Best Software for Yoga Studios: Classes, Passes and Workshops

A yoga studio needs software that makes its offer easy to understand: what a student can attend, what they have paid for and how to book their next class. The alternatives depend on how the studio teaches and earns revenue.

Momoyoga focuses on yoga classes and student purchases; Gomry combines live sessions, eligible prepaid visits and separately ticketed workshops. Mindbody combines studio operations with a consumer discovery app. Arketa and OfferingTree are relevant when paid recorded content is part of the offer. A studio selling mostly live attendance has a different buying decision from a teacher replacing a website, video library and booking tool together.

What each alternative provides

Momoyoga

Momoyoga supports memberships, class passes, drop-ins and event tickets, plus in-person, online and hybrid classes. Its reporting covers attendance, revenue, memberships and teacher performance. It is a direct comparison for a yoga business combining regular practice with occasional events.

Mindbody

Mindbody supports class and appointment scheduling, payments, staff management and reporting. Its consumer app adds a discovery route outside the studio’s own website; its business tools serve the team running the operation. The fitness offering also describes marketing automation and an AI Concierge for customer questions and bookings.

Arketa

Arketa combines class and appointment scheduling with paid video libraries and courses. This covers both scheduled attendance and access to recorded teaching material.

OfferingTree

OfferingTree documents classes, appointments and events, memberships and packages, a website builder, marketing and on-demand content. Its digital offer includes video libraries, courses and challenges.

Punchpass

Punchpass supports a class timetable that can be embedded in the business’s website. Its waitlist documentation describes notifying waiting customers or automatically filling the next place.

Where Gomry fits a yoga studio

Gomry supports live classes through Experiences, prepaid Bundles and recurring Subscriptions. Students buy access and book eligible available dates separately; a pack does not reserve every class. A guest workshop sold as an Event has its own ticket, outside Bundle credit. Contacts keeps purchase and attendance history across the program.

This fits a small or midsize studio combining regular practice with public workshops. Paid recorded courses require a separate content-access workflow. There is no monthly platform subscription; paid sales carry service fees plus processing, so compare the studio’s sales mix with a subscription-based quote.

Momence

Momence supports classes, courses, workshops and appointments, with capacity settings and booking restrictions. Its automated waitlists address what happens when someone leaves a full session.

TeamUp

TeamUp describes configurable schedules and membership tiers, including offers such as private coaching, additional sessions and workshops. It also offers migration assistance.

bsport

bsport documents passes and subscriptions, waitlists, a branded member app, instructor substitutions and payroll. Its platform also includes marketing, audience segmentation and multi-location management.

WellnessLiving

WellnessLiving describes client management, staff permissions and payroll, forms, reporting and payment/POS tools alongside scheduling. Its staff app supports booking clients into classes and managing purchases. It is relevant when reception needs to handle several parts of a visit, such as registration information, payment and a booking adjustment.

Eversports Manager

Eversports Manager provides booking, team and customer management, invoicing, and reports covering bookings, vouchers and payment methods. Its app and website add a consumer marketplace where people can discover and book activities. Customer groups and automated emails support follow-up.

Walla

Walla documents scheduling, plans, payments, payroll, marketing and reporting for boutique fitness. Its retention offering includes re-engagement workflows and a product intended to identify customers at risk of leaving.

fitDEGREE

fitDEGREE describes group and private scheduling, instructor assignments, room availability, payment records and reporting for independent boutique studios. Its community offering includes a private feed, invitations and chat within the member app.

Bookwhen

Bookwhen supports session and course registration, with passes and memberships on applicable plans. A course can represent enrollment in a sequence, while a pass can support eligible future visits. Its public API is read-only and directs booking through the booking page.

ClassPass

ClassPass is a consumer channel for discovering and booking fitness and wellness activities.

Compare the options

What a student should be able to understand before paying

A drop-in buys one attendance. A pack buys a balance to use later. A renewing membership may grant a number of visits per period or another entitlement. A course can reserve a place across a sequence. These offers may appear on the same timetable, but the student should never have to guess which purchase covers a class.

For a studio with slow-flow, vinyasa and occasional guest workshops, decide whether the pack includes every regular class or a selected group. Make workshop eligibility explicit. A student buying five visits should know whether the guest workshop uses one of them, requires an additional payment or is a separate ticket entirely.

Full classes, cancellations and expiry

When a class fills, a waiting list needs a clear policy. Notification gives students a chance to claim a place; automatic enrollment may make a reservation on their behalf. The purchase balance, booking cutoff and cancellation rule must agree with that policy. Ask the shortlisted provider to show the last-place booking and subsequent cancellation using the studio’s actual offer.

Expiry also needs to be visible before purchase. A remaining balance does not necessarily mean every future date is eligible. Carry these terms forward when changing platforms, so existing students retain the visits they were promised.

Choose around the teaching model

An independent studio with mostly live classes: compare Gomry, Momoyoga and Punchpass. They warrant consideration for different reasons: Gomry’s class-and-event purchase model, Momoyoga’s yoga-focused offer and Punchpass’s timetable and waiting-list behavior.

An instructor selling classes and recorded courses: compare Arketa and OfferingTree first for the digital-content requirement, then determine how live booking fits. Access to a video already purchased must survive a change of booking platform.

A studio with substantial team administration: include Mindbody, bsport and WellnessLiving. Staff responsibilities, payroll or customer forms may matter more to the decision than the appearance of the public calendar.

Ownership, priorities and product development

Your booking system is a long-term supplier. Its ownership belongs in the comparison alongside features and cost, particularly when several brands on your shortlist belong to the same group. The following providers on this shortlist have private-equity ownership or backing.

Verdane holds majority control of Eversports. TeamUp belongs to DaySmart, backed by LLR Partners and Parthenon Capital. Momence belongs to Xplor, backed by Advent, Battery Ventures, Osprey and Silver Lake.

Mindbody and ClassPass share Playlist as their parent, whose investors include Vista, Affinity Partners, L Catterton and Temasek. Playlist also describes itself as founder-led.

Private-equity ownership can create pressure to prioritize financial returns or group-wide integration over a request from one business. That is a risk to examine, not evidence that a particular product has stopped improving. Before committing, ask for recent releases relevant to your operation, how customer requests reach the product team and what happens when an issue needs escalation. For a yoga studio, test whether the team understands how you combine weekly classes, passes and occasional workshops.

Founder leadership and investor ownership are separate questions: a business can have both. Gomry is founder-led, with the founders involved in product decisions and conversations with customers. Evaluate access to the team and delivered improvements, rather than relying on either label.

Compare the cost of running one real month

Use the same month of business for each proposal: paid class bookings, active plans, staff users, payment volume and the messages the studio actually sends. Include the applicable subscription, payment charges and any required app or marketing module. Separate fees paid by students from costs absorbed by the business.

If a marketplace supplies new customers, measure that contribution separately from the booking system. A lower software fee is not automatically a lower acquisition cost. Conversely, customers arriving through the studio’s own channels should not be counted as proof of marketplace value.

Questions yoga studios often ask

Can a class pack cover more than one class type?

In Gomry, a Bundle can apply to a selected pool of Experiences. The studio defines eligibility and the balance is shared across that pool. A separate Event ticket remains outside those credits.

Is online yoga the same as selling recorded courses?

No. Live online attendance takes place at a scheduled time. Recorded content requires access to material after purchase. Momoyoga documents online and hybrid classes; Arketa and OfferingTree explicitly address paid digital content.

What needs to move when changing software?

Move future reservations and remaining visits with their eligibility and expiry. Treat recurring payments and purchased digital access as separate obligations. A list of student names does not describe what those students are entitled to receive.

Choosing your shortlist

For a live yoga program with flexible packs and public workshops, start with Gomry and Momoyoga. Add Arketa or OfferingTree when recorded teaching matters, and Mindbody or bsport when the staff operation drives the decision. The best choice is the one that preserves the student’s purchase from payment through attendance.
