# How do I make a weekly class schedule video for my gym?

Updated: 2026-10-30

Use one fixed template and change only the classes and times each week. Open on the week's standout class, list three to five classes with day and time (spoken and on screen), add one beginner-friendly note, and end with how to book. Keep it to about 30 seconds in 9:16, post it at the same time every week (Sunday evening works for most gyms), and pin it so members always know where to look.

Key facts:
- A 6-scene Veedio video costs 15 credits with still images, so a year of weekly schedule videos fits easily on the Starter plan's 600 credits a month.
- Veedio can schedule posts to TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts with Auto-Mode.
- Veedio's Bold and Boxed caption styles keep class names and times readable with the sound off.
- Veedio narrates in 29 languages, so a bilingual gym can post the same schedule in English and Spanish.

## Example: this week at a small strength and conditioning studio (30s)

Runtime: about 30 seconds.

**Scene 1**
- Voiceover: New this week: a Saturday morning kettlebell basics class. Here's everything that's on.
- Visual: A row of kettlebells on a rubber floor in a bright studio with tall windows, early morning sun streaming in, slow dolly along the row, cinematic.
- On screen: This week · Nov 2-8

**Scene 2**
- Voiceover: Monday and Wednesday, six a.m.: Strength Foundations. Barbell basics, coached from your first rep.
- Visual: An empty squat rack with a barbell and plates loaded, chalk dust in a sunbeam, quiet early-morning studio.
- On screen: Mon + Wed · 6:00am · Strength Foundations

**Scene 3**
- Voiceover: Tuesday and Thursday, six thirty p.m.: Conditioning. Thirty-five minutes, rowers and sleds.
- Visual: Three rowing machines side by side in a dim evening studio, string lights overhead, a sled on turf in the background.
- On screen: Tue + Thu · 6:30pm · Conditioning

**Scene 4**
- Voiceover: Friday at noon: Mobility. Slower pace, no equipment experience needed.
- Visual: Foam rollers and yoga mats laid out in a calm, softly lit room, a plant in the corner, midday light.
- On screen: Fri · 12:00pm · Mobility

**Scene 5**
- Voiceover: And Saturday at nine: Kettlebell Basics. First time? Say so when you book and a coach will meet you at the door.
- Visual: A coach's hand offering a light kettlebell to someone, seen from the side, faces out of frame, warm morning light.
- On screen: Sat · 9:00am · Kettlebell Basics

**Scene 6**
- Voiceover: Book through the app or the link in our bio. See you this week.
- Visual: A phone on a gym bench showing a simple class booking screen, water bottle and towel beside it, shallow depth of field.
- On screen: Book: link in bio

## The reusable template: what changes and what stays

Keep the fixed parts identical every week so the series reads as one recognisable post.

| Part | Changes weekly? | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Opening line | Yes | Lead with what's new or special: a new class, a guest coach, a holiday change |
| Date range on screen | Yes | Use the format your members use: 'Nov 2-8' in the US, '2-8 Nov' in the UK and Australia |
| Class lines (3-5) | Yes | Day, time, class name, one short description. Group repeat classes ('Mon + Wed') |
| Beginner note | Sometimes | One reassurance line, attached to the most beginner-friendly class |
| Booking line | No | Same words every week |
| Voice, captions, music, style | No | Same settings every week; they become your gym's sound |

## The 10-minute Sunday routine

1. **Copy the week from your booking system** — Export or copy next week's classes from your scheduling software. Work from that, not from memory, so the video matches what members can actually book.
2. **Pick the opening line** — Choose the one thing that's different this week. If nothing is, lead with the most popular class or the one with spare spots.
3. **Paste into last week's script** — Duplicate last week's script and replace only the date range, class lines and opener. Read the times aloud once to catch am/pm mistakes.
4. **Render and check every time on screen** — Compare each on-screen time with the booking system. A wrong time on a schedule video costs more goodwill than skipping a week.
5. **Schedule and pin** — Schedule it for Sunday evening with Auto-Mode or your platform's scheduler, then pin it to your profile and replace last week's pin.
6. **Share it to stories** — Repost to Instagram and Facebook stories on Monday morning with a booking link sticker, when members are planning their week.

> **Note:** Accuracy beats polish. If a class is cancelled after you post, add a correction comment and a story the same day. Only say 'two spots left' if your booking system shows it. Illustrated scenes are fine for a schedule, but don't present them as your actual studio or members; a real photo of your space can open the video instead.

## Variations on the schedule video

- Single-class spotlight: one class, 30 seconds, what happens in it minute by minute, who it's for. Good for a class that needs filling.
- New class launch: open on the class name and start date, explain the format, and end with the first session's booking link.
- Holiday hours: a 15-20 second version listing only the changed days. Post it a week ahead and again the day before.
- Multiple locations: one video per location rather than one long list; members only care about theirs.
- Bilingual gyms: render the same script in Spanish (or any of Veedio's 29 languages) and post both, rather than mixing languages in one video.
- Kids or teen classes: describe the class and ages, keep visuals generic, and never show identifiable children without parents' written consent.

## Opening lines for schedule weeks with nothing new

- Five classes, one week. Pick two.
- If you've been meaning to try a class, this is the week's easiest one to start with.
- Early bird or after work? Here's what's on at both ends of the day.
- Our Thursday conditioning class has room this week. Here's the full schedule.
- Plan your week in thirty seconds.

## FAQ

### When should a gym post its weekly class schedule?

Sunday evening suits most gyms, because that's when members plan their week. Repost to stories on Monday morning. Whatever time you choose, keep it the same every week.

### How many classes should a schedule video list?

Three to five lines fit in 30 seconds, grouping repeat classes ('Mon + Wed, 6am'). If you run thirty classes a week, list the highlights and send people to the booking app for the rest.

### Should the schedule video be a Reel or a post?

Make it a 9:16 Reel or Short so it can reach non-followers, then pin it to your profile. A 1:1 version also works as a Facebook page post for members who don't use Instagram.

### Can I reuse the same video template every week?

Yes, and you should. Duplicate last week's script and change only the date, classes and opener. Consistent voice, captions and music make the post recognisable in the feed.

### What if a class time changes after I post?

Correct it the same day: a pinned comment, a story, and if it's a big change, a short correction video. Members who turn up to a cancelled class remember it.

### How much does a weekly schedule video cost on Veedio?

A 6-scene schedule video with still images is 15 credits, about 60 a month for weekly posts, well inside the Starter plan's 600 monthly credits ($19/mo). Every full video needs a paid plan; the first payment has a 7-day money-back guarantee.
