Classes and appointments across your week.
Schedule
Scheduled classes, course sessions, appointments and virtual sessions in one calendar. Switch between day, week and agenda views, or filter by class type, instructor, room and location.
One calendar — Classes, courses and 1:1s together.
Useful filters — Instructor, room, location and offering.
Faster changes — Duplicate a week or notify a whole class.
Classes
Capacity, duration and price in one place.
Classes
Set the duration, capacity, price, location mode and waitlist rules for a group class type, then schedule individual or recurring sessions from it. Fixed-term courses have their own workflow.
Capacity built in — Set spots once for every session of a class.
Flexible access — Drop-ins, packs and memberships work together.
Waitlists included — Fill cancellations without chasing people manually.
Annual cost = subscription + required add-ons + platform percentage × eligible payment volume + processing + one-off setup.
A hypothetical 2% platform fee on $8,000 of monthly eligible payments adds $1,920 a year before processing. Unknown quote fields stay unknown.
Run the cost calculatorThe best choice depends on the studio. Junocal is the affordable class-first option for independent barre studios that want published pricing, packs, memberships and a branded booking page. Walla is a broader premium studio bundle. Mindbody can fit businesses that can measure value from its consumer marketplace. Test the same real class, cancellation and payment workflow in every finalist.
Only when clients reserve a particular station or piece of equipment. An open barre room may need only a class capacity. If named positions matter, ask the vendor to demonstrate the complete booking, cancellation and released-spot flow on the exact plan in your quote.
Junocal starts at $15/month. Mindbody's current US price starts at $79 per location, with local plans varying by country. OfferingTree publishes studio plans from $120 monthly or $100/month billed annually. Walla publishes Core at $299 per location per month and Pro at $599. Momence now requests a custom quote. Payment processing, add-ons and onboarding remain separate where applicable.
Start with the smallest plan that can run your real opening timetable, payment rules and staff access without workarounds. Junocal is designed for this independent-studio shape and starts at $15/month. A broader package may be worth more if it replaces marketing, native-app or payroll tools you would otherwise buy separately.
