One Room for the Whole Floor
The solution brought booking, community, and Marquise himself into one place: students can book a class in seconds, post their own dance videos for feedback, comment on each other's progress, and message one another directly. Marquise has a direct hand in all of it too — commenting and coaching on individual videos, and posting his own thoughts to the group whenever something's on his mind.
Pink, Green, and On Purpose
The app was designed to feel eccentric on purpose — pinks and greens, a personality that refuses to look like a generic booking tool — because Marquise Mondays was never meant to feel generic either. Underneath that personality, the real goal is a genuine community for dancers of every skill level and every style, not just a faster way to reserve a spot in class.
“Marquise Mondays was never a booking problem. It was a community that had outgrown the tools holding it together.”
Micah Wells, Founder & Creative Director at L'Atelier
Built With the Dancers
Marquise Mondays now has a fully designed, prototyped app that finally matches the community it was built for — validated directly with the dancers who'll use it, not designed in a vacuum. It's currently headed toward real development, with the goal of turning this from a prototype into the actual home the community has been missing.
