Yoga Booking Software — No More Last-Minute WhatsApp Scramble
Your yoga class booking software — let students book private sessions and group classes 24/7, online or in person, without the last-minute WhatsApp scramble.
Why do yoga instructors lose students to booking friction?
Running privates and group classes by hand is a lot of small decisions a day. A student messages at midnight to book tomorrow's 7am, which leaves you no time to plan a sequence. Every online class needs a video link in the confirmation, and pasting one in by hand for each booking is time you should be spending on the teaching. Tymeslot handles it: separate booking types for privates and group classes, a video room created automatically for online sessions, and one booking link that drops straight into your Instagram bio.
Why mainstream booking tools miss the mark for independent yoga teachers
Calendly and Acuity have no concept of how a yoga teacher actually earns. A drop-in paying for one class, a returning student burning down a ten-class pass, and a member on a recurring monthly subscription should all move through the same booking page, but Calendly cannot tell them apart. Studio platforms like MindBody and Glofox go the other way: heavy systems built for multi-room studios with a reception desk, full of features a solo teacher will never touch and priced to match.
The gap shows up in revenue. Chasing fifteen or twenty euros for a drop-in after the class takes longer than the class did, and unpaid no-shows on a sixty or eighty euro private add up to several hundred euros a month for a busy teacher. A class pass you track in a spreadsheet always drifts out of sync sooner or later.
This is what Tymeslot is for. Drop-in fees clear at booking through Stripe, recurring memberships bill monthly on their own, and retreat deposits can be taken weeks ahead, all from one booking link that sits comfortably in an Instagram bio.
Everything Yoga Instructors need. Nothing they don't.

Common scheduling scenarios
How other Yoga Instructors use Tymeslot every day.
How do yoga instructors manage both private and group bookings at once?
Private sessions and group classes have completely different requirements — capacity, duration, prep time, and pricing. Trying to manage them from a single shared calendar or via DMs means conflicts, overbooking, and constant manual juggling. Tymeslot gives each booking type its own configuration while keeping everything visible in one place.
- Create a Private Session event type with 60-minute duration, 10-minute buffer, and a maximum of one booking per slot.
- Create a Group Class event type with 75-minute duration, a cap of 8 students, and a different availability window.
- Share separate booking links or embed both on your website and Instagram bio.
- View all upcoming sessions — private and group — in a single unified calendar.
How do yoga instructors handle last-minute bookings without losing prep time?
A booking that lands 30 minutes before class gives you no time to prepare a suitable sequence, set up the space, or confirm props. Minimum notice time settings prevent this without you having to monitor incoming bookings constantly.
- Set a minimum advance notice of 3–4 hours on your private session event type.
- Optionally set a longer notice window for group classes to allow you to plan sequences in advance.
- Students who try to book within the notice window see the next available slot instead.
- You receive booking notifications with enough lead time to prepare fully.
How do yoga instructors attract and convert new students online?
Instagram is often the first touchpoint for new students. If the journey from discovering your profile to booking a class involves DMs, waiting for a reply, and then another message to get the video link, many potential students simply don't follow through. A direct booking link in your bio removes all of that friction.
- Create an Intro Session event type — slightly longer than a standard private, with an intake question asking about experience and goals.
- Add your booking link to your Instagram bio and include it in story highlights.
- New students book and receive an automatic confirmation with the video room link.
- Review the intake response before the session so you arrive prepared.
