Who it is for
One system. Gyms, studios, boxes and trainers.
The same system, set up differently. What changes between a 60-member yoga studio and a 600-member club is which parts you switch on.
Traditional gyms
The gym floor, and everything around it
Weights, cardio, a busy evening peak and a members' book that stopped being enough somewhere around 150 people.
- Check-in that handles 40 people in the 7pm hour
- Renewals that start when the last plan ends, not today
- Peak-hour data to roster staff against reality
- Off-peak plans that only admit before 4pm
Yoga & pilates studios
Where the class is the product
Smaller rooms, tighter capacity, and a timetable that matters more than the floor space.
- Capacity per room, enforced at booking
- Waiting lists that promote themselves when someone cancels
- Class packs sold as an allowance, not a membership
- Move one day's class without moving every Tuesday
CrossFit & functional boxes
Coaching in groups, tracked individually
Sessions rather than floor time, and members who expect to see what they lifted last week.
- Programmes written once, assigned to many
- Printed plans with a blank column for weights used
- Coach sees their own clients, nothing else
- Attendance by session, not by turnstile
Independent trainers
One person, many clients
No front desk, no reception — just packages, sessions and getting paid on time.
- PT packages with sessions, validity and expiry
- A session counts when you deliver it, never when it is booked
- Invoices and payment reminders over WhatsApp
- Programmes your clients can actually read
Multi-branch
More than one location
Every figure follows the branch you have selected. Switch to All Branches and the same screens show the group. Staff are pinned to their own branch on the server, so a stale session can never widen access.
Set up for the club you actually run.
Tell us what your week looks like and we will show you the version of Palestra that fits it.
