What Tula is
Tula is web-based business software for independent yoga studios and other class-based businesses. It manages payments, memberships, calendars, registrations, credits, attendance, and instructor scheduling across in-person, livestream, on-demand, and hybrid classes. Studios can attach broadcast links to events, add recorded audio or video to the calendar, and let students choose in-person or virtual attendance when registering. Customizable payment forms and embeddable calendars support class, event, and membership registration from a studio website. Electronic waivers can be signed online or in the studio, while stored waivers remain accessible. The system also offers substitute requests by text, targeted and automated emails, mobile student access, and role permissions for administrators, managers, desk staff, instructors, and students. On-demand recordings are included with every plan.
