4 Must-See Fitness Websites
August 1, 2023
First impressions make a difference, especially online. That’s why it’s so important your website catches the eye of prospective clients and showcases how your fitness business stands out from the rest.
As a web designer and Certified Mindbody Business Consultant, I’ve built dozens of effective studio websites. My top tips: start with an easy-to-navigate structure and uncluttered layout. From there, show potential and existing clients what you’re all about, and how you can help them reach their goals. Last, make it ridiculously easy to book your services online.
The following four websites do just that—and more.
Pilates Republic (Encinitas, CA)
With a bright and breezy vibe, Pilates Republic’s website mirrors it’s studio space and workouts, which are designed to both inspire and uplift.
Features to notice:
Rotating homepage highlighting $25 intro week with a button to buy it
Simple navigation with a “Schedule” button that stands out
Clear pricing options with “Buy Now” buttons that allow clients to purchase without ever leaving the website (thanks to Branded Web links)
