“With our previous system, it was time for a change. I needed an app. I needed better reporting. And I needed support I could rely on.”

“Other than my lease payment, Zen Planner is my most invested business piece. It does so much behind the scenes like recurring payments, and it tracks my members’ workouts. It helps me keep everything running smoothly.”

See how Zen Planner replaces a one-size-fits-all platform with tools built specifically for how gyms and studios run.
Momence is a business management software built for class-based wellness studios including yoga, Pilates, and dance schools. It offers scheduling, point-of-sale, staff management, and automated marketing tools designed around drop-in class models.
Momence is designed for drop-in wellness studios rather than membership-driven gyms or martial arts schools. If your school runs on recurring memberships, belt progressions, and long-term student retention, Momence’s feature set is not aligned with how your business actually operates.
Zen Planner is built for gyms and martial arts schools that run on memberships and long-term student relationships. That means belt tracking, rank management, member retention tools, and digital marketing built for your business model. Momence is built for studios where students drop in and out. Those are fundamentally different businesses and the software reflects that.
Most schools and studios complete the switch from Momence to Zen Planner within a few weeks. Zen Planner’s onboarding team handles data migration and billing transfer so your revenue and member records carry over without gaps. See how we make switching to Zen Planner easy.
Zen Planner’s US-based onboarding team manages the full transition from Momence including data migration, staff training, and go-live support by phone and chat.
Gym and martial arts school owners who have tried Momence most commonly report that it lacks the membership management depth, belt tracking, and retention analytics their business needs. Beyond that, users frequently cite slow refund processing, inconsistent support, hidden fees, and login access issues tied to two-factor authentication. Zen Planner’s US-based support team is reachable by phone, not just a ticket queue.
Zen Planner is built for the full arc of running a martial arts school, from your first students through multi-location growth. That means belt tracking and rank management on day one, and digital marketing services, retention reporting, and a dedicated customer success team as your school scales. Most platforms give you tools to manage what you have. Zen Planner gives you tools to grow beyond it.
