All-in-one Dance Studio Software
Ballet at 4. Hip-Hop on Saturdays. Recital rehearsal all spring. One platform that handles family accounts, term-based enrollment, and recital events — so you can focus on what happens on the floor.
Most dance studios serve whole families across multiple seasons. Your software should handle both.
Dance studios have a rhythm to them — a fall session, a spring season, a recital at the end. Parents enroll multiple kids in different classes, pay for everything from one account, and expect a recital experience that feels special. Most studio software treats each student as a separate entity and each payment as a separate transaction, creating a mess for families and a nightmare for your front desk.
Zipper is dance studio software that handles family accounts natively — one parent login, multiple dancers, one payment method, individual class history per child. Season enrollments and recital events are built into the same platform as regular classes. Everything a dance studio needs, in one place.
One parent account, multiple dancers, one smooth booking experience.
- One family account with individual profiles per dancer
- Fully branded experience — your studio, your colors, your app
- No marketplace, no competing studios, just your classes and your community
Automated communications that keep families enrolled season over season.
Parent communication is constant — class reminders, recital details, costume deadlines, enrollment opens. Most studio owners do this manually, scattered across texts and emails. Zipper centralizes it all and automates the routine pieces, so you can focus on what happens on the floor.
- Season re-enrollment reminders sent automatically before enrollment opens
- Recital countdown sequences with dates, dress rehearsal info, and ticket links
- Sibling and family package campaigns that incentivize full-family enrollment
- Birthday class credits for young dancers — automatically issued
- Unified Inbox for email, SMS, and social DMs in one place
More revenue, fewer tool subscriptions, less tech stress.
Zipper is dance studio software that replaces your booking platform, email tool, website, and lead management with one system designed for how dance studios actually run today.
-
Family accounts
One parent account, multiple dancers. Each child has their own enrollment history, costume notes, and age-appropriate class access — managed from a single family login with one shared payment method.
-
