Make booking a first class feel easy and safe

Women choosing a studio want to feel welcome before they walk in. The site had to present the class formats clearly and make booking a trial class the obvious next step.

We organised in-studio, outdoor, at-home and online classes, shortened the path from interest to booking and conveyed an atmosphere of support, softness and safety - with the coach's personal brand at the centre.
