Make the Switch

Three common fears. One shared result. Here is what's waiting for you on the other side of the switch.

A dedicated onboarding consultant. Free data migration. And a team that’s walked hundreds of studios through this exact moment.

The three reasons studios wait, and why they wish they hadn’t.

“The timing just isn’t right.”

Anytime is right when you have a process built for busy studios.

Your onboarding consultant owns the timeline so you don't have to. Most studios go live in six weeks—without ever losing focus on their day-to-day operations. You run your studio; we’ll run the switch.

“All of my worry was for nothing.”

“The process feels like too much.”

We migrate everything. And you don’t lift a finger.

Walla handles full studio data migration including member profiles, class histories, payment records, and credit cards via Stripe. Your staff easily learns the platform in hours, not months.

“Even credit cards got taken care of, without any issues.”

“How do I know this is the right?”

Built by someone who’s been in your shoes.

Rated 4.9/5 on Capterra. Walla was built by fitness industry experts who spent years growing studios before building the software they truly need. Our team doesn't just know your business; they’ve lived it.

“The only regret I have is that I didn’t switch sooner.”

Before you switch

Your pre-purchase checklist.

Get ready for your move to Walla. We’ve identified the essentials you’ll need to get started—and our team will be there to guide you through every step.

1

Document your current class schedule and pricing structure. Note your class types, time slots, membership plans, intro offers, and any seasonal pricing.

2

Export a list of your active members and their plan types. Your Walla migration team handles the data transfer, but having a clean snapshot makes the process smoother.

3

Gather your current integrations and tools. Make a list of any third-party tools you're using alongside your current software.

4

Identify your staff leads for training. Pick one or two team members who'll learn the platform first and help train the rest.

5

Plan a brief communication to your clients. A short email or in-studio announcement letting members know about the upgrade goes a long way.

6

Review your current contract terms. Check your existing software agreement for cancellation requirements or notice periods.
