Schedule appointments. Know everything
before they walk in.
Free appointment tools are great at filling 50-minute slots. Only Hone comes loaded with the client's injury history, modification notes, and the session log from last time — so every private session feels intentional, not improvised.
The appointment is easy. The preparation is what matters.
Calendly, Setmore, and Acuity are good at getting a client onto your calendar. None of them know that your 2pm has a lower back restriction, just finished their post-op return, or needs lighter spring settings on the short box series. Hone handles both: it books the appointment and builds the teaching context around it — client profiles, intake forms, session history, and AI-assisted class plans.
Appointment types. Your availability. Their booking.
Define appointment types with custom names, durations, fees, and required credits. Set availability windows per instructor per day. Clients self-book from your public page without back-and-forth.
Private sessions, duets, assessments — all handled in one place.
A booking page at your link.
Share a link or embed your booking page directly on your website. Clients see your available appointment types and open slots. New clients are prompted to complete your custom intake form before their first session.
No Calendly. No Acuity. Just your page.
Know exactly who's coming in.
Collect what you actually need before a first session — injury history, health conditions, goals, waivers. Answers flow directly into the client's profile so you're not re-asking the same questions six months later.
First sessions that feel like you've taught together for years.
Injury history, contraindications, health context.
Every client's profile holds their injury flags, pregnancy or postpartum status, per-exercise modification notes, and a full session history. It's surfaced before you teach — not after you've already placed the spring in the wrong position.
Every client feels known. Because they are.
A record of every appointment you've ever taught.
After each session, log what happened — which exercises, what modifications, what to focus on next time. The full history of your working relationship with every client, always at your fingertips.
When they ask 'can we do that thing from last time' — you'll find it in seconds.
Credit packs, memberships, and online payments.
Create credit packs or recurring membership plans clients can purchase on your booking page. Connect Stripe to accept card payments. Credits or membership visits deduct automatically when a session is booked.
Your payment workflow, handled before the client ever arrives.

Most instructors use a booking tool and a teaching tool. Hone handles both — so your appointment data and your client knowledge live in the same place.
“The slot is just logistics. What you do inside it is the craft. Free appointment tools handle the first part. Hone handles both.”
