The Master Calendar is the operational cockpit of your fitness facility. Handling hundreds of weekly group classes, private personal training sessions, and room rentals requires speed, zero room collisions, and clear visual hierarchy.

Step 1: Switch Between Day, Week, Month & Agenda Views

Adapt your view to the task at hand. Day view is perfect for front desk check-in flow, while Week and Month views provide bird's-eye schedule management.

Step 2: Room Allocation & Collision Prevention

Every session is bound to a physical room (e.g. Reformer Studio A, Hot Yoga Bay, Private PT Suite). If an instructor attempts to book an overlapping session in the same room, GoLivWell instantly locks the time slot and alerts the scheduler.

Step 3: Filter by Instructor & Service Category

Isolate specific coach schedules to audit weekly shift hours, or filter by class category (HIIT, Reformer, Recovery) to evaluate timetable balance.

Step 4: Schedule Recurring Class Series

Avoid manual weekly data entry. Use the Recurring Series generator to repeat a class every Tuesday and Thursday at 09:00 AM indefinitely or through a set season end date.

Step 5: Universal Booking Composer

Clicking any open calendar slot launches the Universal Composer, allowing front desk staff to fast-book a walk-in member, reserve a spot, or record a point-of-sale payment in seconds.
