Krokio
Software for dance studios that teach private lessons as well as classes: one web app for the front desk and the owner, and one app for students and instructors.
Schedule
Private lessons
Each instructor's own week, booked from the desk or by students themselves, with your own rules for notice and late cancels.
Coaching days
Bring in a visiting coach: open a day of one-on-one slots at the coach's price, let students book them, and add the student's own instructor to dance along.
Classes and parties
Repeating classes (weekly, 1st and 3rd of the month, and so on), seat limits, waitlists that offer a freed place, and drafts you publish when ready.
QR sign-off for private lessons
After a private lesson, the instructor shows a QR code from their instructor app. The student scans it with their phone's camera to sign off the lesson as taken: no paperwork, and no app needed. Each code is for that one lesson only, so a photo of it is safe. It works from the start of the lesson until a few hours afterwards; the studio sets how long. Group classes and parties are marked at the desk, and instructors mark progress checks separately in Krokio.
Students and families
Family accounts
A parent books for their children, and for themselves if they dance too. Messages go to the parent or the student, whoever should get them.
Packages and memberships
Lesson packages and memberships, lessons booked before they're paid for, up to a limit you set, and bonus lessons.
Gift cards and points
Gift cards that never expire: sell, redeem and refund them safely. Reward students with points.
Photos
Put a photo on your packages, classes and coaching days, so students see what they're choosing.
The front desk and the owner
Sales at the desk
Record sales by card, cash or cheque, take part payments, and void or refund with every step recorded.
Reports and Studio Health
The reports your studio runs on, and Studio Health: one light that tells you, in plain words, if anything needs attention.
Staff and roles
Front desk and admin roles with secure sign-in. Remove someone's access and it ends at once.
One app for students and instructors
Students book, cancel, join waitlists and sign off their private lessons; instructors see their week and answer requests. It works in the browser today, and is coming soon to the app stores. Students and instructors sign in with a one-time code: no passwords to forget.
Your website stays yours
Your studio's own website stays your public face. It links to your booking pages, and your public events get their own pages that search engines can read.
Selling and promoting your studio
Your studio page and listings Coming soon
A public page for your studio, plus ready-made sections you copy into your own website, whatever it's built with, and a feed for custom sites. Your classes, parties and packages stay up to date in both.
Buy online Coming soon
Students buy packages, tickets and gift cards online. Payments go straight to your studio's own account. No platform fee on online payments: studios pay only Stripe's own processing fees.
QR flyers Coming soon
Every listing gets a printable QR flyer for the desk and your instructors. A flyer's QR code points to a link you can update later, so printed flyers stay current, and you can see how many times it's been scanned.
Early-bird tickets Coming soon
Set an early-bird price; it changes to the full door price before the event on its own. Tickets can stay on sale until the party ends.
Keeping everyone informed
Announcements Coming soon
Message everyone booked on a class or party in one go. When you cancel an event, everyone booked is released and told by app notification or email, and ticket payments are refunded.
Notifications and Messages Coming soon
Messages arrive as app notifications first, then by email, so you don't pay for texts. Everyone has a Messages list in the app.
Money and moving in
Memberships with autopay Coming soon
Monthly memberships that renew and charge on their own, with the renewal terms shown at checkout and online cancellation for members.
Instructor pay statements Coming soon
Each instructor's pay, worked out from your own rates, as a statement they can read.
Import from other systems Coming soon
Bring your students, packages and history over from the system you use today.
Accounting export Coming soon
Send your sales to your bookkeeping software.
Also coming: the student and instructor app in the app stores, and home-screen banners for your news and offers.
