One app for the studio timetable and the video library
Many yoga businesses now run three things side by side: a weekly studio timetable, a few livestreamed classes and a growing archive of recordings. The app joins them up. Students check the schedule, book or cancel a place, tap into a live class at its start time and browse recordings by style, level, length and teacher.
Video is the heavy part. Adaptive streaming switches quality to suit the connection instead of stalling mid-pose, and downloads let a student practise where there is no signal. Every recorded class carries captions for anyone practising with the sound low or who is deaf or hard of hearing.
Around the video sit a pose library with your own cues, sequences built from those poses, multi-week courses and teacher profiles. If the timetable matters more than video, compare our gym and studio booking apps.
Teachers and studios this suits
The feature list shifts with the size and shape of the business.
- Solo teachers working across hired halls who want students to follow them between venues.
- Studios with several rooms and a mixed in-person and livestream timetable.
- Teacher training schools delivering course modules beside practice videos.
- Retreat organisers sharing preparation material before and recordings afterwards.
- Pilates and barre studios with a similar class and membership model.
How we put a yoga app together
Audit existing recordings
We list your videos, their formats and the music in them, so nothing goes live that you lack the rights to stream.
Plan the library
Classes are tagged by style, level, duration, props and teacher, which drives search and filters.
Design a calm interface
Muted colour, generous spacing and controls large enough to tap from the mat, checked against contrast and text-size settings.
Set up streaming
We configure encoding, adaptive playback, downloads and live classes linked to timetable slots.
Add booking and memberships
Class passes, memberships and waitlists go in, then we test and submit to both stores.

Music, captions and careful wording
Recorded classes raise questions a gym app rarely meets. A licence covering music played in your studio may not cover music inside streamed video, so we flag every track early and suggest music cleared for online use where needed.
Automatic captions tend to mangle Sanskrit pose names and teaching cues, so we generate a first draft and the teacher checks it before release. Downloads can be set to stop playing when a membership lapses.
Class descriptions say what a session contains, such as a 30-minute slow flow using blocks, and make no health claims in the app or store listing. Audio-led relaxation content sits better in a meditation app build.
Frequently asked questions
Can we livestream a class and keep the recording?
Yes. A live class runs at its timetabled slot, and once it ends the recording can go to the on-demand library after the teacher reviews it. You decide whether recordings are open to all members or held back for a set period.
Can students download classes to watch offline?
Yes. Students download a class inside the app, where it is stored privately rather than in their photo gallery. Downloads can stop playing when membership ends, and the app manages storage so phones do not fill up with old classes.
Can the app sell studio class passes and video memberships together?
Usually, though they may need different payment routes. Passes for classes in the studio are real-world services. An on-demand video subscription is digital content, which generally goes through store billing. We map each product before we build.
Do we have to re-film our existing classes?
Rarely. Most recordings filmed on a decent camera or phone can be re-encoded for streaming. We check sound levels, framing and music rights, and tell you which classes are worth keeping and which might be better re-recorded.
Can each teacher manage their own classes?
Yes. Teachers get their own admin login to edit their profile, upload recordings, write class descriptions and see their bookings. Studio owners keep control of pricing, the timetable and which videos are published.
