For Pilates instructors
A reformer class has as many places as you have reformers. Set the number, sell privates beside it, and let a beginners’ course be bought in one go.
Counted by the reformer
Places by the number of machines
A group session holds the number you set, and it comes off your page once it’s full.
A beginners’ course in one payment
Add the dates of a course, and a client buys a place at every class together, so week three isn’t a decision.
What gets in the way
Your reformer class holds four people, and your booking tool thinks it holds one.
New clients should have a private before they join a class, and they keep booking the class first.
A course of eight classes paid week by week is a course somebody stops after three.
Questions Pilates instructors ask
Should a new Pilates client start with a private session?
Usually, yes. One private lets you see how they move and set them up on the equipment before they’re in a class of strangers.
How many people should a reformer class have?
As many as you have reformers, and few enough that you can watch everyone’s alignment. Set the number once and the page stops at it.
Should Pilates classes be sold as a course?
For beginners, yes: a set number of weeks, paid once, with the same group. It gives people a date to start on and a reason to keep coming.
Your page on the first day
This is the therapy or practice setup, and it’s what your page starts with. Change any of it where it appears.
- Clients can book from 2 days ahead onward.
- Moving or canceling is free up to 48 hours before.
- There are 10 minutes clear after every session.
Your practice agreement opens with this: Sessions are 50 minutes. Reschedule or cancel up to 48 hours before at no charge; inside 48 hours the session is charged in full.
What it doesn’t do for you
There’s no class pass, no unlimited membership and no check-in at the door. Each class is booked and paid on its own, or as a course on set dates.
