Type: Small Business / Gym on Wheels

Location: Vienna, Virginia (VA)

Company Background and Goals:

The Big Red Gym Bus is a gym on wheels that offers gymnastics programs for children (ages 2-6) in daycares. The “gym” is a converted school bus with carpeted and padded floors and walls, special heating and air conditioning, and a stereo sound system. They are able to take the gym to the school, which offers great convenience for the daycare facility. Their goals for the site were:

  • Encourage parents to sign-up their children for the classes and provide parents information on their fitness program.
  • Provide the ability for parents to easily enroll and pay for classes online.
  • Provide up-to-date information to the current parents the schedule, weather-related cancellations, etc.
  • Encourage client-schools and their parent corporations to include LIFE Gymnastics in their core fitness and physical development educational program.

Katalyst Role:

We worked with the Big Red Gym Bus to develop the navigation structure and website design that met their goals and objectives. We implemented the Joomla content management system, which allowed their staff to easily update their content, schedules and cancellation notices. We also created an online payment capability, which allows parents to enroll their children and pay for their semester online.

  • Content Management System
  • Secure Online Payment & Enrollment
  • Custom Website Design
  • Parent / School Private Login
  • Rotating Client Testimonials
  • Information Architecture

“We built a web site and after a year realized that our skills resided more in running our business than web development. The problem was that many aspects of our site that could be automated were not! Don Cranford and Katalyst came to our rescue. They built a extremely professional web site that has a high level of automation for our subscribers and for us! They listened to our preferences both in terms of design and in terms of functionality and delivered on our dreams.”
