You may find that those that are dedicated will stand in line no matter what. And online sign-up is less of a commitment if you forget or just don’t feel like showing up. It’s the reason why many large facilities still use the get in line system to work out.

I do agree when coming or going from a class I pass the line dancing class that class is out of control, with people. Water classes here are a big draw due to low impact, and do create a line, but only more classes would help with the big draw classes

We do belong to multiple clubs in TV, three of which you must sign of for the meeting and get a ticket. On any given meeting there are more no shows than you would think, keeping out those who didn’t sign up minute one. But no matter how much one hopes for a system change it’s those in charge who can make the difference, it has not changed since 07.
Some people don't like to stand in line at all to buy groceries; some people don't like to stand in line for an hour to attend a class. I imagine a reservation system would be welcomed by many. But who knows. At our stage of life many people do not embrace change.
