   GROUP COACHING PROGRAMS — inner page
   Header/footer/hero-frame/consult are the shared components (folds.css,
   vbs.css) — same vbs-hero as Experts Voice, Collaborations, Studio for Rent
   and On-Campus Study Centre. Everything below the hero uses a shape none of
   the other inner pages use yet: a staggered offset tile cluster, a photo
   backdrop with pinned floating tags, a horizontal alternating metro-line
   process, a torn-ticket batch-spec strip, a fanned overlapping card deck,
   and a full-bleed photo CTA band.
