Can I sell dance classes as a term with one upfront payment?

Yes. Bizzly sells a full term of weekly classes as a single Stripe payment at sign-up, and the child is auto-enrolled in their weekly class for the whole term. A family joining mid-term is charged a pro-rated price for the classes remaining — no manual calculations.

How do age bands work for children's dance classes?

Each class is an age-banded session — for example Twinkle Toes (18 months–3 yrs) through to Show Squad (8–11 yrs) — with its own weekly slot and capacity. Parents book the band that matches their child, and every class has a hard capacity limit.

What happens when a class is full?

Full classes take waitlist entries automatically. When a place opens up, the next family on the list is offered it and can book without you sending a single message.

Can I sell holiday dance camps alongside weekly classes?

Yes. Full-day holiday camps are sold by the single day or as a discounted multi-day pack. Parents book and pay online, and pack purchases auto-book every camp day in one go.

Do parents get a portal to manage their child's classes?

Yes. Parents can see how many classes are left on their term, move a class, manage payment details, and keep each child's profile — date of birth, medical notes, emergency contacts and consent — up to date.

Can families with more than one child use a single account?

Yes. Multi-child families manage every dancer under one login — each child has their own profile and band, with all classes, camps and payments in one place.

Does Bizzly handle free trial classes?

Yes. New families can book a free taster class in the age-appropriate band online, with no commitment — a proven way to convert enquiries into term enrolments.

Can parents ask questions on WhatsApp?

Yes. The Bizzly AI assistant answers parents automatically on WhatsApp — class availability, moving between classes, term dates, camp days and payment questions — day and night.

Led by DBS-checked, qualified dance teachers, every class is carefully designed to suit your child's age and stage — from first wobbly steps to show-ready routines.

My daughter counts down to Saturdays. Booking the term took two minutes and the reminders mean we've never missed a class.

Show Squad parent

We joined mid-term and it just charged us for the classes left. The holiday camps are a lifesaver in August.
