Zoom Classes

Zoom online fitness classes became mainstream when COVID-19 shut down Sport & Leisure. With in-person classes no longer being possible, fitness clubs and sport organizations started using Zoom to give interactive classes online. A Zoom Online Class aims to reproduce the in-person experience of a coach interacting with participants. Today the convenience of scheduling staff interviews on zoom, especially for organizations who need to hire many seasonal staff makes this feature invaluable.

Activity Messenger integrates Zoom and Amilia to help you set up and run Zoom Online Classes. Activity Messenger provides solutions to these pain points:

• Eliminates the manual process of creating Zoom meetings for dozens of classes a week.
• Automates sending the Zoom meetings to participants by SMS or email.
• Automates sending reminders before the class to avoid no-shows and refunds.
