Scheduling software built for dance studios
Fill every level, every room, and every trial slot — so dancers self-book the right class while you're on the studio floor teaching. Slotly gives dance studios and their instructors a single booking link, automated reminders, and no-show protection — so your dance studio stays booked without the phone tag. A beginner booking into advanced pointe wastes everyone's night and forces a shuffle. With Slotly you publish each class as its own event — Ballet II, Intermediate Hip-Hop, Adult Tap — with its own level, room, instructor, and cap, so dancers only ever book the class they actually belong in.
What scheduling chaos costs dance studios and their instructors.
Dancers land in the wrong-level class
A beginner booking into advanced pointe wastes everyone's night and forces a shuffle. With Slotly you publish each class as its own event — Ballet II, Intermediate Hip-Hop, Adult Tap — with its own level, room, instructor, and cap, so dancers only ever book the class they actually belong in.
One studio floor, three teachers, constant clashes
Studio A can only hold one class at a time, but ballet, jazz, and contemporary all want the 6pm slot. Slotly's per-resource availability treats each room as a bookable resource alongside each instructor, so it never offers a slot where the room or the teacher is already committed.
Free trial classes get booked and ghosted
A no-show on a trial is a lost lead and a spot a paying dancer could have taken. Slotly caps trial spots per class, sends automated SMS and email reminders with one-tap confirm or reschedule, and can hold a card on file so the trial dancer actually shows up.
Everything a dance studio needs to stay booked.
A class per level, with capacity and waitlists
Set seats for Ballet I, Intermediate Jazz, or Adult Tap. When a class fills, dancers can join a waitlist instead of overbooking the room, so you keep a running list of who wants in the moment a spot frees up.
Per-instructor and per-room availability
Model each teacher and each studio room as its own resource, so a class only appears when both the instructor and the room are genuinely free — no more two classes fighting over Studio A.
Recurring weekly classes for the whole term
Term classes meet the same hour every week. Set the recurrence once and dancers hold their standing Tuesday 5pm spot all season, without you rebuilding the schedule each week.
Private lessons and recital slots with deposits
Open private-lesson and recital-fitting slots dancers can book directly, and take a deposit or hold a card via Stripe on high-value bookings so a missed private doesn't cost you studio time.
How dance studios and their instructors use Slotly.
- A parent books their child into Ballet II on Tuesdays at 5pm — a recurring weekly class capped at 12 — straight from the studio's booking page at 10pm.
- An adult dancer grabs the last open spot in a trial hip-hop class and confirms with one tap when the reminder text arrives the night before.
- A competition-team dancer books a 30-minute private lesson with a specific instructor and pays a deposit before recital season fills up.
Dance Studios scheduling: your questions answered
Can dancers book specific classes, levels, and instructors?
Yes. Each class is its own event with its own level, instructor, room, duration, and seat cap, so dancers only see and book the exact class they belong in — Ballet II with a specific teacher in a specific studio, not a generic open slot.
Does Slotly handle recurring weekly classes and capacity limits?
Yes. Set a class to recur weekly for the term so dancers hold a standing slot all season, and cap seats per class. When a class fills, dancers can join a waitlist so you keep a list of who wants the next open spot instead of overbooking the room.
Is Slotly a full studio-management system with billing and attendance?
No — Slotly is the public booking and reminder layer, not a full studio-management suite, so it doesn't handle tuition billing, payroll, or attendance records. It runs alongside your existing system and syncs to your instructors' Google or Outlook calendars, while it takes deposits and payments at booking through Stripe. There's no free-forever plan, but you can try it on a 14-day trial.
