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 and Ahmedabad have unusually strong workshop cultures.
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.
