What the Software Does for Dance Schools
Six features, all built around the same job: turn a finished class into a posted review with the least possible work from you. Nothing fluffy. Nothing you'd never use.
SMS review requests
Sent the moment you finish a class. SMS gets a 90%+ open rate within minutes.
Sentiment gate
Unhappy students give private feedback. Only happy ones go to Google.
Automatic follow-up nudge
If a student doesn't respond to the first request, one polite reminder goes out a few days later. Then it stops — no nagging.
Private feedback inbox
Every low rating that didn't go to Google lands in your dashboard with its comment, so you can call the student back and fix the issue.
Conversion stats
See how many requests you've sent, how many students clicked through, and how many actually posted a review.
Bulk import past students
Upload a CSV of recent students and send a one-off request to all of them — a fast way to bank a wave of reviews.
What Software Like This Solves for Dance Schools
Generic CRMs treat a dance school like a tech startup. Bespoke booking software costs hundreds a month and barely touches reviews. Below are the four specific problems this software was built to fix.
Parents choose dance schools for their children — trust and safety are paramount
Adult beginners are self-conscious and need reassurance
You compete with every other after-school activity
Retention depends on the child enjoying the class, not the parent
Top-ranking dance schools typically have 20-60 Google reviews.
Why Dance Schools Need Review Software in the First Place
Parents choosing a dance school need to trust the teachers and the environment. Reviews about encouraging instructors, children's confidence growing, and well-organised performances reassure parents making the decision. Software solves the asking problem at scale — you can't do this by hand and run a business at the same time.
"dance classes near me"
Google shows the top three results for this search based heavily on review count, rating, and recency. Most clicks go to those three.
Trust signal
For a dance school, reviews are the first social proof potential students see — long before they ever talk to you.
Permanent asset
Reviews are an owned, permanent asset — unlike paid leads that stop the moment you stop paying.
Designed Around the Reality of Dance Work
From the busy week of a dance school juggling a children's dance classes and a adult ballet on the same day, to the slow weeks — the software pulls its weight in both.
children's dance classes
A student who's just had a children's dance classes from you is the easiest review you'll ever ask for — when the moment is right. The system catches that moment.
adult ballet
A student who's just had a adult ballet from you is the easiest review you'll ever ask for — when the moment is right. The system catches that moment.
street dance
A student who's just had a street dance from you is the easiest review you'll ever ask for — when the moment is right. The system catches that moment.
ballroom and latin
A student who's just had a ballroom and latin from you is the easiest review you'll ever ask for — when the moment is right. The system catches that moment.

Questions About the Software
What features does the software include for dance schools?+
SMS review requests, an automatic follow-up nudge, sentiment-gated routing (so unhappy students go to private feedback, not Google), a private feedback inbox, a stats dashboard showing requests sent and conversions, your existing Google reviews displayed in-app, and CSV bulk import. Nothing bolted on you'd never use.
Does it work on my phone?+
Yes — that's the point. The whole interface is built to be used between classs on a phone. Add a student in under 15 seconds.
What's the difference between this and free Google review request links?+
A static link doesn't get sent, doesn't filter unhappy students out, and doesn't tell you who hasn't reviewed yet. The software does all three.
Can I cancel anytime?+
Yes. Monthly rolling — cancel from the dashboard with one click. No retention calls, no contracts to wriggle out of.
Software that earns its keep — for dance schools.
No setup fees, no annual contracts, no per-seat pricing. Just the features that move your review count up and your admin down.
