Bringing classes, day retreats and online course bookings into one calm space.
The Yoga Effect offers group classes, private one-to-one sessions, corporate wellness programmes and day retreats in Burnham-on-Crouch, Essex. Students needed a clear, welcoming place to see class timetables, understand pricing and book onto 6-week courses or retreat days without back-and-forth messages.
Just as importantly, the website had to feel like an extension of the practice itself: warm, unhurried and inclusive for complete beginners and experienced practitioners alike.
A warm editorial WordPress site paired with a tailored WooCommerce store.
We designed the site around a soothing palette of dusty rose, serene mist blue, warm linen and espresso typography, paired with real studio photography and hand-drawn botanical and butterfly illustrations.
Using WooCommerce on WordPress, we built an integrated online shop where visitors can browse upcoming 6-week courses, Chair Yoga sessions and Chakra Awakening retreat days, see live availability and book their place online.
