Host online classes and workshops
Whether it’s a one-off masterclass, a weekly yoga session, or a four-week cohort, an online class needs the same machinery: a page that sells the session, a capacity cap, payment, and reminders that get students into the call. That’s one Espeya page.
Built for teaching formats
- Paid spots or free RSVPs: charge per seat with a flat 5% platform fee (0% on Plus), or run free sessions at no cost, forever.
- Capacity and waitlists: cap the class at a teachable size; when someone drops, the waitlist backfills automatically.
- The class link is gated: your Zoom or Meet link is revealed only to confirmed students, not the open internet.
- Reminders do the chasing: automatic reminders before the session replace the manual “see you tomorrow!” email.
- Recurring sessions live on a calendar: students follow your calendar once and see every upcoming session.
What teachers run on Espeya
- Skill workshops: design, writing, coding, music production; 90 minutes, 10–30 seats, priced to signal seriousness.
- Fitness and wellness sessions: breathwork, yoga, mobility; free first sessions convert to paid regulars.
- Cohort courses: multi-week programs where each session is an event on your calendar.
- Hybrid teaching: an in-person room plus online seats on the same page. City-side notes: Chennai, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, and Singapore have strong workshop cultures; pure virtual stays on online events.
Pricing a class
Free classes fill fastest but flake hardest. Even a small price transforms attendance: students who pay, show. How to price and sell spots, and the no-show playbook for the free ones.

Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to sell class spots?
Nothing upfront. A flat 5% platform fee comes out of each paid spot, and 0% on Espeya Plus. Free classes are free forever.
Can I limit how many students join?
Yes, set a capacity and the class closes at that number; a waitlist backfills anyone who drops, so a paid seat never goes unused.
How do students get the class link?
Your meeting link is revealed only to confirmed students after they RSVP or pay. It never sits on the public page.
Can I run a multi-week course?
Publish each session as an event on your calendar. Students who follow the calendar see every upcoming session, and reminders go out before each one.
