THE PROBLEM

A martial arts academy in Australia was paying monthly for a booking service that did more than they needed and less than they wanted, and kept their data on someone else server.

I built a plugin that runs the whole booking flow inside their own WordPress site.

HOW IT WORKS

  • Instructors manage class slots, capacity, and enrollments from a custom admin panel
  • Members book through a front end shortcode widget
  • Bookings check capacity so a class cannot oversell
  • Everything stays in the site database, under the client control

RESULTS

  • Dropped the monthly fee for an off the shelf booking service
  • Gave the academy a booking flow shaped around their own classes

WHAT I’D DO DIFFERENTLY

I would add a waitlist and a reminder email. When a class fills, a waitlist captures the demand, and a reminder the day before cuts no shows, both common asks for class based businesses.

Need a plugin like this?

I build custom WordPress and WooCommerce plugins that solve the exact problem off the shelf tools miss. Tell me what you are wrestling with.
