MotionHub

MotionHub is an all-in-one operating platform for fitness and movement studios, combining scheduling, memberships, payments, a website and a student app. It suits studios that want one system across classes, locations and digital member services, especially those moving from another platform. Its broad studio toolkit is compelling, but custom pricing and payment-processing costs make the buying decision dependent on your scale and budget.

Overview

MotionHub targets boutique fitness, dance, yoga, Pilates, martial arts, barre, spin, CrossFit, climbing and swim studios. The platform covers the daily flow from publishing a class to taking payment and tracking attendance. It can schedule across locations, manage instructors and capacity, and accept bookings for drop-ins, workshops, recurring classes and multi-week courses.

That breadth is its central advantage. A studio can combine memberships, attendance, a public-facing website and a branded student app rather than stitching together separate products. The trade-off is commercial clarity: the subscription is priced per location, but the amount and billing cycle require a quote.

Key features

Scheduling, booking and virtual classes

Class scheduling, online booking and multi-location management are core functions. Capacity and instructor controls are useful for studios with varied class formats, while support for workshops and courses goes beyond a simple appointment calendar. MotionHub says it can automatically create Zoom or Google Meet links for online and hybrid classes, with instructors able to start as hosts with one tap.

Memberships, payments and attendance

Subscriptions, class packs, automatic renewals and failed-payment recovery address recurring revenue without requiring manual follow-up. Customer payments go through the studio’s chosen provider, including Stripe, MercadoPago or PayPal, and MotionHub says it does not store full card details. Standard payment-processing charges are additional to the subscription. Digital waivers, attendance tracking and membership tools make the service more suitable for structured studios than for a basic booking page.

Website, app and insights

The built-in website provides real-time schedules, online booking, member-only pricing, gift cards, student login and custom domains. The branded mobile app supports student booking and progress tracking on Android and iOS. MotionHub also describes AI-generated, on-demand summaries covering retention risks, revenue opportunities and schedule recommendations, based only on studio data. Connecting third-party AI assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT is described through an MCP integration.

Migration and integrations

AI-assisted migration can move customers, classes, schedules and packs from Mindbody, Glofox, spreadsheets or other platforms. That is particularly valuable for an established studio changing systems, although the migration scope should be confirmed during a sales conversation. Virtual classes can use Zoom or Google Meet, and the payment setup remains tied to the provider the studio selects.

Pricing

MotionHub offers a free plan and a free trial, but the paid Studio subscription uses custom pricing per location. It includes unlimited staff, unlimited services, no per-booking fees and multi-location volume discounts. Standard payment processing is charged on top, so studios should budget for both the platform and transaction costs.

Unlimited staff and services make the subscription a better fit for growing teams or studios with extensive offerings than a seat-limited product. Conversely, a small single-location operation may find a quote harder to assess than a transparent monthly plan. The subscription page describes billing on its displayed cycle, while the amount and cycle are not supplied for this plan, so request both before committing.

Platforms

MotionHub supports Android, iOS and the web. The web presence covers the studio website and browser-based operations, while the branded mobile app gives students booking and progress-tracking access.

Who it's for

Choose MotionHub if you run one of the named studio types and want scheduling, recurring billing, attendance, waivers, a website and a student app in one account. It is especially suited to multi-location businesses, studios migrating from Mindbody or Glofox, and operators offering both in-person and hybrid classes.

It is less suitable when a small business needs a clearly published price, only basic appointments, or no branded digital experience. The custom quote and extra payment-processing cost require more sales diligence than a fixed-price booking tool.

Pros and cons

• Pros: One platform spans classes, memberships, payments, attendance, waivers, website and app functions.
• Pros: Unlimited staff and services, no per-booking fees and multi-location discounts support larger studio operations.
• Pros: Automated Zoom or Google Meet links and one-tap host starts simplify hybrid classes.
• Pros: AI-assisted migration can reduce the work of moving data from common studio systems or spreadsheets.
• Cons: The subscription price and billing cycle require a quote, making comparisons difficult.
• Cons: Standard payment processing is extra, so total costs rise with transaction volume.
• Cons: The free plan and trial are offered without stated caps here, so their practical fit needs confirmation.

Verdict

MotionHub is a strong choice for growing boutique and multi-location studios that want one operating system for classes, billing, digital channels and migration. Its main reason to choose it is the unusually broad combination of studio management, branded member experiences and hybrid-class support. Look elsewhere if you need an immediately comparable price, tightly defined low-cost limits, or only a simple appointment calendar.
