Music for yoga studios
Yoga studio music that moves as gently as the class
In a yoga class, music is part of the pacing. It settles people as they arrive, carries a steady flow through the practice and softens almost to nothing during the final relaxation. A sudden track change, a jump in volume or an advert pulls the whole room out of it.
Tunelay is designed for gradual change. Its calm moods favour long tracks with long crossfades, each part of the class can have its own mood on the studio schedule, and the teacher can pause or soften the music from the tablet without leaving the mat for long.
What disturbs a class
In a quiet room, everyone hears every small mistake in the music.
Abrupt endings and starts
Short tracks with hard endings create a moment of silence every few minutes, followed by a new start that breaks concentration.
The teacher becomes the DJ
Teachers prepare playlists on their phones, adjust the volume between poses and handle notifications in the middle of a class.
The wrong energy for the class
A slow restorative session and a dynamic vinyasa class get the same playlist because there’s no time to change it between them.
Reception noise leaks in
The front desk wants something brighter for people arriving, but it shares a speaker with the studio.

A class, scheduled
Moods follow the timetable. Here is an evening class; a morning session might start gentler still.
Arrivals & warm-up
Arrive
Quiet and welcoming while students roll out their mats.
Main practice
Flow
A steady pulse for the active part of the class, blended in with a long crossfade.
Cool-down
Final Rest
The music almost disappears for stretching and the final relaxation.
Between classes
Arrive
Light again for the changeover before the next class arrives.
Times are an example — you set your own.
How it fits
How yoga studios use Tunelay
The timetable is the schedule
Map warm-up, practice and cool-down to times in the weekly schedule. Different classes on different days can have their own shape.
Transitions you don’t notice
Set the crossfade for your calm playlists to the maximum of twelve seconds. Tracks blend into each other instead of stopping.
The teacher stays a teacher
If a class runs differently, the teacher can switch mood until the next scheduled change, lower the volume or pause — without unlocking settings or touching a phone.
Studio and reception apart
Pair a second player at reception with brighter moods and its own volume, so arrivals don’t disturb the class in progress.
Example scenarios
Illustrative situations to show how the product behaves — not customer stories.
A restorative class on Sunday
Sunday afternoon is slow and restorative. A weekly schedule block keeps the studio on Final Rest for the full hour, while weekdays follow the usual arc.
A workshop runs long
A Saturday workshop overruns by twenty minutes. The teacher switches back to Flow on the tablet; it stays until the next scheduled change, then the normal schedule continues.
Two studios, two rooms
A studio with a large hot room and a small quiet room pairs a player in each. Each room follows its own class timetable from the same dashboard.

Frequently asked questions
Can the music follow our class timetable?
Yes. The weekly schedule is set by day and time, so each class can have its own warm-up, practice and cool-down moods.
How smooth are the transitions?
You set the crossfade per playlist, up to twelve seconds, so moods and tracks blend gradually rather than stopping.
Can teachers change the music during class?
They can pause, adjust the volume within your limit or switch to another approved mood until the next scheduled change.
Will notifications or ads ever interrupt?
No. The player plays music only — no ads, and no phone notifications because it doesn’t run on a teacher’s phone.
