Your process is the instruction.

What the studio already does

Siblings go on one account, the costume levy falls due the same week as the term fee, and a Tuesday class that moves has to reach forty households before it happens.

  • The week

    A timetable that tests every move The room, the teacher and the families it reaches are all checked before the change is published.
  • The money

    Term fees on your own rules Sibling, loyalty and early payment rules run as the invoices are raised, and the levy sits on the same statement.
  • The family

    One account, however many dancers Two or three children sit on one login, with one statement and one reference number.
  • The asking

    Requests a person decides Approving one tells the family and the teacher whose class moved, in the same action.
  • The floor

    Rooms measured as they are used Every studio shaded by how hard it works, so the quiet one is a room you can point at.

Room for the whole studio.

Floor space

Eight teaching rooms, their capacity and a full day of bookings at a glance. Each column shows booked places against available places, from 8am to 9pm. Support spaces stay outside the figures.

Studio capacity

The building drawn open over its floors, with every room shaded by how full it is as a week runs through it. The panel beside the plan names the class on at that moment, who is teaching it and how many places are taken. A quiet room stops being a number in a report and becomes a pale room you can point at.

This week
The building through one week Two storeys drawn as open floor plans with low walls, so every room is visible from above. As the playhead moves from Monday afternoon to Saturday, each teaching studio is shaded by how full it is at that moment: pale when empty, green as it fills, rose when it is working hard. The studio with the fullest class at that moment is outlined, and the panel beside the plan names that class. Support spaces such as the foyer, office and change rooms are hatched and sit outside the count.

    Where the records live.

    Built for Australian studios, with clear answers about location, access and privacy.

    Your records belong to your studio.Your studio records live in Cloudflare D1. Our current primary database is served from Sydney, Australia. The sandbox keeps separate, temporary records.

    Australian privacy guidance, practical safeguards.The Australian Privacy Principles explain how organisations should handle personal information. APP 11 covers security: protecting records and retaining them only while needed. Your studio’s own obligations depend on its circumstances.

    Local storage, a global network.Cloudflare runs the application across its global network. A Sydney database does not mean every part of processing stays in Australia. Database location hints are not residency guarantees.

    Security is built into the code.Signed-in access, server-side permission checks and encrypted connections protect studio records. We do not claim certification to an Australian software standard; the safeguards and hosting details are stated here for you to assess.

    Card surcharges ended on 1 October 2026

    Since that date an Australian business may not add a surcharge to a card payment, across debit, credit and prepaid cards, in person and online. The ban covers cards only: BPAY, direct debit and bank transfer are not covered.

    If your fee schedule still passes card costs on to families, change it before your next invoices, and check that it does not describe direct debit and BPAY the same way.

    Nothing is locked to us. Your records are encrypted at rest on Australian infrastructure, and the export hands you the lot: the templates, the roll, the timetable and every invoice, in an open format that opens on an ordinary machine and imports into another system without a translation layer in the middle.

    Any studio owner can run that export themselves, at any time, without telling us first and without paying for it. Closing an account takes a few minutes. Your data is yours, and it is easy to take with you.
