Breakdance class software: bookings, crews & battles

Breakdance classes: full floors, sorted crews, battles that run on time. More floor time, less admin.

Class bookings live in a group chat. Parents pay term fees in cash at the door. Battle entries end up on a clipboard and half the new kids started without a waiver. We build systems for breaking schools that handle the classes, the crews and the jams in one place. Then we host them and look after them.

Looking for breakdance class or dance school booking software that gets battles too?

A breaking school runs a lot more than a timetable. There are kids classes after school, teen and adult sessions at night, open practice, holiday workshops, crews training for comps and a jam or battle every few months. Most dance studio software is built for ballet concerts and costume fees. It has no idea what a cypher, a 2v2 or a top 16 bracket is, so the battle side ends up on paper and in DMs.

Wollopit builds custom software around how your school actually runs. Parents book and pay for the term online and sign the waiver as they go. Adults grab a class pack on their phone. Crews get their own training schedule and battle entries come in online with categories, fees and brackets ready on the night. We connect the tools you already like and host the lot on our own servers, so you can stay on the floor.

01The problems

What we hear from breakdance schools

Does your breakdance school have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.

Most breaking schools we talk to are run by dancers who'd rather be teaching windmills than chasing invoices. The admin creeps in through the group chat and never leaves.

03The systems

The big ones

Your whole breaking school, on one system.

These are the systems breaking schools ask us about most. Each one works on its own. Join them up and the admin mostly runs itself.

Class booking & enrolments

Classes full, fees paid, forms signed.

Parents enrol their kids for the term and pay online, signing the waiver as they go. Adults book a single class or grab a pack on their phone. You open the app and see exactly who's coming tonight.

  • Kids, teens and adult timetables
  • Class caps and waitlists
  • Term enrolments with instalments
  • Casual passes and class packs
  • Digital waivers and medical notes
  • Sibling discounts applied automatically
  • Voucher and rebate records
  • Check-in by tablet or phone
  • SMS for cancelled or moved classes
  • Trial class sign-ups

Battles & jams

Entries online. Brackets ready before the DJ starts.

Dancers enter and pay online by category, so you know the numbers weeks out. On the night, check-in feeds straight into prelims and brackets. Results go up as each round finishes, on a screen and your website.

  • Online entries by category and age
  • Entry fees and caps per bracket
  • Spectator tickets with QR check-in
  • Prelim scoring for judges
  • Top 8, 16 or 32 brackets
  • Quick swaps for no-shows
  • Live bracket screen for the crowd
  • Results posted to your website
  • Judge, DJ and MC run sheet
  • Past battle results kept on file

Crews & progress

Every kid knows their next move. So do their parents.

Teachers tick off moves and levels from their phone after class. Parents see the progress without cornering you in the car park. Comp crews get their own schedule, notices and battle entries in one place.

  • Levels and moves per student
  • Teacher notes from a phone
  • Progress shared with parents
  • Level-up notifications
  • Crew rosters and training times
  • Crew notices instead of group chats
  • Attendance per student and crew
  • Comp and battle history per dancer

Billing & members

No more cash in a bum bag.

Term fees, class packs and memberships bill themselves through Stripe or Ezidebit. Failed payments retry on their own. Everything lands in Xero so the books match the floor.

  • Term fees upfront or by instalments
  • Recurring memberships for adults
  • Automatic failed-payment retries
  • Overdue reminders by SMS and email
  • Family accounts with one bill
  • Workshop and event sales
  • Payments synced to Xero or MYOB
  • Pause memberships for injury or travel
04How it changes

Before and after

A jam night, wolloped.

Here's how a jam night could change. Every school runs its battles differently, so we map yours first.

Before

  1. Entries collected by DM and on a clipboard
  2. Cash entry fees in an envelope
  3. Brackets drawn on a whiteboard at the venue
  4. A no-show wrecks the draw
  5. Waivers missing for half the kids
  6. Results posted on Instagram a week later

After

  1. Entries and fees in online weeks out
  2. Every category capped and paid
  3. Brackets built from check-in in seconds
  4. No-shows swapped with one tap
  5. Every dancer signed before they arrived
  6. Results live on screen and on your website

07How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your breakdance school: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We watch a class, a check-in rush and a jam night, then work out where the admin is eating your floor time.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your classes, terms, crews, battles, payments, waivers, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually bookings and term fees first so next term starts clean.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks before a battle you call the people who built it.

08Questions

FAQ

Things breakdance schools ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Can it run battle brackets?

Yes. Entries are seeded into brackets by category from the check-in list. You can swap no-shows on the spot and results post after each round.

Can parents enrol and pay for the whole term online?

Yes. Parents enrol, pay upfront or by instalments and sign the waiver in one go. Anyone behind gets an automatic reminder so you're not chasing cash.

Can adults buy casual passes or class packs?

Yes. Drop-ins, class packs and memberships are sold online and counted down at check-in, so you always know what's left on someone's card.

Can parents see how their kid is progressing?

Yes. Teachers tick off moves and levels from their phone and parents see the progress in their login, with a heads up when their kid is ready to move up.

We already use Mindbody. Do we have to switch?

No. If your booking platform is doing its job we build around it: battles, crews, progress and the website on top. If it's holding you back we'll show you what replacing it involves before anything changes.

How much does a breaking school system cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand it. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

How long does it take?

Smaller jobs like battle entries or online booking can be quick. Bigger systems are planned in stages so you get the first win early, often before your next term or jam.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.

We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?

Usually, yes. We keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
