You’d love to run something beyond your regular classes.

A seasonal workshop.
A half-day mini-retreat.
A beginner Pilates session.
A yoga and journaling afternoon.
A day event for the people who already love your work.

You can picture parts of it.

The room.
The theme.
The way people might feel afterwards.
Maybe even the Canva graphic.

You might have even found a venue you like, then immediately wondered if you’re being brave or just financially reckless.

But then the practical questions start.

  • Would people actually book this?

  • Is the idea specific enough?

  • What should I charge?

  • How many people would I need?

  • Should I book the venue first?

  • What if I only get two people?

  • What do I say when I’m testing interest?

  • Does “sounds lovely” mean anything, or is everyone just being polite?

Before you spend money on a room, props, catering or promotion, it helps to pause and check whether the idea is ready.

Not forever.
Not in a perfectionist spiral.
Just long enough to make a clearer decision.

This free guide will help you check:

  • what you’re actually offering

  • who the event is really for

  • whether the idea is specific enough

  • why someone would book now

  • whether the title is clear

  • what format makes sense

  • what it might need to cost

  • how many people you’d need

  • who you could test the idea with first

  • what would make it a yes, adjust or pause

You don’t need perfect answers.

You just need enough clarity to avoid booking a venue and hoping for the best.

This is for you if:

You’re a yoga or Pilates teacher with an event idea you keep coming back to.

You want to run a workshop, mini-retreat or day event, but you’re not sure if the idea is strong enough to sell.

You’ve started looking at venues, dates or prices, but feel a bit unsure about committing.

You don’t want to announce something, get no bookings, and then quietly pretend it was “postponed.”

You want to test the idea with real people before you spend money.

You want a simple place to start.
