5

Celebration message sent automatically

Every promotion triggers a personalized message to student and parent. The moment that keeps families talking about your school.

Belt test prep used to take a full weekend. Now it takes 20 minutes. Generate the list, send the invites, collect fees — done.

I used to track belt ranks in a notebook. Then a spreadsheet. Both required me to remember everything. MyStudio shows me who’s ready to test and handles the rest.
