Appointment & Class Booking Software for Yoga and Pilates Studios

Class-capacity booking for yoga and Pilates studios: room limits, waitlists, class-pack tracking and no-show-reducing reminders, all from one calendar.

Yoga and Pilates studios don't run on single-slot appointments the way a salon chair does — a mat class has a room capacity, one instructor serves a dozen or more clients at once, and members book against a class pack or an unlimited membership rather than paying per visit. RevYoMe's booking calendar supports both models: private 1:1 sessions and capacity-limited group classes, on the same weekly timetable.

What makes class-based booking different from a single appointment?

A barbershop or salon appointment blocks one provider for one client. A yoga or Pilates class blocks one instructor and one room for many clients at once, up to a fixed capacity — say, 14 mats. Once the class fills, new bookings need a waitlist instead of a flat "fully booked" message, so a studio doesn't lose a sign-up the moment someone else cancels.

How capacity limits and waitlists work for a full class

Each class on the timetable carries a maximum headcount matching the room or equipment available — reformers for a Pilates studio, mats for a yoga room. When a class reaches that number, RevYoMe stops accepting new bookings and instead offers a waitlist spot. If a booked member cancels within the studio's cutoff window, the next person on the waitlist is notified automatically, so the spot doesn't sit empty.

Tracking class packs and unlimited memberships

Very few studio members pay per class. Most buy a 5- or 10-class pack, or an unlimited monthly membership. RevYoMe tracks remaining credits against a member's profile, so front-desk staff (or the member booking online) can see at a glance how many classes are left on a pack, rather than checking a separate spreadsheet or POS system. This sits alongside RevYoMe's existing loyalty and rewards tools, so a studio can still stamp or reward a member's visit on top of their class pack.

Reducing no-shows without punishing members

A single empty mat costs a studio less than a missed 1:1 salon appointment — but a no-show still means a waitlisted member missed out on a spot they wanted. Automated SMS, WhatsApp and email reminders ahead of class time cut casual no-shows, and studios that need stronger protection can require a small booking deposit for high-demand classes, refundable within a cancellation window. See our guide on reducing no-shows with appointment reminders for the reminder cadence that works best.

Setting up a studio timetable, step by step

  1. List your recurring weekly classes (e.g. Monday 7am Vinyasa, Wednesday 6pm Reformer Pilates) with instructor and room capacity.
  2. Set the price per drop-in class, and configure class-pack and membership options.
  3. Turn on waitlists for classes that regularly fill.
  4. Enable automated reminders 24 hours and 2 hours before class.
  5. Decide whether high-demand classes (a guest teacher workshop, for example) need a deposit.

Can one instructor teach multiple studio locations?

Yes — instructors and classes are set per location, so a studio with more than one room or branch keeps each timetable separate while managing everything from one account.

Do members need an app to book a class?

No. Members book from a web link or QR code — no app download required — and the same link shows remaining class-pack credits.

Can I run both private sessions and group classes?

Yes. A Pilates studio, for example, can offer group reformer classes alongside 1:1 sessions on the same calendar, each with its own capacity and pricing rules.
