Your students keep practising between classes.
A practice app with your name on it. Your videos, your branding, your students. They practise at home for a few minutes a day, you can see it's working, and they come back next term.
No app store. Students add it to their phone from a link.
An hour a week in class. The progress happens in between.
Practice slips between sessions
Students mean to practise, then the week happens. Next class starts from where the last one began.
Handouts and links get lost
PDFs, WhatsApp videos and YouTube playlists scatter. Nobody can find "that warm-up from week three".
You can't see who's practising
Without a picture of who's keeping it up, it's hard to encourage the right people or show a client it's working.
Set up in an afternoon. Runs itself after that.
- 1
Add your practices
Film short practices on your phone, or use videos you already have on YouTube or Vimeo. Arrange them into programmes and modules.
- 2
Invite your students
Send an invite by email, or share a join code. They sign in with a code from their inbox: no passwords, no app store.
- 3
See them practise
Practice logs itself when a video finishes or the timer ends. You see who's keeping it up; they see their week fill in.
Made for how tai chi and martial arts are taught
Your school, not ours
Your logo, colours, photo and welcome on every screen, at your own web address. Students see your school, not a platform.
A practice timer
Standing practice or stance holds, with your own durations, instructions and a soft bell. It works with no signal, in the park or on holiday.
Terms and memberships, handled
Access follows your term dates with a grace period, or runs for as long as a membership does, then a friendly prompt to renew. No chasing, no manual removals.
Practice that counts itself
Videos log when watched to the end, the timer when it finishes. Students see their week and streak; you see who's practising.
Nothing to download
It installs from a link onto the home screen of any iPhone or Android phone, and updates itself.
Your content stays yours
We host your videos and student records; we don't own them. Student data is stored in the UK, and you can take a full export whenever you want.
Teach companies too, without the admin.
Run tai chi, qigong or self-defence for an employer's wellbeing programme and keep their staff practising after the workshops end. You set your own prices and invoice as you do now; the app just handles access.
- A join code for each company, with a seat limit and only their email domain allowed
- Licence dates: set an end date, or one click for "90 days after the last workshop"
- Anonymised usage summaries for HR, never naming individuals (coming soon)
Built alongside a working tai chi school.
Revive Tai Chi is the first school on Practice Between. Every screen was shaped with its founder, Alla, around how her termly classes and workplace programmes actually run, so it fits how instructors work rather than how software companies think they do.
We're welcoming a small number of schools first.
Founding schools get hands-on help setting up, a direct say in what we build next, and preferential terms. Tell us about your school and we'll be in touch personally.
Thank you, we've got your details.
We'll be in touch personally, usually within a couple of working days. If you'd like to talk sooner, email admin@practicebetween.com.
Questions instructors ask
Do my students need to download anything?
No. They open your link, sign in with a code from their email, and add it to their home screen. It works on iPhone and Android and updates itself.
I'm not technical. Is that a problem?
No. If you can film on your phone and send an email, you can run it. Founding schools get help setting up their first practices and inviting students.
Who owns my videos and my students' details?
You do. We host them for you, your students' details are stored in the UK, and you can export everything at any time.
Can I use videos I already have?
Yes. Add YouTube or Vimeo links, or use private video hosting so your videos only play inside your app.
What does it cost?
We're agreeing terms individually with founding schools. Tell us about your school and we'll talk it through.
