My People

My People is your studio's address book: Students, Parents/Guardians, and, for studio owners, Instructors. Every instructor in the studio shares the same student and parent lists.

Students

Students lists everyone added to your studio or enrolled in a class or course, with how many parents each is linked to. Use the filter to show Active, Inactive, or All students. Inactive students were deleted by a parent or deleted their own account; their records are kept, but they can't sign in or be messaged.

Students are also added automatically when they enroll in one of your classes or courses, along with their linked parents.

Adding a student

1. Click Add student.
2. Enter the student's Name and, optionally, date of birth.
3. Choose how they'll sign in:
   • Student with their own login: enter their Email and Phone (with country code, like +15551234567).
   • Child managed by a parent: leave the email blank and link a parent or guardian.
4. Under Parent / guardian, search for a parent already in your studio, or fill in Or add a new parent / guardian. A linked student uses the parent's address.
5. Click Create student.

Student profiles

Open a student to see their tabs: Details, Lessons, Classes, Courses, Schedule, and Messages.

• Edit student updates their name, phone, date of birth, and address. The login email can't be changed here.
• Send set-password link emails them a link to choose a password. Copy set-password link copies it so you can share it another way. Links work once and expire after an hour.
• For a child without an email, send the set-password link to a linked parent from the Parents / Guardians panel.
• Instructor notes are private to your studio. Students and parents never see them.

Private schedules and lessons are covered in Individuals.

Parents and guardians

Parents/Guardians lists parents added to your studio or linked to enrolled students. To add one, click Add parent / guardian, enter their name and email, and optionally add a child under Linked student.

A parent profile has Details (with set-password links and notes), Students (their linked children), and Messages.

Who controls a child's login and messages?

Parents do. From the Students page in their Classroom, a parent can choose whether each child Can log in, and whether instructors can email or chat with them. If a parent turns messaging off, the child's Messages tab tells you and offers to message the parent instead.

Instructors (owners only)

Studio owners can bring other teachers into the studio from Instructors.

1. Under Invite by email, enter the teacher's email and click Invite.
2. They get an email with a link to accept. If they don't have an account yet, they sign up with that email first. Invites expire after 14 days.
3. You'll get an email when they join.

To skip the invite, click Add instructor and enter their name and email. This creates their account and adds them to your staff right away. Leave Email them a set-password link now checked, or send or copy a set-password link from their profile later. Add instructor only works for people who don't have an account yet; invite anyone who already does.

Each instructor keeps their own lessons, media, classes, and messages. To remove someone, choose Remove from studio from their menu. Their lessons, media, and courses stay with them.
