand.
