# An AI receptionist for yoga studios that answers during savasana

An AI receptionist for yoga studios answers the phone while your teachers are leading class. It explains your class schedule, levels and intro offers, answers questions about class packs and memberships, books private sessions into Google Calendar or Microsoft 365, and texts you a summary, so nobody has to leave the room mid-flow.

## Why yoga studios miss calls

- **A phone ringing during class:** Most small studios have one person teaching and nobody at the desk. A ringing phone in a quiet room is jarring, so it gets silenced, and new students with questions never hear back.
- **Beginners need reassurance:** New students ask which class is right for them, whether they need their own mat, what to wear and if hot yoga is safe for a first timer. Without answers, many never book the first class.
- **Schedule changes create confusion:** A sub teaches Tuesday, the Saturday class moves for a workshop, the studio closes for a holiday. Students call to check, and the questions arrive exactly when the teacher is on the mat.

## How does an AI receptionist help yoga studios bring in new students?

New students usually call with the same few questions: which class, what to bring and how much it costs. The AI answers them warmly from your website and notes, recommends classes based on your guidance for beginners and explains your intro offer. It points callers to where they reserve a spot and sends you their details, so a nervous first timer turns into a student on the mat. You can also have it mention anything special, like a community class or new student workshop.

## Can the AI answer class schedule questions?

Yes. It shares your regular schedule, levels and teachers from the information you give it. When something changes, like a sub, a holiday closure or a workshop that replaces a class, you update your notes and the AI tells callers right away. Students get an accurate answer without the teacher stepping out of class to give it. That matters most on snow days, holiday weekends and the week a teacher is away on retreat.

## Will the AI explain memberships and class packs?

It explains the options you offer, such as drop-in rates, class packs, unlimited memberships and how long packs are valid. It does not sell or charge for them. It tells callers how to buy, usually online or at the studio, and passes membership freeze or cancellation requests to you with the member’s details. Students hear the same clear terms every time, which helps avoid confusion over expired packs at the front desk.

## Can the AI book private yoga sessions?

Yes. If your teachers keep calendars in Google Calendar or Microsoft 365, the AI books private sessions with the right teacher and the caller’s goals, such as flexibility, prenatal practice or a first session one on one. For group class spots, it can point callers to the system you already use for reservations. Private clients often become your most loyal students, so every one of those calls deserves an answer instead of a voicemail.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can the AI reserve a spot in a group class?

The AI books appointments into Google Calendar or Microsoft 365. If you manage class reservations in another system, the AI answers schedule questions and tells callers where to reserve on your website instead of reserving the spot itself. Your summary still tells you who called.

### Will it recommend classes for beginners?

It recommends classes the way you tell it to. For example, you can say that first timers should start with Basics and avoid Power Flow. It follows your guidance rather than making its own suggestions. You can update that guidance whenever your schedule changes.

### Can the AI answer questions about hot yoga?

It shares what you give it, such as the room temperature, what to bring and how to prepare. For health questions, like whether hot yoga is safe during pregnancy, it suggests the caller check with their doctor and flags the question for you.

### Does it handle membership freezes?

It explains your freeze policy and takes the request with the member’s name and dates. It does not change billing. The summary goes to you or your studio manager to process. Members hear clearly what happens next and when the freeze takes effect.

### Is there a contract?

No. Vocenya plans are month to month with a 14-day free trial, and you can cancel any time. Plans start at $49 a month for 250 AI minutes. Calendar booking for private sessions is on the Growth plan at $249 a month.
