A standing slot

In Season

Weekly, through a season, then it stops.

The arrangement

What it is

A season puts the same strain on the same muscles every week, so people who play tend to come just as regularly. It’s the pattern people stick with longest.

Nobody arranges one of these for the massage. They arrange it because what they do (a season, a build-up, a working week) puts the same strain on the same muscles over and over, and a time that's already in the diary is one less thing to decide.

£450 a monthFour one-hour sessions a month, at a weekly time held for you. That is £112.50 a session instead of £125.

The time is held. The same slot, in the diary, rather than a decision to make every few weeks.
A short progress note every month: what has been worked on, how it is going, and what is next.

Paid monthly, in advance, for as long as the season runs. End it when the season does, or sooner: it stops at the end of the month already paid for.

If that sounds like your year, say so and ask what's free. Slots open up when someone's season ends, so sometimes the answer is not this month.

Who is on it

The routines that end up here

Rowing Crews training through a season tend to come every week or two, and most keep something going over the winter rather than stopping between seasons.
Contact sport In season, about once a week. Out of season, most people drop to once a month instead of stopping altogether.
Racquet sport Like most seasonal sports: weekly while you are playing competitively, less often between seasons. Shoulder and elbow problems
Golf Golfers tend to come every three or four weeks through the playing season, and most keep something going over the winter rather than stopping with the fixtures. Why golfers' backs hurt

Whose words these are

A client already calls it this

I play lots of rugby at an high level and often see him once a week and he never fails to do the job.

The other two

If that doesn't sound like you

All three are the same person and the same room. What differs is how often you come and for how long. What a standing slot actually is, if that's what you're wondering.

These are arranged in person, not bought online, usually at the end of a session. If you already know which one suits you, say so and Jonathan will tell you what's free.
