Just a few weeks ago, Chris and I got back from a business conference in Florida that we have attended for the past several years. Our ultimate intention of attending these types of conferences is to come away with tangible ways we can make Body Language an even better place for you all to call your fitness and yoga home. Of course not as tangible as the brick and mortar changes that we have recently made, but important nonetheless more behind the scene changes aimed at improving everyone's BL experience.
First of all, as some of you have already experienced, a handful of our classes have recently exceeded our capacity, and although we have 80 plus classes/week we are aware that some of these classes are just students' favorites or offered at convenient times for many. So effective May 1st you will be able to sign in online and reserve your spot in advance. So if you're planning on coming to Power Pump on Friday morning and want to make sure there is a step for you, all you have to do is sign in online and students will be signed in at BL on a first come first serve basis with those signing in online at the top of the list. Watch for an email with more details.
Secondly, we wanted to give you a heads up that we purchased a new app and are in the process of customizing it for BL called Mind Body Engage. The app will make accessing our schedule and other BL information on our website much simpler and more user friendly. Stay tuned for an email postcard to let you know when it's available or look for a post on Body Language's Facebook page.
Which brings me to the third take home message from our conference which is amping up our social media program...
getting more of you connected to our BL Facebook page. We use our FB page to let you know about workshops, special events, retail sales, closings, abbreviated schedules and just as a ways to connect and support one another. We would love for you to help us in this endeavor by 1) liking our page if you haven't already and then 2) asking your friends to like us. (Simply go to our Body Language's facebook page...pan down under your friends in the middle of the page...click "see all" and then invite each of your friends to like Body Language.) We appreciate your help in spreading the word about BL!!
Lastly, we are getting smarter about how to reach more folks in the community through our website. Some of you may already be familiar with SEO's or Search Engine Optimization but basically it's just a way that makes it easier for someone who is looking online for a fitness or yoga home to find us. Google Analytics, Google Community, Google business, bounce rates... all new to us but excited to learn about and use to connect with more bodies in our community.
So just wanted you to know that we are always striving to improve Body Language and whether it's the obvious brick and mortar improvements we have recently made or the behind the scenes more technical advancements we have your best interest in mind and are always working to better your Body Language experience.
Thanks for your support and for being part of our Body Language family!!
