A location is a place where your classes happen: a room in your studio, a gym or an outdoor spot. Every studio plan, Free included, lets you add as many locations as you need. Add them at Locations in your dashboard, set each room's operating hours, and choose a location for every class.
Rooms and venues
Add each room as its own location. If your studio has a reformer room and a mat room at the same address, add two locations of the type Studio, such as "Reformer room" and "Mat room". A gym you use, or a park where you teach in summer, is a location too.
Only locations of the type Studio show Rent out this space and Private sessions on their card, so add your rooms as Studio.
Adding a location
Open Locations
In your studio dashboard, go to Locations (under Operations in the sidebar) and click Add location.
Fill in the details
- Display name: what you and your clients call it, such as "Main studio" or "Mat room".
- Type: Studio, Gym or Outdoor.
- Place: search for the address and pick it from the list.
Save
Click Save. The location appears on your public studio page and in the class wizard.
Locations you added in the setup wizard are already on this page.
Operating hours
Each studio room is open from 6am to 10pm every day until you change it. To set a room's hours, click Rent out this space on its card (the link reads Space rental on. Edit terms once rentals are on). The Operating hours section at the bottom of that window works whether or not you rent the room out. Set the hours for each day or tick Closed, then click Save settings.
Operating hours set the limits for the room: sessions can't be scheduled outside them, instructors can only claim slots inside them, renters are limited to them, and they are the default window for private sessions.
No double-booked rooms
Two sessions can't overlap in the same room. If a new session or a slot an instructor claims would clash with something already scheduled there, it is blocked. Back-to-back sessions are fine, and cancelled sessions don't count. See Your instructor roster.
Renting out a room
You can rent a studio room to visiting teachers for a fee per session or per hour, paid by card straight to your Stripe account with no MoveMentors commission. Set the fee, who can rent and your house rules with Rent out this space on the room's card. Turning rentals on needs Stripe connected. See Renting out your space.
Private sessions in a room
Click Private sessions: off on a room's card to let the active instructors on your roster sell one-on-one sessions there. See Turning on private booking for a room.
Choosing a location for a class
When you create a class, the Location section asks you to Choose a location: pick one of your saved rooms, or choose A different venue and search for a one-off place. A class happens at one location, so if you run the same class in two rooms, create it once for each room.
The class editor doesn't change a class's location, so pick the right room when you create the class.
What students see
Your public studio page lists every location with its name and address.
Locations in different cities
Your locations can be in different cities. The studios directory lists your studio under the city of your Studio location (in Settings, then Business profile), not under the city of each location.
Removing a location
On Locations, click the bin icon on the location's card and confirm. Classes scheduled there stay live but no longer have a location, and the class editor can't add one back. Remove a location only when no upcoming classes use it.
You can't rename a location or change its address. To change one, add a new location and remove the old one once no upcoming classes use it.
Common questions
Is there a limit on locations? No. Every studio plan, Free included, lets you add as many locations and rooms as you need. See pricing.
Which address shows at the top of my studio page? The city and country of your Studio location, which you set in Settings, then Business profile.
Can different locations have different cancellation policies? No. Your studio has one cancellation policy for all its classes, chosen during setup. To change it, go to Settings, then Cancellation policy.
Can different locations have different teaching teams? Your instructor roster covers your whole studio, so an instructor can teach in any of your rooms. You decide who teaches each session: pick an employee when you create a class, or let active instructors claim open slots. See Your instructor roster.
