Run yoga classes
without expensive studio software.
A simpler way to take signups, collect payments, send reminders, and manage class attendance — built for independent instructors, not big studios.
- Recurring classes and drop-in signups
- Limited spots with automatic waitlist
- Email and SMS reminders sent automatically
Mindbody is overkill. Google Forms + PayPal loses you money.
Independent yoga instructors end up either overpaying for studio software they don't need, or stitching together free tools that don't actually work together.
- Mindbody costs hundreds a month and requires a setup consultant
- Google Forms collects RSVPs but not payment — Venmo handles that separately
- PayPal links look unprofessional and take a bigger cut than they should
- No-shows on a drop-in class mean a spot you could have waitlisted
- Manually texting the studio address and class reminders
There's a better way. ↓
Up and running in minutes
Set up your class schedule
Create recurring classes for weekly formats like Vinyasa or Yin. Set your drop-in price, spot limit, and class details.
Share your signup link
Post your class link on Instagram, your website, or email. Students sign up and pay drop-in or in advance.
Teach — reminders and check-in handled
Automated reminders go out before class. Check students in from your phone when they arrive.
Everything you need, nothing you don't
Recurring classes
Create a recurring weekly or bi-weekly class once and it repeats automatically. No re-creating the same class every week.
Limited spots + waitlist
Cap your class size and let the waitlist handle overflow. Students get notified automatically when a spot opens.
Drop-in signups
Collect drop-in payment at the time of signup — no need to handle cash at the door or chase PayPal payments.
Email and SMS reminders
Automated reminders go out with class time, location, and any notes — so students don't forget to show up.
Simple attendance tracking
Check students in from your phone on class day. Your attendance history is always available.
Private class links
Run a workshop or retreat for a specific group? Private links keep the class off your public schedule.

Simpler than Mindbody, more powerful than a Google Form
Mindbody is built for multi-instructor studios with complex membership tiers — it's expensive, slow to set up, and way more than one independent instructor needs. On the other end, Google Forms and PayPal don't connect, don't send reminders, and require manual follow-up after every signup. Classy Studio sits right in between: purpose-built for independent yoga instructors who want paid signups, recurring classes, automatic reminders, and a clean roster — without the overhead of enterprise studio software.
