Yoga Instructors face unique challenges: Mindbody costs $139+/month and is built for yoga studios with employees. Managing private sessions, group classes, and online classes simultaneously. Class pass tracking — drop-in, 5-class, 10-class, monthly unlimited. Venue rental costs for teaching at gyms, community centers, and parks. On top of all that, Mindbody charges $219/month ($2,628/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median yoga instructor earns $42,000/year. Software at $2,628/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.
Your Yoga mats and props (blocks, straps, bolsters) is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.
Mindbody is just one piece. What else are you losing money on?

You teach 3 classes today — a morning vinyasa at a community center ($50 room rental), a private session at noon ($80/hour), and an evening yin class on Zoom. The morning class had 8 students — three on class passes, two drop-ins, and three monthly members. You need to track who paid, deduct class pass credits, and figure out if the community center class was profitable after room rental. Mindbody charges $139/month for a solo instructor. That's more than your room rental.
