Built around the way dance schools actually work.

Why AXIS
Less switching. Less chasing. More time for your studio.
Running a dance school involves far more than teaching. AXIS connects the tasks that usually live across spreadsheets, payment systems, inboxes, calendars and separate booking tools.
- Too many separate systems for classes, payments and messaging
- Trial information typed in twice — once by the family, once by you
- Chasing unpaid balances by hand
- Siblings and families scattered across separate records
- Customer-facing software that doesn't feel like your school

For studio owners
See the whole studio at a glance.
Active students, new trials, enrolments, outstanding payments, room use and staff schedules — one dashboard, updated as it happens. No more piecing the picture together from five different tools.
- Capacity alerts before a class overbooks
- Recent orders and announcements in one feed
- Action items that tell you what needs attention today
Your studio's identity
Built by AXIS. Branded by you.
Every school can customise the customer-facing app with its own logo, light or dark mode, up to five brand colours, class imagery and contact details — while the layout, usability and interaction design stay controlled by AXIS, so the experience is always consistent and accessible.
- Own logo, colours and light/dark theme
- Branded class imagery and announcements
- Same structure and accessibility, every time
For studios
Built with dance schools, for dance schools.
AXIS is built around the realities of running a studio — trials, siblings, instalments, multiple venues, and the constant admin that comes with all of it. We're onboarding our first studios now; real stories and studio logos will land here as schools go live.
