Setting up your studio
Start your studio from our website, then the set-up wizard: your brand colour, rooms and beds, classes, instructors, opening timetable and booking policies.
Help centre · Getting started
Your first hour with Joul: sign in, set up your studio, draw your room, add what you sell and invite your team.
Sign in with your work email. We email you a 6-digit code and a sign-in link, both valid for 10 minutes and usable once. There are no passwords to remember.
Owners and admins then set up two-factor sign-in with an authenticator app on their phone. It takes a minute, and it is required because these roles can see and change everything.
Open Settings (owners and admins) and work down the sections:
In Rooms & beds, add a room as rows of beds, then lay it out as clients will see it, with every reformer where it really stands. Drag beds to move them (they snap to the grid), nudge them with the arrow keys and press R to rotate. The editor won’t save two beds on top of each other.
In Products, add your intro offer, class packs, drop-ins and memberships, with prices including VAT. Promo codes live there too. Clients buy on your studio site and pay at the studio: the front desk marks the order paid in Orders, and the credits arrive.
Online card payments are coming. Until then, everything is paid at the studio (cash, card terminal or bank transfer) and recorded in the dashboard.
The set-up wizard adds your class types and your opening timetable: weekly classes on the days you choose, for up to 12 weeks. A Classes page for editing class types later is coming. You can add a one-off or tentative class at any time from Schedule → Add a class.
In Team, invite people by email as an admin, instructor or front desk. The invite link works for 7 days. Instructors see their own classes; the front desk sees every class, roster and client, but not settings, the team or health forms.
Import clients, their remaining credits and future bookings from your current system in Settings → Import and export. You see a dry run before anything is saved, and nothing is emailed to clients. Migration is free, and we are happy to do it with you.
Pair an iPad (or another tablet) as your front-desk kiosk: open the kiosk on it and pair it with a staff sign-in. Clients scan the QR code from their booking, or find their name. Settings → Check-in and kiosk sets when check-in opens and lists your paired kiosks.
Start your studio from our website, then the set-up wizard: your brand colour, rooms and beds, classes, instructors, opening timetable and booking policies.
Move clients, their remaining credits and future bookings in from your current system with a CSV file, checked in a dry run before anything is saved.
How clients pick their exact reformer, what each bed on the map means, how auto-assign chooses, and how to keep the map true to your room.
Email [email protected] and a person replies, Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm UK time. Tell us your studio’s name and what you were trying to do.
