Yoga, dance or fitness studio

A studio that sells classes: yoga, dance, spin, boxing or a circuit. Kila runs it exactly as it runs a gym, with the same front desk, members, plans, passes, classes and trainers. No demo business is a studio: Kasarani Fit Club’s yoga and Zumba classes show the same screens.

What is special

For a studio the class timetable is the day. These parts of Kila matter most:

• Class packs. A pack of class visits, such as Kasarani Fit Club’s 10-class pack, sold from the member’s page: see Sell a day pass or visit pack.
• Drop-ins. A class can have a drop-in price, for someone with no plan or pack that covers it: “take it at the desk”.
• Places and the waitlist. Each class has its places; when it is full, members join the waitlist and move up when someone cancels in time: Book a member onto a class.
• Attendance and no-shows. The instructor marks who came; no-shows can pause a member’s booking: Take attendance at a class.

Roles it starts with

The same as a gym: Kila’s standard roles, plus these:

• Front desk: Checks members in, signs them up with the waiver, sells passes and packs, takes renewals and books classes. Refunds and freezes beyond the plan go to approval.
• Trainer: Takes classes and personal training: their own diary and classes, attendance, assessments and the health questionnaire of the members they train.
• Gym manager: Runs the gym: plans and prices, the timetable, trainer, freezes and refunds, doors and lockers, and the reports.
• Membership consultant: Shows people round, signs up new members and sells memberships, passes and packs. No refunds or check-in rules.

What each one does, day by day: Front desk, Trainer, Gym manager and Membership consultant.
