Hatha, vinyasa and yin are three different kinds of music
In hatha, poses are held for a long time, and the music should be almost still: warm pads, drones, no events. Vinyasa has flow and transitions, so a light pulse that helps hold the pace is fine. Yin yoga and savasana are close to silence.
One mix for every class means it fits about one class in three. That's why Harmonia's formats are separated: morning practice, breath and stillness, Eastern meditation, singing bowls, flute and handpan.
The teacher's voice matters more than the music
In a studio, music is always secondary to instruction. If a track has distinct vocals or a strong melody, students start listening to it instead of the teacher and stop following their breath.
There's a technical side too: the voice sits in the midrange, and music with a dense midrange masks it. Yoga mixes are built specifically to keep the midrange free.
No PRO fees for our music
A typical background-music service gives you tracks by well-known artists. The rights to those tracks belong to labels and songwriters, so a studio may also have to deal with a performing rights organization (PRO), such as ASCAP or BMI in the US, PRS for Music in the UK or SOCAN in Canada, on top of the subscription.
Harmonia works differently. Our catalog is original music produced for business use, and a public-performance license for your venue is included in the subscription. Our tracks are not registered with PROs such as ASCAP, BMI, PRS, SOCAN, APRA AMCOS or GEMA, so playing music from our catalog does not create PRO fees for that music.
Launch within one business day
Send an application and we approve it within a business day. After that, the music plays on the devices you already have in the studio: the teacher's phone or tablet, a laptop or a mini-PC with a speaker.
Staff don't have to pick anything each morning. Playlists and the schedule are set once, then the music starts by itself and doesn't repeat during a shift. For a chain, everything is managed centrally, by location and zone, from one account.
How much it costs
One plan, no bundles and no extra fees for genres or devices. The price depends only on the number of locations and zones.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to pay PRO fees for music in a yoga studio?
Not for our catalog. Every Harmonia track is original music produced for business use and is not registered with PROs such as ASCAP, BMI, SOCAN, PRS for Music, APRA AMCOS or GEMA. You pay only the subscription, and it includes a public-performance license for your venue.
What music suits a yoga class?
For hatha: warm pads and drones with no musical events. For vinyasa, a light pulse that follows the pace of the flow is fine. For yin and savasana: near silence. The common requirement is a free midrange so the teacher's voice doesn't get lost in the music.
How much does music for yoga studios cost per month?
From $12/mo per location when billed annually ($144 a year). Monthly billing is $17/mo. Each additional location in the same company is cheaper: $7/mo billed annually or $12/mo billed monthly. A separate zone with its own playlist is $4/mo billed annually or $5/mo billed monthly. There are no hidden fees for genres or devices.
Can I play Spotify or Apple Music in a yoga studio?
No. Personal accounts on Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube Music are licensed for personal, non-commercial listening only, and their terms of service forbid playing them in a business. Music in a public space counts as public performance, which a personal subscription does not cover. You need either a public-performance license from the rights organizations in your country or a catalog that is licensed for business use, like ours.
What do I show during a music licensing inspection?
Two documents: your subscription agreement with Harmonia and the license certificate (PDF) issued for each location. The certificate confirms that the venue holds a public-performance license for our catalog. If a rights organization contacts you, write to legal@harmonia-b2b.com and we will help you with the paperwork.
What happens if I play unlicensed music in a yoga studio?
Playing music publicly without the right license can lead to claims and fines from performing rights organizations (PROs). The rules and the amounts depend on the country. A subscription to a catalog that includes a public-performance license removes this risk for the music you play from it.
What equipment does the music play on?
Almost anything: a POS terminal, mini-PC, TV box, Smart TV, laptop, or an Android or iOS phone. You don't need to buy special hardware. Everything runs through the web player or the app.
What happens if the internet goes down?
The player caches your playlist and keeps playing offline. The music doesn't stop while the connection comes back.
