Gott-Hughton dancers performing on stage

Built from the messy parts of running a studio

Gott-Hughton did not need generic business software. They needed a single place for the exact jobs dance owners repeat every week.

Recurring tuition

Move from post-dated cheques and monthly bank runs to tuition plans, registration fees, discounts, and failed-payment follow-up.

Studio booking

Replace WhatsApp back-and-forth with one calendar for private lessons, practice time, rentals, workshops, and blackout dates.

Family records

Keep students, guardians, emergency contacts, waivers, levels, notes, and billing status tied to the right family.

Workshop revenue

Run weekend workshops, camps, guest sessions, and seasonal intensives without starting another spreadsheet.

Why Ida OS exists

It started with a real studio owner problem.

Gott-Hughton had grown to dozens of families, multiple class levels, championship training, studio rentals, private lessons, workshops, junior instructors, waivers, and recurring tuition. The business was working, but the admin was held together with post-dated cheques, e-transfers, WhatsApp messages, email lists, and manual follow-up.

Ida OS is what we built after looking at that workflow directly. It is not generic gym software or generic scheduling software. It is the operating system an independent dance studio wishes it had once the studio gets too busy for paper and chat threads.

Before Ida OS

The common admin stack at a growing dance studio.

Monthly cheque deposits for tuition

E-transfers for registration fees

WhatsApp threads for studio availability

Manual private lesson and rental approvals

Workshop signups tracked separately

Waivers and emergency contacts on paper

How the workflow changes

One system for the jobs dance owners repeat every week.

Know every family

Students, guardians, emergency contacts, levels, notes, waivers, billing state, and discounts live together.

Control studio time

Classes, practice slots, private lessons, rentals, workshops, and blackout dates share one calendar.

Collect payments cleanly

Stripe handles tuition subscriptions and one-time charges while Ida OS keeps local payment status organized.

Sell workshops

Run guest sessions, seasonal intensives, camps, and weekend workshops without separate forms.

Communicate faster

Build toward class lists and family segments that can be reached without rebuilding email groups on every device.

See the business

Give owners a cleaner view of revenue, overdue payments, booking activity, and future reporting.

Built for studios like yours

If your studio is growing, the old admin habits start to break.

Ida OS is for owners who are still close to the day-to-day work: teaching classes, coordinating families, renting studio time, launching workshops, and trying to keep payments organized without buying a bulky enterprise system.

Single-location studios that need practical software

Competitive schools with multiple student levels

Owners who manage payments and bookings themselves

Studios that want a system before becoming a franchise
