Look for software with built-in digital waivers, including parent-signed waivers for minors, so guardians can sign online at sign-up and every document is stored against the student's profile. 1club captures parent-signed waivers for minors and keeps them tied to the family account, so you always know who has signed and what's outstanding.

One platform for every discipline
Brazilian jiu jitsu
Track belts and stripes on every student profile. See who's ready to promote based on time at rank and attendance. Run gi and no-gi programs, open mats, and drop-ins side by side. Billing keeps up on its own.
Karate and taekwondo
Manage kyu and dan grading, structured curricula, and belt-testing events without the paperwork. With family accounts, one parent can enroll, book, and pay for every child from a single login. That helps when kids' classes fill your timetable.
MMA and kickboxing
Keep striking, grappling, and conditioning classes on one synced schedule. Memberships, check-ins, and waitlists stay simple even with a packed timetable and students training across multiple class types.
Boxing and Muay Thai
Boxing and Muay Thai gyms usually skip belts, so retention comes down to attendance. Track who's training, sell class packs and drop-ins, and spot members slipping before they cancel.

What is martial arts software?
Martial arts software is one system that runs a martial arts school or academy day-to-day. It handles student sign-ups, attendance tracking, belt and stripe progression, billing, payments, and class scheduling in one place. It works for any discipline, including Brazilian jiu-jitsu, karate, taekwondo, judo, and MMA. It fits schools of any size, from one location to many.
FAQ
Set up your membership types once, then assign them to students in a few clicks. Renewals are billed automatically on the schedule you set, and 1club flags expiring memberships before they lapse so no one slips through. Memberships connect straight to billing and check-in, so there's no manual syncing between systems.
The simplest way is to let 1club log it for you. Students self-check in from the app or member portal, or your front desk checks in a whole class in seconds. Every check-in lands on the student's profile automatically and builds an attendance history, so you can see who trains consistently, who's ready to promote, and who's drifting before they cancel.
