A Jackrabbit Music alternative for private lesson teachers

Jackrabbit Music runs on Jackrabbit Class, class management software for youth activity centers: dance studios, swim schools, gyms and music schools. Pricing starts at $49 a month and is tiered by your total student count at the end of each month, so the bill rises as your studio grows. DuetStudio is built for private lesson teachers and small studios. It is free for unlimited students, never charges more as you add students, and never takes a cut of what families pay you. Pro is $12 a month.
