Every studio management feature, working as one system

Studio management software is where your schedule, your members and your class fees come together. Whether it's a Pilates, yoga or reformer studio, a bootcamp, a boxing gym or a gym with group classes, it comes down to the same thing: members should be able to book and pay on their own, and you want to see what's happening without logging everything yourself. Avana has 21 features for that, and they all connect.

Start with the schedule

Everything turns on your classes. A good online class schedule is ready months ahead, lets members claim their own spot and tracks how many places are left. When a class fills up, you want a waitlist that passes the free spot on by itself when someone cancels. If you also teach one-to-one, private and duet sessions belong on the same schedule, so a private session never clashes with a group class.

Packs and memberships that keep count

Most studios sell a class pack, a membership or both. What separates a system that helps from one that makes work is what happens after the sale. Does the pack count down with every class, does the member hear before it expires, and is the membership charged each month without you lifting a finger? In Avana, all three happen.

Knowing your members as the studio grows

With ten members you know everyone. With two hundred you don't. So you want to see on each member's card what's left on their pack, when they last came and whether a payment is outstanding. That's what member management is for. Someone who stays away for a few weeks gets an invitation to come back; the member retention page explains how.

Getting paid without chasing

A member who has paid upfront tends to turn up. That's why members pay in Avana when they book, and every payment is recorded with an invoice. If a payment fails, the member gets a new payment link automatically. The month then adds up for you and for whoever does your books. There's more under online payments.

Growing without extra systems

If you want to sell more than classes, gift cards and discount codes, a studio shop and corporate memberships sit in the same system. To see what's working, reports and insights show which classes fill up and how many members stay.

What to look at when you choose

Look beyond the feature list at how the parts work together. Does it cost you commission on your takings? Are you tied into an annual contract? Can you bring your members along with their credit? With Avana there's no commission, you can cancel any month, and we move your members and their credit across for free.
