Glossary

Tatiya uses different terminology depending on your space's archetype. This glossary explains the terms and how they map across different types of spaces.

Core Concepts

Space

Your place on Tatiya. A space represents your physical location (gym, studio, workshop, venue) and includes your website, bookings, team, and community.

Archetype

A category that defines how your space is presented. Your archetype determines default terminology, suggested colors, and other presentation elements.

ArchetypeBest For
MovementGyms, martial arts, dance, fitness
SpiritualYoga, meditation, wellness, healing
CreativeArt studios, workshops, makerspaces
HospitalityCafés, coworking, event spaces

Dashboard

Your admin area where you manage everything about your space: settings, bookings, schedule, team, and more.

Website

Your public-facing site that visitors see. Shows your information, schedule, and allows bookings.

Booking Terms

What people can reserve at your space varies by archetype:

Booking Type

A template for something people can reserve. Defines the name, duration, capacity, and schedule.

Session (general)

A single occurrence of a booking type. One class, one workshop, one practice.

Recurring Session

A session that repeats on a schedule (e.g., every Monday at 6pm).

One-Off Session

A session that happens once on a specific date (e.g., a special workshop).

Group

A booking type where several people book the same session — a class, a workshop, a circle. Group booking types carry a number of places, or no limit at all.

Private

A booking type where one person books the whole session — a 1-on-1, a consultation, a treatment. A private booking type always holds exactly one person, so it has no seat count to set.

Every booking type is one or the other, and visitors see which before they book.

Capacity

How many places a Group session has. Leave it blank and there is no limit — useful for a drop-in session where the room decides.

A Private session always holds one person, so it has no capacity to set.

Waitlist

A queue for people who want to attend a full session. They're notified if a spot opens.

People Terms

Owner

The person who created and controls the space. Has full access to everything including billing and deletion.

Admin

A team member with broad access to manage the space, but cannot change billing or delete the space.

Staff

A team member with limited access. Can view schedules and attendance but cannot change settings.

Visitor

Someone who views your website (not yet booked).

Member / Guest / Practitioner / Artist

Someone who has booked at your space. The term depends on your archetype:

MovementMember
SpiritualPractitioner

Website Terms

Slug

The unique part of your URL: [slug].tatiya.space

Custom Domain

Your own web address (e.g., www.yourspace.com) connected to your Tatiya site.

Preview

Viewing your website before or after publishing. Only you and your team can see unpublished content.

Published

Your space is live and visible to the public.

Unpublished

Your space is hidden from the public. Only you and your team can access it.

Block

One section of a page: a hero banner, a paragraph, a gallery, a call to action. Pages are built by stacking blocks.

Highlight Color

A second accent color, used for the things you want noticed most, like prices.

Statement Band

A solid, full-width panel in its own colors. Used to make one message stand out on a page.

Script Font

A display font for headings written in Thai or another non-Latin script. Tatiya applies it automatically, heading by heading.

Schedule Terms

Calendar

The visual representation of all your scheduled sessions.

Weekly Schedule

Your repeating sessions shown by day of the week.

Schedule Bounds

Optional start and end dates for recurring sessions.

Timezone

The time zone your schedule operates in. All session times display in this zone.

Not sure which term to use?

Use whatever feels natural for your space. The archetype provides defaults, but you can adjust language in your content to match how you actually talk with your community.
