The main event
Browse & book a class
Tap Classes in the menu. Filter by Alexandria, Manly, or Special Classes if you're after something specific.
- Open a class to see the time, location and who's teaching it.
- If you already have an active pass, tap Book · Use Pass — it deducts one credit automatically.
- No pass yet? Tap Book · Casual to pay for just that one class, or More options ↓ if a longer session length is offered.
- You'll land on your dashboard showing You're booked! once payment goes through.
Save per-class
Buy a class pass
Tap Passes in the menu.
- Got a discount code? Type it into Enter code and tap Apply — do this before tapping Buy on a pass, not after. A code only discounts the purchase you make while it's applied; it can't be used retroactively on something you've already bought.
- Tap Buy under whichever pass suits you.
- Complete payment — you'll see a Purchase successful! popup with a button straight to Classes.
- Buying a pass doesn't book a class by itself — head to Classes and tap Book · Use Pass when you're ready.
Plans changed
Cancel a booking
From either your Dashboard or the Classes page, find the class you're booked into.

- Confirm — cancelling frees your spot and, if it's outside 24 hours of the class, returns your pass credit.
Practice anytime
Watch class videos
Tap Videos in the menu for the choreo library.

Worth knowing before you book
Cancellation policy
Class packages are non-refundable, and valid only for their stated duration unless BYLA approves an exception.
- Cancel at least 24 hours before class and your credit is returned.
- Cancel later than that, or don't show up, and the credit isn't refunded or rescheduled.
- Can't make it? You can transfer your spot to someone else — just let BYLA know who's coming in your place.

What to expect in your inbox
Emails from us
A few emails are sent automatically — none of them need any action from you, they're just there so you don't miss anything.
- Class reminder — about 12 hours before a class you're booked into, plus a push notification on your device if you've turned those on.
- "We miss you" — a friendly check-in if it's been 3+ weeks since your last class.
- Happy Birthday — a little something from us on your big day (make sure your birthday's set under My Profile — see section 9).
- Leave a review — after your first class, a request to leave us a quick review right in the app. The email links straight to your Dashboard to do it.
Stay in the loop

- Get an alert on this device for a new video, a message in chat, club news, or an upcoming class reminder, no need to have the app open.
- On iPhone, add BYLA to your home screen first (step 11 above) — Safari will then ask you to allow notifications the first time you turn it on.
