Back to the Beginning: How Archery Helped Reconnect Mind and Body

“When we practice archery, we’re really having a conversation with our own body,” says Judy, founder of Mindfulness ARCHERY, as she warmly reflects on her journey and connection to the sport.

Before discovering archery, Judy worked long hours in an office, spending most of her days seated at a desk. The constant sitting left her with persistent neck and back pain. Then, one day, a friend invited her to try archery—and that simple invitation opened a new door. 

Through practice, she not only found physical relief but also a surprising sense of focus and calm. That transformation marked the beginning of an entirely new chapter.

“I hope archery helps people listen to their bodies, release tension, and create the space and time to truly reconnect with themselves.”

Starting with Passion, Creating an Archery Experience for Everyone

Judy founded Mindfulness ARCHERY to share her love for the sport, and today the brand operates ranges in both Taipei and Taichung. The Taipei range, located near Xihu MRT Station and surrounded by mountains, is an outdoor venue built to international standards. It has even been used as a training ground for athletes from the World Masters Games and featured on the TV show All Star Sports Day.

The Taichung location, named Novice Archery, features a 7-meter range designed to promote archery for beginners.

“We offer flexible scheduling and personalized instruction to suit different learners,” Judy explains. “From children to seniors, and from absolute beginners to experienced archers, everyone is welcome to find a class that fits their level.” This inclusive approach allows people to enjoy archery at their own rhythm—while having fun and reconnecting with their body.

The Challenge: Messy Bookings, Low Visibility

Judy recalled the difficulties she faced in the early days of running the business:
“Besides handling phone calls, we also tried using some free online booking tools to manage our classes.”

But free website builders often came with ads, and the layouts were cluttered—leaving an unprofessional impression. This kind of booking process frequently confused customers, making it hard for them to find the information they needed. Over time, Judy began to feel that the brand’s visibility wasn’t being properly represented.

Behind every class was a heavy load of preparation—setting up bows, arrows, and targets, checking equipment, and even arranging background music. These daily tasks, combined with a confusing booking system, not only hurt the customer experience but also made it difficult to showcase the brand’s true value.

At the point when Judy felt overwhelmed and unsure how to improve the booking flow, the rezio team stepped in to help.

The Key Reason for Using Booking System

In 2020, Judy began using the rezio booking system to build a dedicated website, creating a cleaner experience for customers without the distraction of unrelated ads.

The booking process has since become much more stable, but what stood out most for Judy was the deposit function.

 “Because we can collect payment at the time of booking, we’ve been able to reduce the issue of no-shows,” she explained. In the past, cancellations and last-minute dropouts were common, but with the deposit system in place, those problems have decreased significantly—making daily operations far easier to manage.

Today, most new customers discover Mindfulness ARCHERY through Google or social media ads, visit the website, and complete their reservations and payments directly. This convenient booking channel not only makes the brand more accessible but also brings in a steady flow of new customers.

How Calendar, Inventory, and Coupons Power Everyday Operations

“I usually start by checking the Sales Calendar. It’s really convenient for managers—I can easily see how many bookings we have for the week. Plus, it’s integrated with the Availability Calendar feature, so we never have to worry about overselling.”

Judy also highlighted how rezio makes payments more flexible. “Some customers prefer to pay at the shop, and with rezio, we can simply enable the Pay at Shop feature.” This allows her team to track each customer’s payment status in real time, while also keeping bookings and inventory organized.

For promotions, Mindfulness ARCHERY takes advantage of the coupon code feature. “We can issue up to 100 unique codes, so each coach has their own set of coupons to share with students. Once customers receive a code, they can book their next class online—or even share it with friends. It’s a great way for coaches to stay connected with their students.”

Beyond encouraging repeat visits, the coupon system also makes it easy to track results through rezio’s backend reports. “We can clearly see how many coupons each coach distributed and how many were actually redeemed,” Judy explained. This has become a valuable tool not only for monitoring coach engagement but also for gathering data to support performance evaluations.

Seamless Financial Integration, with Smooth Cancellations and Refunds

With a background in accounting, Judy has always been attentive to details—especially when it comes to numbers and financial management. One feature she values most is rezio’s partial credit card refund option, which she finds incredibly convenient. The interface is straightforward, the transaction records are clear, and together they have greatly improved the efficiency of her financial operations.

She recalled that another system provider once reached out to offer a trial, but she chose to stay with rezio—mainly because of its well-integrated financial features.

“Just today, a customer wanted to cancel their booking,” Judy said with a smile. “All I had to do was update the account settings, and rezio automatically handled the payment cancellation. No extra manual processing—it’s so convenient!”

By contrast, other systems often require contacting the payment provider or going through additional steps. “With rezio, everything is handled seamlessly,” Judy added.

Making Every Booking More Meaningful with rezio

At the close of the interview, Judy reflected on her experience working with the rezio team: “The rezio team always provides professional, timely support. They make us feel truly cared for and secure.”

She went on to add: “The system keeps improving, and you can really feel the team’s commitment behind it. We look forward to continuing this journey and growing together with rezio.”
