Here's what to look for and how it works in Boost.** 31 October 2026·4 min read·By The Boost Fitness Team ![Fitness class scheduling software for trainers and small studios](https://boostfitness.io/_vercel/image?url=%2Fblog%2Ffitness-class-scheduling-software.png&w=1536&q=80) Group classes, bootcamps and small-group PT let you earn more from each hour, but running them over WhatsApp gets messy. You lose track of who's coming, who's paid, whether there's space for one more and who's next if someone drops out. Fitness class scheduling software keeps track of all of that. This guide covers what to look for, what it costs and how group classes work in Boost Fitness. ## What fitness class scheduling software should do 1. Weekly and one-off classes, such as a regular Tuesday 6pm bootcamp plus the odd special session. 2. A set number of places, so classes never overfill. 3. Online booking and payment from your own website. 4. A waitlist that tells people when a place opens. 5. Class packages, like 10 classes for £80, so regulars don't pay every time. 6. A quick way to cancel a class or add places. 7. One diary for classes and your 1-to-1 sessions, so you're never double-booked. 8. A link to your coaching, so class members can get programmes, check-ins and messages from you too. Studio software like Mindbody or Glofox does most of this, but it's priced and built for gyms with front desks. Trainers and small studios usually want the same basics at a lower price. ## How group classes work in Boost Fitness ### Set up your classes Turn on bookings for a group course, then add class times. Each class can repeat weekly or run once, and has its own start time, length, number of places (up to 200) and price. Classes can be free or paid. ### People book from your website Visitors see your upcoming classes on your Boost website, with the places left in each. They pick a class, enter their details and pay by card through Stripe, with the money going to your own Stripe account. ### The waitlist When a class is full, people can join the waitlist. If a place opens because someone cancels, moves or you add places, everyone waiting gets an email straight away, and the first to book gets the place. ### Class packages Sell packages of classes, for example: - Bronze: 5 classes, use within 3 months - Silver: 10 classes, use within 6 months - Gold: unlimited classes for a month Each package can include 1 to 100 classes or unlimited, and can expire after 1, 3, 6 or 12 months, or never. One class comes off the package each time someone books. You can also sell monthly packages that renew by subscription and add a month of classes each time they're paid. ### Run the class Every class shows in the What's on list on your Clients page, with how many people are booked and waiting. You can change the number of places or cancel a class from there, and one diary covers classes and 1-to-1 bookings, so nobody can book a PT session on top of your bootcamp. ### Keep coaching after class Because classes live inside your coaching app, a class regular can also get a programme, check-ins, a food diary and messages from you. Some will go on to become 1-to-1 or online clients. ## What it costs Group classes and class packages are included on Boost Plus at £34.99 a month, with unlimited clients. 1-to-1 bookings are on every plan from £15.99. On paid bookings, Boost's platform fee is 3% on Plus and 1% on Pro, on top of Stripe's card fee. There's no per-booking or per-member charge, and the 30-day free trial needs no card. ## Free class scheduling software: is it enough? Free booking pages and Google Forms can work for one class a week. Once you add packages, a waitlist or payment, you end up checking three places to see who's coming, and matching payments to names takes longer than most people expect. ## Frequently asked questions ### What is the best class booking software for personal trainers? Look for online booking and payment, places, a waitlist and class packages, in the same app you coach in. Boost Fitness has these, along with your website and coaching tools. ### Can I sell class packs or memberships? Yes. On Boost Plus you can sell packages of 1 to 100 classes or unlimited, with an expiry if you want one, and monthly packages that renew by subscription. ### Can people join a waitlist? Yes. When a class is full, people can join the waitlist, and everyone waiting gets an email the moment a place opens. ### Can I run online classes as well as in-person ones? Yes. A group course can be online or in person, and you can run both. ## Key takeaways - Class scheduling software should handle places, online payment, a waitlist and packages. - Studio software is built and priced for gyms with front desks. - In Boost, classes, packages and the waitlist sit next to your 1-to-1 bookings and your coaching. - Group classes and packages are on Boost Plus, with unlimited clients. ## Start your free trial [**Start your free trial**](https://boostfitness.io/register) and put your class timetable on your own website, with booking and payment built in.
