Best yoga studio software in the UK

For a one-to-five-instructor yoga studio that runs memberships and packs, with teacher training as a meaningful but not dominant revenue stream, Junocal at £15 Starter, £29 Studio, or £69 Growth is structurally the best fit. The five operator-friendly commitments (month-to-month, transparent pricing, Stripe Connect, no marketplace, free CSV export) match the typical yoga studio's priorities. For solo teachers or studios under fifty active clients, OfferingTree at around £35/month is the natural fit. For hybrid studios with significant on-demand video revenue, Momence remains the strongest natural fit.

Operator-friendly platforms (Junocal, OfferingTree, Arketa) sit at the lower end — £35-£200/month all-in for typical yoga-studio sizes. The dominant PE-backed platforms sit higher — Mindbody Starter around £105/month, Accelerate around £205/month. Walla and the premium tier sit around £250+/month. For a yoga studio doing £150,000/year in bookings, the all-in cost (subscription + marketplace commission + processing markup) typically ranges from around £180/year on Junocal to £8,000+/year on Mindbody with marketplace activity.

Teacher trainings run as cohort-based programmes — fixed group, fixed schedule over six to twelve months, one upfront payment with deposit + balance options, separate intake form from drop-in students, refund and swap rules that differ from open classes. The platforms that do this well let you build the cohort as its own thing rather than as a class on repeat. Junocal, Mariana Tek, and Walla all build it in. On Mindbody you can set it up, but it takes more work. For a yoga school where TT is 25%+ of revenue, the TT handling matters more than the day-to-day class scheduling.

Depends on your revenue mix. If on-demand video subscriptions are a primary product (20%+ of revenue), you probably want native integration — Momence has the strongest native video product. If video is a complement to in-person classes (recorded versions that members can access without paying extra), pairing your scheduling platform with Vimeo OTT, Uscreen, or Mighty Networks works cleanly and lets you pick the best-in-class video host. Most one-to-five-instructor yoga studios are in the second pattern. Junocal works cleanly with paired video hosts via the booking confirmation flow.

The five-business-day migration playbook applies to yoga studios the same way it does to pilates. Export your client list, booking history, memberships, packs, intake forms, and email opt-in status from Mindbody Reports. Dry-run import into the new platform's staging environment. Sign off on the data mapping. Pick a Sunday evening for cutover. Cancel the Mindbody subscription at the end of the billing period. Email opt-in status is the field most often lost — verify in the dry-run. Teacher-training cohorts also migrate cleanly on platforms that build them in as their own product.

Retreats are operationally a different product from drop-in classes — fixed capacity, deposit-plus-balance payment, stricter cancellation policy (often non-refundable inside 30 days), expanded intake form covering travel and medical considerations. Most platforms can configure retreats as a service type with custom rules. Junocal sets them up as their own event with these rules built in. Mindbody and Momence can do it with more configuration. Some studios use Eventbrite alongside their main platform for retreat ticketing — works but introduces a second system.

These typically run as separate service types with their own intake forms (covering experience and any specialist requirements), separate pricing, and sometimes separate cancellation rules. Per-service intake means a prenatal class has the appropriate health-screening fields and an experience-level requirement; trauma-informed classes can include consent options around hands-on adjustments. With Junocal, each class type carries its own intake form out of the box. Most platforms can be configured for this but the workflow varies in how much manual setup is required.
