Gyms And Yoga Studios + Mindbody
The AI receptionist for gyms and yoga studios that writes straight into Mindbody.
Trial-class enquiries die in voicemail. The convert rate from picked-up calls is 4x the missed-call rate.
How it works
Foan plugs into Mindbody so every call becomes structured data in the system you already use. No re-typing, no copy-paste, no "I'll add it later."
Why gyms and yoga studios miss calls.
Phone enquiries from new members convert at twice the rate of website visits. You can't answer them all from the floor.
It's a Monday lunchtime in January. Someone has decided this is the year. They search "yoga studio near me" and "gym near me" and start ringing. Your studio comes up first because you've got the highest reviews on the high street.
Your one staff member is teaching the lunchtime flow class. Phone is on silent in the back office. The caller leaves no voicemail. They ring the next studio, get a friendly chat, and sign up for a trial week before lunch is over. £79 a month, average member stays 18 months, plus the friend they'll bring in for buddy month. £1,400 of LTV gone to whoever picked up at 12.40pm.
Foan picks up while the class is in motion. Asks what they're looking for (yoga, strength, classes, personal training). Asks about experience level so the agent can recommend the right starter. Books the trial class straight into Mindbody or Glofox or Tula. Texts the new member their welcome pack while they're still on the phone.

Frequently asked
Does Foan really work for gyms and yoga studios using Mindbody?
Yes. Phone enquiries from new members convert at twice the rate of website visits. You can't answer them all from the floor. Foan answers calls live, qualifies them by asking the questions a gym or yoga studio would ask, and writes the outcome into your Mindbody automatically. There's nothing for you to copy across.
How does Foan + Mindbody compare to hiring a receptionist?
A part-time receptionist costs around £1,800/mo and only covers business hours. Foan picks up 24/7 in two seconds, never misses a call during peak, and starts at £199/mo. Everything ends up in Mindbody the same way a human assistant would log it — except instantly and without typos.
What if a caller asks a question Foan doesn't know the answer to?
Foan is configured with your business hours, services, prices and FAQs the moment it's set up — we scan your website automatically. For anything genuinely unknown, the agent admits it doesn't know, takes the caller's contact details, and pings you so you can ring back. Better than voicemail, every time.
How quickly can I get this live with Mindbody?
Under 10 minutes. Sign up, connect Mindbody via OAuth (one click), pick a UK phone number, point your existing business line at it. Foan starts answering on the next ring.
