Create a timed event
A timed event has a start and end time and sits in the week grid.1
Open the event modal
There are three ways to start:
- Click Create event at the top right of the calendar.
- Click an empty slot in the grid, and the modal opens with that time filled in.
- Click and drag across the grid to draw a time range, and the modal opens with that span filled in.

Fill in the details
Give the event a title and check the start and end times. The color dot sets how it looks on the grid. If it should repeat, pick a pattern from Repeat (see Set a repeat); if it’s a lesson or something you’ll charge for, turn that on now (see the toggles below).
3
Save
Click the check to save. The event appears on the grid right away.
Create an all-day event
An all-day event spans whole days and sits in the strip above the grid, useful for trips, holidays, or studio closures.1
Start a new event
Click Create event, or click and drag across the all-day strip at the
top of the grid to set the date range.
2
Turn on All day
Switch on All day. The time pickers disappear and the event becomes a
day-based block.
3
Set the span and save
For a single day, leave the dates as they are. For a multi-day block, set
the end date later than the start. Click the check to save.
Make it a lesson, or charge for it
Two toggles in the modal change what an event is. Set them when you create it.- Lesson (the book icon, Enable Lesson): attach students with the Add students picker. A lesson tracks attendance and notes, and needs at least one student to save. It turns on Payment at the same time, since lessons are usually billed: set the rate by typing an amount or picking a rate preset. Every student on the lesson is charged that rate when you mark attendance. See Run a lesson.
- Payment (the dollar icon, Enable Payment): charge for an event that isn’t a lesson, like a paid gig, a recital, or a workshop. Set a rate. Nothing bills automatically the way a lesson does; after saving, record the charge or the payment from the event itself. How billing works covers where that money shows up.
Decide up front whether an event is a lesson, a paid event, or neither. The Lesson and Payment toggles lock once the event is saved, so you can’t change them afterward.
Set a repeat
Any event, timed or all-day, can repeat. Pick a pattern from the Repeat dropdown when creating the event:FAQ

picker, then save.
