2 things to know before you read on:
The templates mentioned below are for Squarespace 7.1. They are free, but you will still need a Squarespace plan to use them.
These templates are handpicked for what I personally think is best for artists based on my experience working with previous clients. Opinions are subjective is what I'm saying.
Almar comes with a few pre-built pages for coaches:
A Home page with multiple sections to describe your services, how you work, social proofs, etc. It also features call-to-action buttons for clients to schedule a call with you.
An About page for your background.
A booking page to book your services with various prices.
A blog page for your writings.
A contact page with your contact details.
Note that even though Almar comes with a service booking page, to get it working, you will need to subscribe to the Squarespace Scheduling add on.

Smooth animation throughout the site.
Pre-built blog page and articles.
Various section layouts for testimonials, services, content, etc.

Emmeline was made as a template for Hair salons, but it can very well be converted for coaches as well.
The template has a lot of components you can adapt for your coaching service, such as the individual service page, an appointment booking page, a page for past clients and testimonials, etc.
