Skill-based class placement with assessment tracking and instructor recommendations for advancement per student. Software for creating employee schedules, managing shift swaps, tracking time and attendance, and forecasting labor costs.
If any of these sound familiar, you are not alone. Most dance businesses deal with these every day.
Class level placement where new students self-select into classes that are too advanced or too basic for their skill
Recital and performance coordination that requires months of rehearsal scheduling, costume ordering, and parent communication
Family billing where multiple children in different classes need unified invoicing with sibling discounts
Studio space scheduling conflicts when multiple instructors need the same room at the same time for different programs
Student retention during summer break when families travel and students lose momentum on technique progress
Every pain point above has a matching solution built into Deelo — no extra plugins, no extra cost.
