Running your own classes

Quorin turns classes on for a studio. Once it has, Classes appears in your menu, with Teachers and Students under it, and customers buy tickets on your studio’s public classes page.

Make a class public

1. In the booking form, under Who is this for?, choose The studio. A studio booking blocks the room for your own use, with no charge and no renter notifications.
2. Turn on Make this class public: the class editor opens once the booking is created. It is offered to admins, on a confirmed booking that starts in the future. For a single studio booking you already have, open it and choose Make this class public; a weekly series can only be made public when you book it.
3. Describe the class — Class title, Description, Category, Level, Taught in, Teacher, a cover image or video — set the tickets and the Spots, choose when sales open and stop, then press Publish, or Save draft to finish later.

A single booking makes one class; a weekly series makes one listing with a session on each date. The class follows its booking: changing the booking changes the class.

Before you can publish

• An admin accepts the organizer terms, under Classes › Terms. When the terms change, a banner asks for the new version before your next publish.
• A paid class needs a public phone number and email for your studio. Without them, Publish says so and links to where you add them.
• The title, and the description if the class has one, need a version in every language your studio offers.
• Your payment account must be able to take charges before paid tickets sell. You can publish before then; the editor says Set up payouts to sell paid tickets.

Tickets and spots

• Prices are all-in: what you set is what a customer pays. A Free class still takes a spot, with nothing to pay.
• Ticket price is one person at one class. A weekly series can also sell a Pass for the whole series, and Sells decides whether single tickets are sold beside it (Drop-ins and passes) or not (Passes only).
• Spots is how many people can attend each session. A full session shows Sold out on your public page; once every upcoming session is full, the class shows Sold out in Listings too.
• Sales open as soon as the class is published, or on a date you choose — never more than 60 days before the class (for a series, its first session). Sales stop when each session starts, or up to 24 hours before it.
• A price you change later applies to new registrations only: people already registered keep theirs.

Balance women and men

In the class editor, under Spots, an admin can turn on Balance women and men, change it or turn it off at any time, even after the class is published.

• Tolerance is how far a full class may lean to one side: 50/50, 55/45, 60/40, 65/35 or 70/30. Each choice shows the most one side can have and the rest, for the Spots you entered: with 10 spots, 60/40 reads “60/40 · 6 and 4”. A preview below says how many of the spots each side can have at most, and how far one side can be ahead while it fills.
• Checkout then asks Woman or Man for each spot, and refuses an order the balance has no room for. Walk-ins, and spots taken before you turned it on, count toward Spots only: the roster shows them as No side.
• Changing it — turning it on or off, or choosing another tolerance — restarts every checkout in progress for the class: everyone in one has to register again. A payment already going through when you save is refunded in full, automatically. Quorin gives back its fee and the tax on it; Stripe’s card fee is not returned.
• A balanced class has a waiting list for each date. A customer who finds the date full, or no room for their side, can join it from the class page or from checkout, for the spots and sides they want. When room opens, Quorin emails the first person in line whose whole order fits and holds the spots for them for 15 minutes to 4 hours, depending on how soon sales stop. If they don’t register in time, they leave the waiting list and the spots go to the next person in line they fit, or back on sale. Passes have no waiting list.
• Turning balancing off closes the class’s waiting lists, without telling the people on them.
• Each session’s roster shows every seat’s side (Woman, Man or No side), the seats taken per side, and the waiting list in counts: seats waiting, seats offered, and how many for each side, never who is waiting. Download CSV adds a Side column.
• Only the class’s organizer sees the sides: on your own classes, your admins and staff. On a class a renter sells in your rooms, only that renter sees them, not you.

Who does what

• Admins create, edit, publish and Unpublish classes. Unpublishing takes the class off your page and stops new sales; tickets already sold stay valid.
• Staff open Classes too: the next sessions under Up next, the Listings, the Teachers, the Students and each session’s roster, where they check people in. See Checking attendees in.
• The Ticket sales section, the organizer terms, refunds and messages to attendees are for admins only.
• Listings also shows the classes your renters sell in your rooms. Admins can take those off your page; see Classes from your renters.
• A teacher is a profile shown on a listing, not an account they sign in to.
