Getting started with classes and studios

This path is for organisations that run lessons per class, such as dance, yoga, swimming or gymnastics, or dojos for karate, judo and kendo. The wording becomes "club, class, session, member" (dojos say "practice") and schedule entries have no opponent. Monthly tuition is collected through membership plans, and weekly sessions are created as a repeating schedule.

FAQ

What about dojos?

If you choose karate, judo or kendo, sessions are called "practices". Everything else matches this guide.

How do I collect for trial lessons?

Turn on "Trial OK" when you create a lesson, and it's listed on the club's website as a date people can try; they apply from there. If the club charges for trials, enter the trial fee and a guest payment link is created, so they pay when they apply. Trial participants don't need a BuPay account. Applications arrive under Inbox on the club's Website tab.
