Plus links in your library, a slim side menu, edit and delete in chat, and your own versions of Boost exercises.** 18 October 2026·11 min read·By The Boost Fitness Team ![Group classes with a waitlist, courses paid in instalments, and contracts clients sign online](https://boostfitness.io/_vercel/image?url=%2Fblog%2Fgroup-classes-instalments-signed-contracts.png&w=1536&q=80) This update is mostly about your website and the business side of coaching. You can now run group classes from your website, with a set number of places and a waitlist for when they fill up. Your site gets two new sections: Location, with a map and directions, and Text, for anything you want to say. Clients can pay for a one-off course in two or three monthly payments. And a new Contract block lets clients read and sign your coaching agreement online, with a signed PDF emailed to you both. There's a lot more besides, on your side and in your clients' app. ## Group classes, with a waitlist Last week's [**bookings**](https://boostfitness.io/blog/paid-bookings-analytics-who-needs-you) covered 1-to-1 sessions. Group courses now take bookings too. Open an online or in-person group course, go to its Bookings tab and turn on Let clients book classes. Add your class times under Class times. A class can run every week on a set day, or once on a date, and a one-date class can have its own name, like Outdoor special. Each one has a start time, a length from 5 minutes to 8 hours, between 1 and 200 places, and a price. Leave the price empty for a free class. A course can hold up to 20 class times. When a class is full, people can join the waitlist. That's on unless you turn it off. If a place opens up, everyone waiting gets an email and the first person to book takes it. Classes follow the same booking rules as your 1-to-1 sessions, and they block your diary, so nobody can book a 1-to-1 on top of one. In What's on, on your Clients page, each class shows once with how full it is, like 9/12 · 3 waiting, or Full. Open it to see who's booked and who's waiting. From there you can cancel and refund one person, change the number of places, or cancel the whole class. Cancelling a class refunds everyone in full, emails them and clears the waitlist. Editing a weekly class time only changes the classes nobody has booked yet, so anyone already booked keeps the time they picked. ## Clients can change or cancel their own bookings Clients can now move or cancel a 1-to-1 booking themselves, up to a cut-off you choose. Set it under Account > Configuration > Bookings, in Changes and reminders: 2, 12, 24 or 48 hours before, or Not online if you'd rather they contact you. It starts at 24 hours. Every confirmation email has a Change or cancel button. It opens a page on your site with no sign-in needed. Signed-in clients can also use Change time or Cancel booking on their Today screen. Moving keeps the price, and cancelling refunds a paid booking in full. You get an email and a notification either way, and the booking shows who moved or cancelled it. In the same place you can turn on a reminder email, 2 or 24 hours before each session, in your branding. That one starts at 24 hours too. ## The Location section: a map so clients can find you The new Location section shows where you train people. Type your address and Boost puts it on a map with a pin. Drag the pin to your exact door if the address lands it down the street. Pick a map style to suit your site: Streets, Light or Dark. The pin takes your website's colour. Add a Getting here note if people need it, like which entrance to use or where to park. Visitors get a Get directions button that opens Apple Maps or Google Maps on their phone. Clients with an in-person booking also get a Directions button on it in their app, so they don't have to hunt for the address on the day. ## The Text section: your own words, anywhere on your site The new Text section is for anything you want to say. Give it a heading if you like, then write with bold, italics, lists and links, set left or centred. Use it for your story, what to bring to a first session, your cancellation policy, or anything that doesn't fit the other sections. It works on every template and every plan. Add either section from your website editor like any other, then drag it where you want it. ## Let clients pay for a course in instalments A one-off course can now be paid in two or three monthly payments. Open the course, make sure Payment Type is Single Payment, and turn on Let clients pay in instalments under the price. The box beside it shows exactly what clients will see, like 3 monthly payments of £100. On your course page, clients choose to pay in full or in instalments before they go to checkout. The first payment is taken there and then, and one a month after that until it's paid off. Each payment lands in your Stripe account as it's made, the same as your other [**course sales**](https://boostfitness.io/blog/sell-and-assign-courses-to-clients). On the client's profile, the course shows Paying in 3 with how many payments are done and when the next is due, then Paid in full at the end. If a payment fails, Stripe tries again over the next few days and the course shows Payment missed. If it still fails after the last try, Boost ends the plan, the client loses access to the course and we let you know. Promo codes can't be used with instalments, because the discount would only come off the first payment. A course on sale is split at its sale price. Course pages got a refresh too. The top of the page now puts the details beside a 16:9 cover photo, and the full course description shows with all its formatting. ## Contracts your clients sign online Forms have a new Contract block, under Sign-off & notes. Give it a title, then write your contract or paste it in from Word or Google Docs. Headings, bold and lists come across with it, up to 30,000 characters. Underneath is the line your client ticks to agree. It starts as "I have read this contract and agree to its terms" and you can change it. Send the form to a client from its menu with Assign to client. Or attach it to a course under Client Forms and pick Required before training, so new buyers sign before they start. It works with your [**onboarding forms**](https://boostfitness.io/blog/client-onboarding-forms-questionnaires) like any other block. Your client reads it, types their full name, ticks the line and clicks Sign contract. Boost records the time, their IP address, their device and a fingerprint of the exact wording. Then you both get the signed PDF by email, and you can download it again any time from the client's Records tab. A signed contract can't be edited. If your terms change, duplicate the form, update the copy and send that one. ## Share links in your library Documents in your library is now called Resources, and it holds links as well as files. Click Add resource, pick Link, and give it a name and a web address. It might be a Google Drive folder, a YouTube playlist or a page you like. Then add it to any course from the Content tab, under Files and links. Pick it from your library, or paste a new link straight in. Clients with access find it in the Library in their app and tap Open. ## A slimmer menu on your laptop The side menu in your dashboard can now shrink to a narrow strip of icons, which gives the page beside it more room. Click the round arrow on the edge of the menu to switch between slim and full. In slim mode, hover over an icon to see its name, and a section's pages pop out beside it. Boost remembers your choice, and on smaller laptop screens it starts slim. ## Edit or delete a message you sent Spotted a typo after you hit send? In Chat, hover over your message and press the ⋯ beside it (on a phone it's always there). Choose Edit to change the words, and the message shows Edited next to the time. Or choose Delete, then Delete for everyone, and it reads "This message was deleted" for everyone in the chat. Any file in a deleted message goes with it. It works in client chats and groups, and your clients can do the same with their own messages. ## Make your own version of a Boost exercise If one of our exercises is nearly right for you, you can now change it. In Programs > Exercises, open the row menu on a Boost Fitness exercise and choose Customise. The editor opens with our details filled in, so you only change what you need, like the equipment or the instructions. Your version then takes our place in your library, the workout builder, the swap list and your clients' exercise search. Workouts you've already built keep the exercise they had, and your clients' previous weights and personal bests carry across both. Changed your mind? Choose Reset to Boost Fitness version. ## On your side - **Check-ins in programmes.** Click the plus on any day of a programme, choose Add Check-in and pick the questionnaire. Keep it to that week or repeat it every week. It reaches each client when it falls due. This works on every plan. - **A tidier client page.** The client workspace has been redrawn, with a summary down the side and each tab split into cards. Activity is grouped into This week, Last week and Earlier. - **Client view.** A new button on the client page shows their Today screen as they see it, in your branding. It's a preview, so nothing you tap changes anything. - **Change a whole workout at once.** Workout settings in the workout builder sets working sets, warm-ups, reps, effort or rest for every exercise in one go. Only what you change is applied, and one undo takes it back. - **Recent and Popular exercises.** With the search box empty, the exercise list in the workout builder opens on the exercises you used lately and the ones used most. Your clients' Add exercise list does the same. - **Assign a saved habit.** Saved Habits has an Assign button, so you can give one to a client without building a programme. - **Distance as a set type.** For runs, rows and carries, set a distance in metres, km or miles instead of reps from the menu above the sets. - **Export a calendar.** Open a client's full calendar and choose Export. Pick PDF or CSV, then this week, this month or up to 31 days of your choosing. The CSV has every set, with what the client logged next to the plan. - **Better on a phone.** Your Boost dashboard has a bar along the bottom on a phone, with up to four pages you choose plus Menu. Every list page (clients, programmes, workouts, meal plans, recipes, foods and more) now uses slim rows that fit the screen. - **Food search that forgives typos.** Search now copes with spelling slips, plurals, and UK and US spellings, and puts the common foods first. Foods show their picture and brand, and there are now more than 1,000 items from UK chains such as Greggs, Pret, Subway, Costa, Wagamama and PizzaExpress, taken from the chains' own published nutrition. - **Your website in search results.** Your site now has its own sitemap listing your home page, blog posts and courses. Pages get better titles and descriptions, and course pages carry the details Google uses to show courses. ## In your clients' app - **Their own notes on your workouts.** Clients can add a note to any exercise in a workout you set, even if you haven't let them edit the workout. - **A better workout logger.** A tappable rest timer chip, supersets clients can build themselves and drag as one card, and a quicker Add exercise list with pictures. - **More from finished workouts.** A ⋯ menu on a finished workout lets clients share it, save it as a routine, copy it to another day, edit it or delete it. Routines and Recent workouts get Copy, Edit and Delete too. - **kg or lb, and stones.** Clients can pick kg or lb for their exercise weights. Anyone on lb · in now weighs in stones and pounds. - **Smoother nutrition.** The Nutrition calendar opens in place. Barcode foods now save a proper serving, like 1 slice or 1 egg, where the pack says so. Rings and bars fill up as they appear. - **More counts as training.** Walks, classes and their own workouts now count towards Trained on their Progress page. Every activity has its own icon, and Strength training and Group class are on the list. - **UK-style dates** on check-ins, forms and support tickets. ## Fixes and polish - The Support replied notification now opens your ticket, rather than the help centre. - A check-in without enough data now says to keep the current goals. - Removing a file or link from a course now takes it out of clients' Library straight away. - When a client cancels or is refunded, their access to the course now ends too. - An unknown barcode now says it wasn't found, instead of showing an error. - A star or a comma in a search box no longer breaks the search. ## Key takeaways - **Group classes.** Weekly or one-off classes with places, prices and a waitlist that emails people when a place opens. - **Bookings clients can manage.** They change or cancel up to your cut-off, and get a reminder email before the session. - **Location and Text sections.** A map with a pin you can drag and a Get directions button, plus a section for your own words. - **Instalments.** Clients split a one-off course into two or three monthly payments, straight into your Stripe account. - **Contracts signed online.** A Contract block in your forms, with a signed PDF for you and your client. ## Ready to see it in action?
