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 £29 Starter, £79 Studio, or £159 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 £1,400/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, single payment with deposit + balance options, separate intake form from drop-in students, refund and swap rules that differ from open classes. Platforms that handle this well treat the cohort as a first-class scheduling entity. Junocal, Mariana Tek, and Walla all do this natively. Mindbody can be configured to do it but the workflow is less native. 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 treat them as first-class.

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 handles them as first-class events. 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. Junocal handles per-service intake natively. Most platforms can be configured for this but the workflow varies in how much manual setup is required.
