While there are other scheduling platforms and ways to easily 'swap' classes, no one provides a one-stop-shop for managers to communicate, organize, and memorialize everything that happens in a GX department with ease and accuracy. GXP is a system developed for group fitness managers, by group fitness managers.

GroupEx PRO will enhance your communication in three ways:

1. GXP streamlines the communication process with your team. Instead of saving vital information for your weekly or bi-weekly email, you can simply create a notice about the information real time. One thought, one notice ... The way GXP is structured, communicating REAL TIME will not have to clog up your instructors’ inboxes. Instructors can engage with the system at a time that makes sense for them and never miss (or misplace) important information.
2. GXP cuts down on redundant and unnecessary emails from your instructors by allowing TWO-way communication. Instead of Reply All emails to say, "I got it", or responses to your email that become new threads, or you answering the same question to clarify your email to individual instructors ... GXP allows instructors to comment underneath the post and you modify, edit or answer in the comments box to keep communication lines clear without extra work for anyone.
3. GXP helps you ensure everyone is in the know. The "I Read It" button allows instructors to click after they’ve taken a look at what you have to say and you can quickly pull the "I Read It" list for each notice to ensure receipt. Instructors have a visual indicator of what they’ve reviewed and what needs to be read, and you have a list of instructors that have received your information. You also have the ability to check the last time your instructors logged into your account.

We do offer an open API, which your IT/web team can use to further customize the look and feel of your group fitness schedule on your website.

The GXP investment will vary from club to club based on your system needs and the number of instructors you will have using the system. Generally, we jump on a virtual meeting to provide an overview of the different levels of service to help you figure out which option would be best to suit your needs. Next, we determine how many potential users you would have and if monthly or yearly payments will work best for you. Discounts are provided for committing to yearly service and for higher quantities of users. As group fitness managers ourselves, we are extremely sensitive to the small budgets we often work with and try hard to keep our cost of service as low as we can while providing quality care.

We do not offer free trials for GXP, but we do offer extensive demos and walkthroughs of our system. GroupEx PRO has so many amazing features, but it’s hard to realize the full potential of the GXP system before a trial is over.

Yes! There are two ways to access GXP from your mobile device. GXP has a mobile view which is very user-friendly. Launch GXP from a browser on your device and instructors can read notices, request subs, enter class numbers and much more.

We also offer a free Instructor Tools App that provides many of the same features as the desktop version, including the ability to request subs, respond to subrequests, enter class numbers, read notices, and receive push notifications for urgent correspondence. We highly encourage GFMs to get all instructors to download the App for further ease of communication.

We are proud to integrate with a number of mobile app vendors, including Daxko Mobile, NetPulse, MobileFit, and MiGym, as well as electronic fitness center displays such as Reach Media.
