What is gymnastics gym registration software?

Gymnastics gym registration software is one system for running a gym's classes: scheduling recurring rec and level-based classes, team tracks, clinics, and camps; online registration and payments; waivers; rosters and attendance; and parent communication. It is the same category owners often call gymnastics class software or gymnastics studio software. Instead of spreadsheets, paper forms, and separate payment apps, everything lives in one place so owners and coaches spend less time on admin.

What is gymnastics class management software?

Gymnastics class management software covers the day-to-day work after families enroll: class and camp rosters, attendance, waitlists, capacity, coach visibility, gymnastics progressions, and parent messaging. Good gymnastics registration software and class management tools share one database so you are not reconciling spreadsheets with your billing system.

How do I run recreational gymnastics classes and competitive team programs in one registration system?

You set up separate programs for rec classes, team tracks, or clinics, each with its own sessions and rosters. Parents register and pay online for each program, and staff see schedules and rosters in one place instead of juggling spreadsheets and multiple tools.

What is the best gymnastics software for a small gym with open gym and summer camps?

The best gymnastics software for most small gyms covers recurring classes, camp sessions, online payments, parent accounts, waivers, and rosters in one system, without enterprise setup overhead. ProgramChamp™ is built for small-to-mid-sized gyms that want one workflow instead of piecing together calendars and forms.

Can parents register more than one child for different levels in one account?

Yes. ProgramChamp™ supports parent accounts with multiple children so families can manage siblings in different classes or teams and payments in one place.

How do I handle birthday parties or gym rentals without a second app?

ProgramChamp™ includes optional birthday and party-style booking so parents can reserve times and pay deposits online, and those events can sit on the same calendar workflow as your classes and camps.

Can I track gymnast progress and level readiness at my gym?

Yes. ProgramChamp includes gymnastics progressions: build your own levels and skills, or load optional editable starter templates for common rec tumbling progressions or event-based outlines. Coaches mark each gymnast not started, working on it, or mastered from the class roster. When every skill in a level is mastered, the system flags who is ready to move up. Families see progress in the parent portal, admins get a readiness overview, and you can export printable PDF reports. Templates are starting points you customize—they are not official governing-body skill charts.

How much does gymnastics gym software cost for a local gym with one location?

ProgramChamp™ is $69 per month with no per-student fees. Pricing is based on staff logins, not registrations, so enrollment can grow without per-child software costs.

I am tired of spreadsheets. How do I track who is enrolled in each gymnastics class?

Use class and camp rosters tied to online registration. When families enroll through your system, rosters and attendance stay in one place instead of copy-paste between sheets.

Does gymnastics class registration software support makeup classes when a student misses?

ProgramChamp™ supports attendance tracking, capacity and waitlists, and staff-managed enrollment when families need a makeup, alongside session billing and parent messaging. Guardian self-service reschedule applies to credit- and package-based lessons, not typical weekly rec group classes. Publish your makeup rules in your refund and cancellation policy so everyone works from the same written policy.

Is ProgramChamp™ a Jackrabbit Class or iClassPro alternative for gymnastics centers?

Many gyms compare ProgramChamp when they want a simpler day-to-day workflow. See the Jackrabbit Class alternative, iClassPro alternative, Sawyer alternative, and Class Manager alternatives pages for how ProgramChamp fits next to those platforms.

Can I list leotards and grips families should buy without adding them to checkout?

Yes. Add Required items on the program or session Details tab. List grips, leotards, or chalk families buy themselves, plus optional Amazon or retailer links. Families see What you'll need when they register and in their parent portal. The items are not billed at checkout. If your gym sells grip bags or uniforms at the front desk, add those as fees on Pricing instead.

Sound familiar?

Recreational classes, team tracks, tumbling or ninja add-ons, and summer camps all need different rosters, and keeping them straight is exhausting
Generic booking apps were not built for session-based gymnastics classes, waitlists, or skill-level placement
Too many tools for registration, payments, liability waivers, and parent messages
Coordinating instructors, open gym or drop-in blocks, and floor time across programs is a constant shuffle

Gymnastics gym registration software for rec, team, camps, and parties

Who this gymnastics studio software is for

ProgramChamp™ is built for gymnastics centers and youth gyms that run preschool gymnastics, recreational classes, competitive or pre-team tracks, tumbling, ninja or trampoline add-ons, and seasonal camps, and want one gymnastics registration software stack instead of spreadsheets, paper forms, and payment apps.

Owner-operated gyms that need online gymnastics registration and billing without enterprise complexity
Multi-coach gyms with ongoing classes plus seasonal camps, clinics, or school-break camps
Gyms tired of generic schedulers that do not match how gymnastics programs and levels are structured
Gyms that host birthday parties or gym rentals and want bookings, payments, and the calendar in the same place as classes and camps

Host birthday parties or gym rentals at your facility?

Many gymnastics centers offer gym birthday parties, obstacle or ninja-style parties, or private gym time. If that is part of your business, you should not need a second app just for party bookings.

ProgramChamp™ handles class and camp registration alongside birthday and party-style booking: parents can book online, you can collect deposits or full payment, and party events sit alongside your teaching schedule so staff are not chasing spreadsheets or a separate calendar.

You can also start internal-first: use a shareable party inquiry (embeddable) for leads, set each party package to inquiry-first, instant booking, or both, and convert inquiries to booked parties from the staff inbox. For private events with a custom window and quote, staff use Custom time and quote on Manual party, then send a payment request. Turn on public online checkout when Stripe Connect and published packages are ready.

Classes and camps stay the core. This is simply there for gyms that already (or want to) run parties without doubling admin work.

After a gym birthday party, the booking parent can leave a rating and optional comment in the parent portal. You can turn that on per party package. Details: post-party feedback on the birthday party booking guide.

Everything in one place

How it works

Already on Jackrabbit, iClassPro, Jumbula, or another system? Import your families first, or skip straight to setup if you are starting fresh.

Import your existing data

Send a standard export from your current software and we import guardians, participants, current enrollments, and years of history, plus medical and emergency notes. Map each old class name to a ProgramChamp™ session once and your gym is not starting from a blank screen.

Set Up Your Programs

Create your sessions in ProgramChamp™ (classes, camps, clinics) and match your export's class names during import. Imported enrollments land on the right sessions. You are not rebuilding rosters by hand.

Families Register

Parents sign up online, add their children, and pay. You get paid and manage everything in one place.

Coach & Manage

Rosters, attendance, gymnastics progressions, parties, payments, and communication all live in ProgramChamp. No more switching tools.

Simple, flat pricing

No per-student fees. Cancel anytime. Pricing is based on staff logins, not how many athletes enroll.

Rec, teams, camps, and parties

$69/month

No per-student fees. No hidden costs. Add coaches as you grow.

Thinking about switching? We move your data for you.

The hardest part of changing software isn’t learning a new screen. It’s moving years of families and enrollments without running two systems forever. ProgramChamp™ imports your gym’s data from your existing Jackrabbit, iClassPro, Jumbula, or Class Juggler export, so you start with your people already in place, not a blank screen. Read our checklist for switching gymnastics software without losing families

Your families and students come with you

Guardians, participants, and siblings import into the right household accounts, so parents aren’t recreated from scratch and your rosters look familiar on day one.

Years of enrollment history

Bring current enrollments and multiple years of class history across, along with medical and emergency notes, so you and your parents keep the record you’ve built.

Historical attendance from exports

When your old system can export roll-call or attendance reports, we import that history too, matched to the families and classes you bring over. It never affects live billing or capacity.

Autopay schedules without double billing

Import installment and autopay schedules as inert placeholders so staff see who owes what. Families add payment methods fresh in ProgramChamp™. We cannot move saved cards from Jackrabbit, iClassPro, or similar systems. Cutover tooling helps you avoid charging twice.

We can do it for you

Send us your standard roster, enrollment, attendance, and billing exports and we’ll run the migration and walk you through setup. No logins to your old system required.

Online payments require Stripe

ProgramChamp does not process credit cards or bank debits on your behalf. To accept online credit/debit card payments or US bank payments (ACH), you connect a Stripe account (Stripe Connect). Funds settle to your connected account; Stripe bills processing fees there, not on your ProgramChamp subscription.

Credit/debit cards

Rate: 2.9% + $0.30
Method: Credit/debit cards
Per: Successful charge

ACH Direct Debit

Rate: 0.8%
Method: ACH Direct Debit
Cap: $5.00

Example fees for the same charge amount

If a family pays the same amount, Stripe’s approximate processing fee and what you receive after the fee:

Example Stripe processing fees for credit/debit cards versus ACH Direct Debit at the same charge amounts
Charge amount	Credit/debit cards		ACH Direct Debit
Family pays	Stripe fee	You receive	Stripe fee	You receive
$100.00	$3.20	$96.80	$0.80	$99.20
$500.00	$14.80	$485.20	$4.00	$496.00
$1,000.00	$29.30	$970.70	$5.00 ($5.00 cap)	$995.00

Approximate fees per successful payment using 2.9% + $0.30 for cards and 0.8% for ACH Direct Debit ($5.00 cap per transaction). Actual Stripe invoices may vary slightly. ProgramChamp does not add processing fees on top of Stripe.

Credit/debit cards are typically 2.9% + $0.30 per successful charge. ACH Direct Debit is 0.8% per successful payment with a $5.00 cap per transaction. Bank payments take a few business days to clear.

Optional ACH tuition incentives let you offer a percent or fixed discount at checkout when families pay by US bank account (configure in Payment settings; card payments keep the standard amount). You can still record cash, check, Zelle, and Venmo in ProgramChamp without Stripe.

Questions gymnastics gym owners ask

What is gymnastics gym registration software?: Gymnastics gym registration software is one system for running a gym's classes: scheduling recurring rec and level-based classes, team tracks, clinics, and camps; online registration and payments; waivers; rosters and attendance; and parent communication. Owners often search for the same category as gymnastics class software or gymnastics studio software. Instead of spreadsheets, paper forms, and separate payment apps, everything lives in one place so owners and coaches spend less time on admin.
What is gymnastics class management software?: Gymnastics class management software covers rosters, attendance, waitlists, capacity, coach visibility, gymnastics progressions, and parent messaging after families enroll. When registration and class management share one system, you are not reconciling Google Sheets with your billing every week.
How do I run recreational gymnastics classes and competitive team programs in one registration system?: You set up separate programs for rec classes, team or pre-team tracks, and clinics. Parents use online gymnastics registration for each, and you see rosters and schedules in one place instead of one spreadsheet for team and another for rec.
What is the best gymnastics software for a small gym with open gym and summer camps?: The best gymnastics software for most small gyms covers recurring classes, summer camp sessions, online payments, liability waivers, parent accounts, and rosters in one workflow, without enterprise setup overhead. ProgramChamp™ is built for small-to-mid-sized gyms, not only for large franchises.
Can parents register more than one child for different levels in one account?: Yes. Parent accounts can include multiple children, which matters when siblings are in different classes or teams. That cuts duplicate forms and keeps guardian contact info consistent.
How do I handle gym birthday parties or rentals without a second app?: ProgramChamp™ includes birthday party booking software so families can reserve gym birthday parties, pay deposits, and you can keep those events on the same calendar workflow as your classes and camps. For many gyms, no separate party-only tool.

Can I track gymnast progress and level readiness at my gym?: Yes. ProgramChamp includes gymnastics progressions: build your own levels and skills, or load optional editable starter templates for common rec tumbling progressions or event-based outlines. Coaches mark each gymnast not started, working on it, or mastered from the class roster. When every skill in a level is mastered, the system flags who is ready to move up. Families see progress in the parent portal, admins get a readiness overview, and you can export printable PDF reports. Templates are starting points you customize—they are not official governing-body skill charts.
How much does gymnastics gym software cost for a local gym with one location?: ProgramChamp™ is $69/month with no per-student fees. Pricing is based on staff logins, not how many athletes enroll, so a growing enrollment does not automatically increase your software bill. Online payments require a connected Stripe account; see pricing for card and ACH fee details. Optional ACH tuition incentives let you offer a percent or fixed discount at checkout when families pay by US bank account (configure in Payment settings; card payments keep the standard amount).
I am tired of spreadsheets. How do I track who is enrolled in each gymnastics class?: When families enroll online, class rosters and camp rosters stay tied to your programs. You spend less time reconciling Google Sheets and more time on the floor.
Does gymnastics class registration software support makeup classes when a student misses?: ProgramChamp™ supports attendance tracking, capacity and waitlists, and staff-managed enrollment when families need a makeup, alongside session billing and parent messaging. Guardian self-service reschedule applies to credit- and package-based lessons, not typical weekly rec group classes.

Is ProgramChamp™ a Jackrabbit Class, Sawyer, or iClassPro alternative for my gymnastics center?: Many owners compare us when they want a simpler stack. Read our dedicated pages for a Jackrabbit Class alternative, iClassPro alternative, Sawyer alternative, or Class Manager alternatives, plus the broader gymnastics gym registration software. If you are mid-migration, start with our Jackrabbit and iClassPro migration checklist.
Can I list leotards and grips families should buy without adding them to checkout?: Yes. Add Required items on the program or session Details tab. List grips, leotards, or chalk families buy themselves, plus optional Amazon or retailer links. Families see What you'll need when they register and in their parent portal. The items are not billed at checkout. If your gym sells grip bags or uniforms at the front desk, add those as fees on Pricing instead.

Cheer and tumbling programs

Many gymnastics centers also run all-star cheer, tumbling classes, and short choreography clinics. Families need separate pathways for teams, novice tumbling, and school-break intensives while keeping guardian billing and emergency contacts in one household account.

Offering segmentation: publish teams, tumbling, and clinics separately so guardians enroll in the correct track.
Level tuition and fees: monthly tuition, annual registration, camp fees, and team charges can appear as separate checkout lines tied to each enrollment.
Coach-ready rosters: practice groups export participant contacts and emergency details.
Tryout and renewal windows: sessions can open or close on schedule for tryouts or returning athletes.
Tumbling progressions: Track tumbling progressions like back handspring or tuck, mark them from the roster, and flag athletes ready to move up. Optional editable starters help you set up rec tumbling levels faster. You customize everything for your gym.
