More than movement

Find classes you'll love.

Find classes that feel right for you, know what to expect before you walk in, and follow the instructors you love wherever they teach in Porto.

Built in Porto

Built with local instructors, studios and students—for the city we're proud to call home.

No memberships required

Explore freely, book when it suits you, and come back whenever you're ready. No monthly credits, no pressure.

Find what fits

Because choosing a class is about more than finding a slot on the schedule. We help you understand what every class is actually like before you book.

Reputation that's earned

Reviews come from students who booked that class, so badges reflect what people actually experienced.

Care, not just logistics

Recovering from an injury or working around something? You can privately let your instructor know before class. It's only stored with your consent, only the instructor teaching that class can see it, and it's deleted after the class.

Beyond the booking

Student Body is more than a place to find classes. It's where Porto discovers the people, stories, and community behind every class.

How it works

Know what you're walking into.

Every class tells you how it'll feel, who it's for, and what to expect—so you can choose with confidence.

What sets us apart

The details you actually care about.

Most class listings stop at the basics: "Vinyasa, 60 minutes, €18." But two classes called Vinyasa can feel completely different. One might be slower, with breathwork and a long savasana; another a fast, contemporary flow with barely a pause. Neither is better. So we ask instructors to tell you how their class feels, who it's ideal for (and who it might not be), and what to expect when you arrive.

Recommendations

The more you tell us, the better it gets.

Recommendations are based on what you've already shared with us: the classes you've booked, the instructors you follow, and the preferences you set. We don't make assumptions about you from things you haven't told us.

  • You'll know whyRecommendations tell you why you're seeing them.
  • There's always more to exploreIf there isn't a match nearby, we'll broaden your recommendations so you always have somewhere to start.
  • Room to be surprisedYou might usually take yoga, but try something completely different because an instructor you trust is teaching it. That's the kind of discovery we want to encourage.
  • Nobody can pay to be hereInstructors and studios can't pay for placement. And because we don't take a cut of bookings, we don't earn more by sending you to one class over another.

Built for a multilingual city

Read every class in your language.

Porto teaches in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. Student Body translates the class itself — the description, what to expect, who it's for, even the instructor's bio — right where you're reading it.

  • In their own wordsInstructors describe their classes in their own language. We translate on demand and always make it clear when you're reading a translation.
  • See the originalPrefer the original wording? It's always just a tap away.
  • Learn in your languageFilter for classes taught in English, Portuguese, or Spanish.
  • Something look off?Machine translation isn't perfect, especially with the way people describe movement. Flag a translation and we'll review it.

Questions

Students, start here.

Is Student Body free for students?

Student Body is free to use. Browsing, discovering, and booking classes doesn't cost a thing. If you book a paid class, you'll pay the price set by the instructor or studio.

Is this just another booking app?

No. Most booking tools are built around a venue or a transaction. Student Body is built around the instructor, so you can follow the people you love wherever they teach, and understand a class before you walk into the room.

Can instructors pay to show up higher in my results?

No. There's no sponsored placement or boosting. And because we don't take a cut of bookings, we don't earn more by sending you to one class over another. Results are ranked by what fits you best.

How do my feed and Discover work?

Your Home feed learns from what you save, follow, and attend, so it gets better over time. Discover is where you explore everything else—searching by location, class type, time, and more. Saving a class or following an instructor simply tells us you're interested, with no commitment to book.

Is my availability and data private?

Your individual availability is never shared. Instructors only ever see anonymous, aggregated availability—not your personal preferences. Availability helps sort and recommend classes, never hide them, and you can change what you share at any time.

Do you run ads or sell my data?

No. We don't run advertising, sell your data, or monetize your attention. We're here to get you into the room, not keep you on a screen.

What are booking and feedback like?

Booking is simple, and feedback is just as easy. Reserve your spot, add it to your calendar, then tell us how it went with a quick prompt after class. No star ratings—just feedback that helps us recommend better classes.

Where is Student Body available?

Right now, Porto. We'd love to grow to other cities, but the same way we started here: locally, getting to know the instructors and communities already there. The technology can scale, but the community should still feel local.

What kinds of classes are on Student Body?

Right now you'll mostly find yoga, Pilates, barre, cycling and sound healing. That reflects the community we've become part of in Porto, not a limit. We'd love to see everything from dance and strength to surfing, running clubs and martial arts. What connects them is a person at the center, teaching, guiding or bringing people together.
