︎ Where we were  A premier Iyengar yoga center in Beverly Hills faced challenges with member acquisition and retention.

︎Where we wanted to be
The studio aimed to attract dedicated yoga students who would commit long-term to Iyengar yoga, experience its benefits, advocate for it, and help build a thriving community.



︎How we got there To address these issues, we engaged with stakeholders at Namastday Yoga Center, including current and new members, regular and visiting teachers, and staff. This dialogue revealed that most new members were introduced through a coupon service, lacked familiarity with the Iyengar method, and sought immediate benefits.

We also discovered that regular members found it difficult to introduce others to the center and to participate in different classes due to the center’s complex and frequently changing schedule.

To tackle these challenges, we streamlined the studio’s teaching approach into a simple, two-tier system: 1: Foundational, and 2: Challenging. We then implemented a two-color coding system for the class calendar, making it straightforward for members to choose classes that matched their skill level and explore new options confidently. This coding system facilitated a complete overhaul of the class schedule, fostering a consistent, balanced monthly practice routine.

Further, we leveraged this new structure to enhance communications, creating detailed teacher profiles, class descriptions, and social media content for workshop events. This empowered students, teachers, and staff to actively engage in word-of-mouth marketing and increase participation.
