Describe your rooms, class styles and teachers. Netiva’s agent builds a studio site with a timetable students can book, a waitlist for full classes, teacher bios and paid workshop pages.
Build a website for a yoga and Pilates studio with two rooms: a heated room for 28 mats and a reformer room with eight machines. Keep teachers, class types and dated classes in collections. The schedule shows one week at a time, filtered by style, level and teacher, with spots left and cover notes. Students sign in to reserve a spot. When a class is full they join a waitlist, and if someone cancels, the first person waiting gets the spot and an email. Canceling within 12 hours of the start counts as a late cancel. Give each teacher a bio page, and sell workshop tickets with limited places that book the buyer onto every session.
Most studio timetables live in a graphic that goes stale the first time a teacher needs a sub. Students message to ask whether Thursday’s 6 p.m. flow still has room, which class suits a beginner and who is leading the weekend inversions workshop. A yoga studio website built with Netiva keeps teachers, class types and dated classes in collections. The schedule shows each class’s level, teacher and spots left. Students reserve a mat or join the waitlist, and every workshop gets its own page and checkout. Pilates and dance studios run reformer and drop-in classes the same way.
Every class on the schedule is a dated record linked to a class type and a teacher, so the week view, class pages and teacher pages all read from the same data.
Students sign in, reserve a mat or a reformer and see their upcoming classes. Each class has a capacity, and once it’s reached, new sign-ups go onto the waitlist in order.
Each teacher gets a page with a photo, bio, the styles they teach and their training, plus their upcoming classes pulled straight from the timetable.
Workshops, series and teacher trainings get their own pages with dates, what to bring and a ticket sold through the store. Ticket stock counts the places, and each sale is written as a booking on every session.
Netiva keeps your records in built-in collections. Here’s a starting structure — the agent adapts it to your prompt, and you can change it any time.
Everyone who teaches at the studio, with the bio and training students read before booking.
What you teach, described once and reused on every dated class.
Each dated class or workshop session, with who’s teaching it and how many places it has.
Every reservation and waitlist place, tied to the class it’s for.
Required field. Types are Netiva collection field types.
A typical first version. Ask the agent for more, or annotate the preview to change any of them.
The week’s classes by day, filtered by style, level, teacher and room, with spots left, sub notes and a book button on each class.
PublicWhat a class involves, its level and length, whether the room is heated, what to bring and the next dates it runs with their teachers.
PublicA teacher’s photo, bio, styles and training, an optional intro video and every class they teach in the coming weeks.
PublicSession dates and times, who’s leading, what’s included, places left from the ticket’s stock with a sold-out label, and a button that sends students to checkout.
PublicA student’s upcoming classes and waitlist places, with a cancel button that warns when the late-cancel window has started.
Signed-in usersSigned-in teachers see who’s booked and who’s waiting, with first-timers flagged, then mark each student attended or no-show after class.
Your teamTell Netiva how many rooms you have, how many mats or machines fit in each, which styles and levels you teach and your cancellation window. The agent drafts the collections, schedule and booking pages.
Add teachers and class types in the collection grid, then enter the coming weeks of classes. The collection assistant can draft descriptions and sessions for you to check before they go live.
Reserve a spot, fill a class to capacity, join the waitlist and cancel inside the late window. Annotate anything that looks wrong in the live preview and the agent fixes it.
Publish in one click, connect your domain and link the schedule from your social profiles. Checkpoints let you roll back if a timetable change for the new term breaks a page.

Evening classes fill most days. Students book from their phones and cancellations inside the 12-hour window are logged as late cancels. The owner reviews repeat no-shows before deciding whether to change the policy.
Capacity equals machines, so every class tops out at eight and the waitlist handles the rest. A three-class intro series is sold as one ticket, and each new client’s first class is flagged on the teacher’s roster.
Salsa, heels and contemporary drop-ins run all week, while a six-week choreography series ends in a showcase. The series has one page and one ticket, and its six sessions sit on the timetable next to the regular classes. One ticket fills a place on all six.
Reserving a spot isn’t a payment. A class booking holds the mat, and drop-ins are paid at the desk or drawn from a pack you sold as a store product. Only workshop and training tickets go through checkout, so decide which classes are worth selling that way.
A liability waiver is a legal document, so have yours written or reviewed for your state. The site can record acceptance on a student’s first booking; keep injury and health questions for the teacher, and remember that teachers sign in like students rather than holding a role.
Yoga Alliance RYT and RYS credentials depend on annual dues and continuing education, and NCPT Pilates certification is renewed with continuing education credits. List what teachers hold now, and call a training registered only while your RYS is active.
The app doesn’t charge a card on a schedule. Packs and tickets are one-off purchases through checkout, and anything billed every month rests on Netiva’s subscriptions and memberships features or on the billing you already run.
Yes. Students sign in with their own account, pick a class on the schedule and reserve a spot. The app counts bookings against the class capacity, shows how many places are left and lists each student’s upcoming classes on a my-bookings page. Netiva builds web apps that open in the phone’s browser, so there’s nothing for students to install.
New sign-ups join a waitlist in the order they arrive. When a booked student cancels, the app gives the place to the first person waiting and emails them the class details, so the front desk doesn’t have to call around. You decide whether waitlisted students move in automatically or have to confirm first, and the agent builds the rule you describe.
Class packs and intro offers can be sold as store products. Counting one down as a student books needs somewhere to hold the balance, so ask the agent for a students collection alongside these four, with each account’s remaining classes on it. Recurring monthly memberships use Netiva’s subscriptions and memberships features, available on the Business plan and up. If you already bill members in studio software, keep it and link to it, or call its API if the provider offers one.
Open the class in the collection grid and change the teacher or set the status to canceled; the schedule page then shows the change. Add a cover note if you want students to know whose class is being covered. You can also ask the agent to email everyone booked into a class whenever its teacher or status changes, so nobody travels to a class that isn’t running.
Yes. The structure is the same: class types, teachers, dated classes and bookings. A reformer studio sets each class’s capacity to the number of machines in the room, and a dance studio can use styles and levels such as beginner salsa or open-level contemporary. Rename any field, add a room or change the schedule filters by asking the agent.
You can build the site and test bookings in the live preview on the free plan. Connecting your own domain starts with the Starter plan. The number of store products depends on the plan you choose, and PayPal alongside Stripe comes with Pro and up. Compare the current plans on Netiva’s pricing page before you open ticket sales.
