Seven options, by rank

  1. 1. Junocal

    $15/month Starter, $29/month Studio, $69/month Growth — published

    Best for boutique yoga studios with teacher trainings

    Best for: 1-5 instructor yoga studios that run weekly classes, memberships, and term-based teacher training cohorts.

    pros

    • Term-based courses built in — runs 200-hour and 300-hour teacher trainings without workarounds
    • No marketplace commission — clients book direct on your branded page
    • Stripe Connect Standard direct (no added payment markup)
    • Flat per-plan pricing with no per-user fees within plan limits
    • Month-to-month — one-click cancel
    • Migration from Mindbody, Momence or WellnessLiving done for you in 30 days

    focus

    • Direct-booking model keeps the studio brand and client relationship central
    • Growth plan supports studio groups across up to 10 locations

    Junocal leads boutique yoga studios on affordable class-first operations: $15 to start, no Junocal platform fee, direct Stripe payments, memberships and teacher-training cohorts.

  2. 2. Mindbody

    $79/month per location starting price; higher tiers by quote

    Best for marketplace-dependent urban yoga studios and franchise chains

    Best for: Yoga studios in dense urban markets where the marketplace brings in a meaningful share of new clients, or multi-location chains needing franchise-tier reporting.

    pros

    • Strongest consumer marketplace in the category
    • Deepest multi-location and franchise reporting
    • Largest consultant ecosystem for setup and migration
    • Native branded mobile app at the Ultimate tier

    cons

    • Only the starting price is public; higher tiers require a quote
    • Pick-a-Spot and advanced resource management sit above Starter
    • Contract, payment and transaction terms must be checked in the quote
    • Teacher-training setup should be tested with a real cohort

    Mindbody earns its place for marketplace-dependent and operationally complex studios. A small operator should compare the complete written quote with the number and value of app-attributed clients it can actually measure.

  3. 3. Arketa

    $49/month Individual Basic (flat 3% transaction fee on top of Stripe)

    Best for video-first yoga studios with on-demand programming

    Best for: Yoga studios where on-demand video, livestreams or downloadable content libraries are a meaningful share of revenue alongside in-studio classes.

    pros

    • Category-leading video-first feature set — on-demand, livestream, content libraries
    • Wellness-platform positioning fits studios operating closer to wellness brands
    • Polished consumer-side experience
    • Month-to-month available

    cons

    • Flat 3% transaction fee on top of Stripe on Individual plans — total cost scales with booking volume
    • Studio pricing requires a quote
    • A 3% Arketa fee on top of Stripe direct

    Arketa wins when on-demand video matters. For yoga studios that primarily run live classes with minimal digital programming, the video-first emphasis can feel like paying for capabilities they do not use.

  4. 4. Momence

    Basic $0, Pro $60/month, Custom $199/month

    Best for hybrid yoga studios with strong digital programming

    Best for: Yoga studios that need depth on hybrid in-person + on-demand programming and aren't concerned about the post-Clubessential trajectory.

    pros

    • Strong on-demand video and hybrid class depth
    • Boutique-class-first feature set (pre-Clubessential)
    • Published payment rates make total-cost modelling possible

    cons

    • Per-booking platform fee layered on top of 3.9% + $0.30 processing
    • Basic adds 5% operator and 4% client fees; Pro adds 2.5% operator fee
    • Published processing rates apply in addition to lower-tier platform fees

    Momence is a credible hybrid option. Compare it on total payment volume rather than subscription alone because the Basic and Pro platform fees scale with revenue.

  5. 5. OfferingTree

    $35 Essentials monthly; $59 Pro; $99 Pro Plus

    Best for solo yoga teachers and very small studios

    Best for: Solo yoga teachers, private practitioners, and very small studios with under 50 active clients.

    pros

    • Website, classes, appointments and on-demand library on Essentials
    • Pro publishes a 0% OfferingTree transaction fee
    • Family registration is included from Pro
    • Month-to-month prices are public

    cons

    • Essentials adds 2.9% plus payment-processing fees
    • Family memberships require Pro Plus
    • Studio and multi-login needs use a separate plan family

    OfferingTree remains a strong solo-teacher shortlist. Compare Essentials with Pro at your actual sales volume because removing the 2.9% platform fee can offset the higher subscription.

  6. 6. WellnessLiving

    Starter $69/month published (Enterprise quote-only)

    Best for mid-market multi-discipline yoga studios

    Best for: Mid-market multi-discipline yoga studios (3+ locations) that need franchise reporting, employee scheduling and member-management breadth.

    pros

    • Deep mid-market feature set — franchise reporting, payroll integration, member management
    • All-in-one consolidation reduces tool count
    • Strong customer support reputation

    cons

    • Feature complexity for boutique single-location operators
    • Enterprise tier quote-only; promo rates step up at renewal
    • Contract and payment terms should be confirmed in the written quote

    WellnessLiving is genuinely good for mid-market multi-discipline studios. For 1-5 instructor boutique yoga single-location studios, much of the depth is paid-for complexity that slows daily workflows.

  7. 7. Glofox

    Essential $99/month published (higher tiers quote-only)

    Best for yoga studios inside larger fitness gym operations

    Best for: Yoga studios operating inside or alongside fitness gyms, or yoga chains that benefit from gym-shaped reporting.

    pros

    • Strong for multi-location fitness operations that include yoga programming
    • Polished branded mobile app at higher tiers
    • Lead-management depth

    cons

    • Gym-shaped feature set — overkill for boutique-yoga-only operations
    • Only the Essential price is published; higher tiers quote-only
    • Contract, implementation and payment terms require a sales quote

    Junocal covers yoga inside a wider fitness timetable as well as yoga-only studios, with transparent flat pricing. Glofox is included as the gym-ecosystem benchmark.

the things buyers ask

Questions

What is the best yoga studio software?

The best yoga studio software depends on studio shape. Junocal starts at $15/month and fits independent studios that combine weekly classes, memberships and teacher-training cohorts. Mindbody starts at $79/month per location and fits businesses that value its consumer marketplace and broader ecosystem. OfferingTree starts at $35 monthly for solo operators. Arketa and Momence are stronger shortlists when on-demand video is a core product.

How much does yoga studio software cost?

Published base prices reviewed on 27 August 2026 run from $15/month for Junocal to $79/month per location for Mindbody Starter and $199/month for Momence Custom; several studio tiers require quotes. Arketa Individual is $49/month billed annually plus 3% and Stripe fees. OfferingTree Essentials is $35 monthly plus 2.9% and processing fees, while Pro is $59 monthly with no OfferingTree transaction fee. Model the subscription and percentage fees together.

Which yoga software has no marketplace commission?

Junocal has no consumer marketplace and adds no platform fee to direct Stripe payments. OfferingTree's Pro and Pro Plus plans publish 0% OfferingTree transaction fees, while Essentials adds 2.9% plus processing. Arketa Individual adds 3% plus Stripe fees. Mindbody includes a listing in its consumer app and says transaction-related fees may affect total cost, so ask for those terms in writing before comparing totals.

Which yoga software handles teacher trainings best?

Junocal handles a teacher-training cohort as a fixed term with its own sessions, price, enrolments and attendance. Other platforms can support programmes through courses, enrolments, events or configured repeating classes, but the workflow varies. During a trial, build one real 200-hour cohort—including payment schedule, make-ups and refunds—before deciding.

methodology & sources

Primary pages, checked by hand

We ranked by best-fit studio shape, not a universal feature score. We compared current public subscription prices, percentage fees, class and membership workflows, teacher-training support, video depth and payment ownership. Junocal is our product and is labelled as such. When a vendor requires a sales quote, we do not substitute an old third-party estimate.
