Reservd, a booking marketplace for independent fitness and wellbeing businesses, opened to the public in Brighton and Hove at midnight on Sunday 1 November 2026. Customers can search classes, gym sessions, saunas and one-to-one coaching, see which have places left today, and book and pay in one go.
Reservd says people pay the studio’s own price, straight to the studio, with no credits, no subscription and no booking fee. It also announced a free weekly run along Hove seafront starting on Monday 9 November.
What you can book on Reservd
Pilates, reformer, yoga, boxing, strength, HIIT, Qigong, saunas and personal training are all on Reservd from day one, according to the company. They are offered by studios in Hove, central Brighton, Preston Circus and Lewes Road.
Businesses listed on the Reservd site include Brighton Kettlebells, Brighton Energy Works, Zone4 Hove, so.sauna, Revitalise and Blue Moon Circus.
A “Today” view shows spare places in the next few hours, so a free hour after work can become a class. Customers can book with just a name and email address, and the Reservd app is on the App Store and Google Play.
What it costs
For customers, Reservd charges nothing on top of the studio’s own price. Reservd describes itself as a different model from credit-based class apps.
For businesses, listing is free with no monthly fee. Reservd takes 2% per booking plus card fees, and nothing more. Studios, gyms and personal trainers can also run their timetable, payments, memberships, class packs and check-in on the platform. A business already using another booking system can keep it, and Reservd connects to it.
Reservd Run Club on Hove seafront
Reservd Run Club meets every Monday at 6.30pm from Monday 9 November for a 5km run along Hove seafront. It is led by coach and Hyrox athlete Bibi Haughton, and every pace is welcome. The run finishes with a stretch together.
Places are free and booked at reservd.co.uk/runclub. The booking page asks runners to arrive by 6.20pm, and the session runs until 7.45pm. New customers give a few details, accept a waiver and confirm they are 18 or over. Cancellation is free until 6.30am on the day.
Runners check in at the start, collect a stamp in a run passport each week, and can record the run in the Reservd app and send it to Strava. The page suggests bringing running shoes, something bright to wear, a head torch in the dark months and a water bottle.
What the founders say
Bradley Hunt, co-founder and head of product at Reservd, said: “Brighton and Hove has some of the best independent studios in the country, but finding them and booking them has meant a different app or website every time. Reservd puts them in one place.”
Jack Wennington, co-founder and partner success, said the company built Reservd around what independent studio owners told it they needed. “Listing is free and there’s no monthly fee, so a one-person PT business can sit next to a busy reformer studio on a level footing,” he said.
Where Reservd goes next
Reservd is part of Wenhunt Group Ltd, based in Brighton. It launched across BN1, BN2, BN3, BN41 and BN42, and will open across the rest of Sussex on 1 December 2026. Businesses can list and customers can book at reservd.co.uk.
