Booking system for studios & fitness

The booking system for pilates studios

Reformer classes book out fast. Every call you miss mid-session is a spot sold to someone at another studio.

Receptionist Good afternoon, Core Strength Studio. How can I help?
Customer Hi there. I'm looking to get back into training and lose some weight. I'd like to know more about what you offer.
Receptionist That's great. We'd love to help you get started. The best way to begin is with a free consultation with 1 of our trainers. No pressure at all. Just to relax chat about your goals. I've got Wednesday at 6 in the evening available if that works for you.
Customer Wednesday at 6 in the evening sounds perfect for me. That works really well with my schedule after work.
Receptionist Brilliant. That's that's all booked in. Can I just get your name and phone number?
Customer Tom Bradley, and my number is 07700 900452.
Receptionist Perfect, Tom. So I've got you down for Wednesday at 6 PM. I'll text you the studio address and all the details right away.
Customer Brilliant. Thank you so much for that.
Receptionist Thank thanks so much. Goodbye.
Customer Goodbye.

Why pilates studios lose work to the phone.

A reformer class is £15 to £20 and the spaces are few. A couple of unsold spots a day is real money over a month.

You are on the reformer, not the phone

You are teaching a full class and cannot stop to answer. The enquiry rings out and the spot goes unsold.

Small classes fill instantly

Reformer classes have very few spaces. subba books people into genuine free spots and runs a waitlist so nothing sits empty.

Passes and memberships recur

A class pass is repeat income. subba books the first class and helps convert a trial into a regular.

How subba helps

An online diary that fills itself.

Bookings that land in your diary

Customers pick a real free slot and book themselves in. No back and forth, no double bookings, it is in your calendar the moment they confirm.

Take the payment or a deposit

Collect a deposit or the full amount into your own Stripe at the point of booking. Fewer no-shows, and the money is yours the same day.

An AI receptionist on top

And when someone rings or messages instead of booking online, subba answers as a pilates studio, day and night, and books them in too. One system, every enquiry caught.

Reminders that cut no-shows

Automatic reminders by text and email before every appointment, with easy rescheduling, so your slots stay filled and your day runs to plan.

Your services, online

Customers pick, book and pay.

subba shows your real services and prices, offers only your genuine free slots, and books straight into your diary. Here is how a pilates studio setup might look.

Most services take a message. subba books the job.

A call answering service jots down a name and number and hands it back to you to chase. subba checks your diary, books the appointment, takes the deposit and sends the confirmation, all before you have put your tools down. For pilates studios, that is the difference between a lead and a booked job.

Questions

Pilates studio FAQs.

Can it manage small class spaces and waitlists?

Yes. subba books into your real free spots, never overfills a reformer class, and offers a waitlist place when it is full so cancellations get refilled.

Does it answer while I am teaching?

Always. Every class you teach, subba is answering enquiries and booking them in, so a missed call never becomes an empty spot.

How quickly can I get set up?

If you already have a website, subba plugs in with a one-line change and you can be live the same day. If you need a website, our Managed plan builds you a booking site and sets up your domain, usually live in about 5 working days.

What does it cost?

Plans start at £9.99 a month and every plan takes unlimited bookings. You only pay more as your enquiry volume grows. There is no setup fee unless you want us to build your website too, and you can cancel anytime.
