Dance studio software for classes and skill records
Start with 25 active students and 1 instructor seat on the free Starter plan. No credit card required.
Keep student profiles, weekly dance classes, skill assessments, and registration requests in one workspace. Teachers can name their own curriculum levels and record the techniques each dancer is learning.
Share recorded progress with invited families and keep manual tuition records alongside the class roster.
Before you choose: There is no recital production, costume ordering, competition-team workflow, multi-style progression matrix, or automatic tuition collection.
Bring your routine records together
Keep the information staff use during a teaching week in one school workspace.
Workflows available in your school workspace
Your studio's technique checklist
Define levels and skills to suit your teaching. A checklist might include posture, timing, or a sequence the class is practicing. Staff record progress; the app does not supply an exam syllabus or decide advancement.
Named weekly classes
Create separate classes for the styles and groups you teach, with instructor assignment, room labels, and roster limits. A student can enroll in several classes while retaining one current curriculum.
Exclusive weekly resource reservations
Owners add named rooms, vehicles, or equipment. Staff reserve them for recurring weekly classes; overlapping reservations are rejected. Pausing a class releases its time. This does not provide dated appointments, maintenance blocks, or suitability checks.
Registration requests and approved waitlists
Enable public registration for selected classes and add intake questions for all or selected classes, with conditional follow-ups based on an earlier choice or yes/no answer. Families submit answers with a request; staff review the saved answers and approve enrollment or a waitlist place. Approved waitlists promote in order when eligible places open, with email updates for recorded changes.
Verified family access
Invite parents or guardians to a read-only portal for their linked students. They can see recorded skills, recent attendance, the latest published progress report, and family invoices. Unrelated students remain private.
Manual invoices and printable records
Owners issue invoices and record money received or refunded outside the app. Credits reduce charges with a reference and reason. Owners and linked families can print invoices and credit notes or save them as PDFs through the browser.
Certificate dates and status filters
Record student and instructor certificates, issuers, and expiry dates. Review current and expiring records in the dashboard. Staff remain responsible for checking requirements and arranging renewals.
AI drafts and suggestions for staff to review
Progress report drafts - Pro and Business
Staff request a draft from recorded student skills and attendance, review and edit its text, then publish it to linked families. Drafts stay private, later edits require republication, and staff can withdraw a shared report while retaining its publication history.
Readiness suggestions - Business
Request an assessment based on recorded progress. Instructors decide the next teaching step. An AI suggestion does not award a qualification or certify that a student is ready for an external exam.
Schedule suggestions - Business
Request suggestions from the school's recorded classes, instructors, and rooms. Staff review the output and make schedule changes themselves.
Retention review - Business
Request a review of student progress and attendance patterns to help plan staff follow-up. The app does not automatically contact students or guarantee a retention outcome.

Frequently asked questions
Can a dancer join more than one class?
Yes. Staff can enroll a student in multiple classes and record attendance separately for each. Curriculum assignment is separate: a student has one current skill tree, not a separate progression matrix for every dance style.
Does it handle recitals and costumes?
No. Recital running orders, costume measurements and purchases, competition entries, ticket sales, and rehearsal production are not implemented. The available tools cover ordinary class rosters and student skill records.
What is included in the free plan?
Starter supports 25 active students and 1 instructor seat. It includes core records, custom curricula, weekly classes, attendance, family access, and manual invoices. Pro costs $49/month for 200 active students and 5 instructor seats, with AI report drafts. Business costs $99/month with no student or instructor-seat cap and the additional AI features described here. Paid plan prices are in USD.
Can I import my existing records?
Owners can preview and import a CSV student roster, including names, email, date of birth, category, level, status, and notes. Existing matches are skipped rather than overwritten. Importing attendance history, payment history, curricula, class assignments, or external system accounts is not supported.
Can students pay online or be billed automatically?
Student payments are handled outside ProgresslyAI. Owners issue invoices and record payments, refunds, and charge credits manually. There is no student card checkout, automatic recurring tuition collection, lesson-pack balance, or automated payment reminder. The school's own paid software subscription is separate from student billing.
Who can use the family portal?
An invited parent or guardian verifies their email and joins the school. They can read only the students linked to that account and those students' invoices. There is no separate student-role login or public access to these private records.
Start with the records your staff use each week: students, skills, classes, attendance, and manual invoices. Create a free Starter school and check those workflows with a small roster before moving your operation.
