Running a martial-arts dojo with Badgie

Classes and attendance: Dashboard → Calendar (/dashboard/events), with the Calendar and Attendance tabs.

Belts: Academy → Belts. Competition record: Academy → Martial Arts (/dashboard/martial-arts).

Payments: Finance (/dashboard/finance-v2), with Overview, Invoicing, Remittances, Payers and Plans.

Organise the dojo in groups by discipline and age (for example Karate Kids, Karate Juniors, Karate Competition, Judo Juniors and Judo Youth & Adults). Each group has its weekly class with days, time, mat, senseis and enrolled students, within the season; bank holidays are cancelled without deleting the series.

Gradings, open randori or tournaments are created as one-off events with their participants.

The sensei takes the register from the app when class starts (present, absent and reason) and can rate behaviour. In the panel, Attendance shows every session with enrolled, present and percentage, the period summary and the week-by-week trend; Attendance matrix and Dropout risk help spot who stops coming.

Attendance is also a good criterion to propose candidates for the next grading.

Martial Arts lists students with a belt, their rank, their medals and whether their profile is published. With Add result you record each championship with Date, Category, Modality (kata, kumite, teams…) and Placement; the top three places show as medals.

The Published switch turns on the athlete's public profile: photo, discipline, belt, dojo, category, rank progression and record. Nothing is published on its own and it can be withdrawn at any time; if the athlete is a minor, publish only with the family's consent. View showcase opens the dojo's public list of athletes.

In Finance → Plans you set each group's monthly fee and the annual enrolment; one-off services (grading fees, sports licence, gi or private lessons) are charged separately. Each student is linked to whoever pays (usually a parent).

Overview shows what was collected, outstanding and overdue in the period by collection route (direct debit, transfer, card…), and Invoicing shows each month's receipts, issued or still to issue.

In the app, the family sees their child's class schedule, attendance, receipts and fees, current belt with the whole progression (My belt) and rank badges. Dojo announcements arrive through Communications.

Karate, judo, taekwondo and jiu-jitsu use the same building blocks; what changes is the belt ladder and the competition modalities (kata and kumite in karate, poomsae in taekwondo, gi and no-gi in jiu-jitsu). One dojo can run several disciplines at once.

The agent answers with the dojo's data: a group's attendance, who has not come for weeks, outstanding receipts, belt distribution or the published record. It can also log a championship result; publishing or withdrawing an athlete's profile is always approved by a person from the dojo.
