Self-schedule a class

Some teachers allow you to book classes yourself. This guide explains how self-scheduling works.

Is self-scheduling available?

Your teacher controls whether you can self-schedule. If it’s enabled, you’ll see a Schedule a class button on your dashboard.

Requirements

Before you can self-schedule:

• Your teacher must enable the feature
• You typically need to have attended one class first
• Your teacher may require that you have enough balance or an active plan before booking

If you don’t see the option, self-scheduling may not be enabled for you.

Schedule a class

1. Find the Schedule a class button on your dashboard
2. View your teacher’s available times
3. Select a date and time that works for you
4. Choose the class duration (if options available)
5. Click Schedule to confirm

Available times

You’ll see your teacher’s available time slots:

• Green/available times can be booked
• Gray/unavailable times are taken or blocked
• Times show in your timezone

Booking window

Your teacher sets limits on when you can book:

• Minimum advance – How far ahead (e.g., 24 hours minimum)
• Maximum advance – How far into future (e.g., 14 days)

So you might see availability for the next 2 weeks but not same-day slots.

Booking limits

Your teacher may limit how many upcoming classes you can have:

• Common limit: 5 upcoming classes
• Once you reach the limit, complete a class to book more

If you see a message about limits, attend your scheduled classes first.

After booking

Once you book a class:

• It appears on your calendar
• Your teacher is notified
• The class is confirmed immediately
• You’ll see it in upcoming classes

Cancelling self-scheduled classes

If you need to cancel:

• Contact your teacher to request a cancellation
• Message your teacher as soon as possible
• They will cancel or reschedule for you

Note: Respect your teacher’s cancellation policy. Ask your teacher about any fees for cancellations within their notice period.

Not eligible yet?

If you see a message like “Complete one class first”:

This means your teacher requires you to attend at least one teacher-scheduled class before self-scheduling. This ensures:

• You’ve met your teacher
• You understand their teaching style
• You’re a good fit for self-scheduled classes

After completing your first class, self-scheduling should become available.

Tips for self-scheduling

Book in advance

Don’t wait until the last minute. Popular times fill up, and minimum advance requirements apply.

Be consistent

Try to book at similar times each week if you prefer routine.

Check your calendar first

Make sure the time slot works with your personal schedule before booking.

Have backup times in mind

If your preferred time isn’t available, be ready to choose an alternative.
