### Who It’s For

Yoga studios of any size — offering **group classes**, **private sessions**, **instructor-led personal training**, **workshops**, or **multi-day programmes**.

***

### Key Challenges & Needs

* Managing recurring classes and one-to-one sessions at the same time
* Coordinating instructors and shared studio rooms
* Handling memberships, class packs, and drop-ins
* Reducing late cancellations and no-shows
* Keeping schedules synced across instructors, rooms, and events

***

## Recommended Oskar Setup

### **1. Add your instructors and studio rooms**

Create your people and spaces under\
**Left Menu → MANAGE → Resources**.

Add:

* **Studio spaces** (e.g., “Main Studio”, “Hot Yoga Room”)
* **Instructors** (e.g., “Anna”, “Marcus”)

Group them by type (e.g., “Rooms”, “Instructors”) for easy filtering.

> Note: Instructors are added exactly like other resources — Oskar will manage their availability and block times automatically.

***

### **2. Create your private sessions (1:1 yoga / personal training)**

Go to\
**Services**\
and create offerings such as:

* “Private Yoga Session – 60min”
* “Personal Training – 90min”
* “Yoga Therapy Consultation”

Assign an instructor and (optionally) a room.\
Set duration, price, and optional extras (e.g., mat rental).

***

### **3. Schedule your group classes**

Use\
**Events & Classes**\
to create repeating or one-time classes, e.g.:

* “Vinyasa Morning Flow — Weekly”
* “Yin Yoga — Tuesday 7 PM”
* “Prenatal Yoga — 8-Week Series”
* “Full Moon Sound Bath — Special Event”

You can:

* Create recurring events (up to 100 occurrences)
* Set capacity
* Enable waitlists
* Assign an instructor and room

Clients book directly on the class/event page.

***

### 4. Enable payments for your classes and private sessions

In\
**Organization Menu → Settings → Payment & Checkout**,\
you can activate payments for your yoga studio.

Once payments are enabled:

* You can accept **online payments** via Stripe (recommended).
* If Stripe is not connected, **offline payments** (cash/bank transfer) are used automatically.
* Each **Service** and **Event** can be set to require payment or be free.
* You can add optional **extras** to services (e.g., mat rental, towel service).

Online payments are secure and PCI-compliant.\
You can issue refunds or review transactions in\
**Left Menu → MANAGE → Orders**.

***

### **5. Reduce no-shows automatically**

Enable:

* **Reminders** (per service/event) via\
  **Service Settings → Notifications**
* **Cancellation windows** via\
  **Payment & Checkout** inside each service or event
* **QR check-ins** for class attendance tracking

These tools help maintain smooth operations and fewer empty mats.

***

### **6. Collect participant details**

Use:

* **Custom Fields** for general studio needs
* **Intake Forms** for class- or service-specific questions\
  (e.g. experience level, injuries, preferred intensity)

Captured data appears in the booking and the customer profile.

***

### **7. Share and promote your booking page**

Open\
**Booking Page → View Booking Page**\
and share your link via:
