Hooray Studio is a specialised academy management system created by academy owner Shih Yen, founder of Little Power MMA.

The system was developed through real-world experience running a busy combat sport and fitness academy. Over time it was carefully refined through hands-on use by the owner, coaches, and students, ensuring that every feature solves practical day-to-day challenges faced by academy operators.

At Hooray Studio, we believe technology should be simple, intuitive, and most importantly time- and cost-saving.

As Shih Yen explains:
“If there’s a program simple enough that even I can use it, anyone can use it. And if it saves me time and costs, it will help others too.”

Hooray Studio is designed to streamline the essential operations of running an academy, including:

• Branding and custom class creation
• Managing multiple membership types with flexible controls
• Tracking student status and expiry dates
• Voice notifications for welcoming students or warning of expired memberships
• Voice reminders for coaches to check attendance
• Administrator access levels and staff management
• Secure storage of agreements and documents
• Clear, organised historical records

Every feature was shaped by real academy needs and refined with purpose.

Hooray Studio is suitable for a wide range of training academies, including:

• Gyms and martial arts academies
• Music schools
• Yoga and fitness studios
• Dance schools
• Pottery studios
• Tutoring centres
• And many other similar organisations

Because we understand that starting a new academy can be challenging and expensive, Hooray Studio was built to be extremely easy to use and highly affordable, especially for start-ups.

Our goal is simple:
to make running your academy easier, clearer, and more efficient — so you can focus on what truly matters: teaching, growing, and thriving.
