The studio
In the courtyard, second door on the right.
Linden House is not a storefront on the street. The first time, it helps to know where the passage is.

The studio opens 15 minutes before the first class and closes 15 minutes after the last. It stays open between classes — the hallway is a good place to wait, and there is tea.
Whether the doors are open right now is something this demo deliberately does not claim — only the finished website can, with the real hours of Linden House Yoga.
Finding us
Address
Linden House Yoga14 Linden Street, rear courtyardBurlington, VT 05401The passage is between number 14 and the flower shop; in the courtyard, the second door on the right. Covered racks for 20 bikes in the courtyard. By bus: routes 1 and 7 to Linden Street, four minutes on foot. We have no parking of our own — the street is resident permit only, the nearest open spaces are on the avenue.
On the finished website, tapping the map opens the visitor's own maps app. This demo deliberately loads nothing from third parties.

Just come by
You can look at the studio before your first class without booking anything. It is quietest on weekdays between 2 and 5 p.m.
How Awelior would approach this project
Linden House Yoga is invented — the way it is built is not. None of this is work delivered for a client. It is the shape we would give such a project — with the same depth, but without a client who would have to answer for it.
Where it starts
Linden House Yoga has two rooms off a back courtyard in the Old North End of Burlington, five teachers and three ways to practice: drop-in classes you join without booking, eight-week courses, and a back-care series for people with real limitations. Online there was a profile on a social network and a schedule as a PDF that had last been right in spring. The most common question at the desk was therefore not about yoga but about the schedule — and the second most common was whether a beginner is allowed into a drop-in class at all.
Decisions
The schedule is the second page, not the second to last
It sits directly behind the home page and is reachable from every button on it. Somebody looking for a studio is looking for a time that fits around work. Everything else is decided after that.
Every price is on the page, including the awkward ones
Single class, ten-class pass, monthly rate, course series — each with what it includes. A studio that names prices only on request loses exactly the people who are unsure whether this is for them.
The back-care series promises nothing
It describes what happens in the session, who teaches it, and that every pose comes with variations. What it does not do is claim an effect. Anyone in pain asks somebody who can look at them first — and the page says so.
The way into the courtyard is on the studio page
The entrance is at the back and cannot be seen from the street. Directions in words, not just a map crop: somebody arriving for the first time who spends five minutes searching walks late into a class that starts in silence.
Deliberately left outNo online payment and no customer account on the site. Passes and rates run through the desk and the member app; a second way to buy on the website would mean keeping the same pass balance in two places. No star ratings either: a studio with four teachers and a handful of regulars cannot produce a meaningful number from them, only one that looks like it.
What is in it
- Pages
- 5
- Content blocks
- 26
- Languages
- 4
Five pages covering the schedule, prices, teachers, workshops and how to find the place, in every language of the site. Navigation, switches and disclosures work; forms and booking buttons are laid out and do nothing.
How it would go on
One source for the schedule
The schedule on the website and the one in the app have to come from the same table. Two maintained schedules are worse than one, because nobody knows which is right.
Show who is covering
People fall ill and get covered — and for practitioners that matters, because many come for a particular teacher. It needs a route the desk can operate in two minutes.
Workshops with sign-up
A workshop is not a class: limited places, a deposit, often full. That is the next sensible build — and the first one that moves money.
