Judo school software built around kyu and dan grades
Years pass between a white belt's first breakfall and their dan grading. Sidekick MAS keeps every class and grade in between on the judoka's record.
Throws and newaza in the syllabus
Each grade lists its throws, hold-downs, breakfalls and groundwork. Judoka and coaches can both see what the next grade takes.
Grading day, organized
Schedule a grading, add the candidates, split them into sessions and send promotion notices to families.
Juniors, seniors and squads
Run junior, senior, newaza and competition classes as separate programs on your schedule, each with its own memberships.
Judo check-in, from the kiosk to the sensei's roster
Members check in the way that suits your front desk, and every check-in lands on their record.
PIN at the kiosk
Members tap their own 4-digit PIN on a tablet at the front desk. Too many wrong guesses lock the kiosk for a while.
Card or key tag
Scan a member card or key tag with a barcode scanner, and the kiosk finds them at once.
Name search
No card with them? Members search for their name on the kiosk and tap to check in.
Instructor's roster
Instructors mark who is on the mat straight from the class roster.
Bulk entry at the desk
Staff record a whole class at once after it ends, ticking everyone who trained.
Each check-in confirms the membership
Before a kiosk or roster check-in saves, Sidekick MAS checks the membership is live and covers the class. If it isn't, it says why: no membership, canceled, frozen, or not in the plan. That tells the desk what to do next: sell a membership, win them back, unfreeze it, or add the class.
Judo dojo software for every ruleset
Choose your style in Sidekick MAS, then set its grades, tabs and syllabus for each belt.
Pick one of these three from the style list, or add your club's own.
Judo academy software for every class you run
Junior judo, newaza nights and competition squad randori each sit on your timetable with their own memberships.
The rest of your judo club, in the same system
Sidekick MAS also runs your other disciplines, the family portal, the online store and your sign-up forms.
Multiple disciplines, one club
Teach judo alongside Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Wrestling, MMA or any other art. Each keeps its own style, grades and syllabus. A member can hold grades in more than one.
Build your syllabus
For every grade, list the throws, holds and attendance it asks for. Add instructions and a video link, and choose how each item is graded.
A portal for every family
Families sign in to your club's own portal. They check the timetable, sign documents, update details and follow each child's grades.
Your online store
Sell judogi, belts and club kit in the portal. Families order there, then pay at the club desk.
RISE forms that fill your classes
Build trial-offer sign-up pages in four languages. A parent who books a first judo class lands in your pipeline as a new prospect.

Check-in without the clipboard
Students and parents check in at a kiosk, or instructors take attendance from the class roster.
Waivers signed before the first class
Send waivers and agreements as a link in the family's language. They sign on their phone without creating an account.
Simple pricing based on the size of your school
Plans start at $39.99 a month and change only as your number of active members grows.
Questions about judo club software
What is judo club management software?
It is software that runs the day-to-day of a judo club: members and families, check-ins, grades, the throws and newaza syllabus, memberships, waivers and messages. Sidekick MAS puts all of it in one web app your sensei and front desk share.
Can I set up kyu and dan grades, and junior mon grades?
Yes. You name every grade in the order your club awards them. Then add the tabs on each belt and what each grade asks for.
Can I track throws, holds and breakfalls for each grade?
Yes. Each grade's syllabus lists its techniques, attendance and any custom requirement. Every item can carry instructions, a video link, a passing grade and the number of evaluations it needs.
How do members check in?
At the kiosk, with a 4-digit PIN, a card or key tag, or a name search. The sensei can also mark them from the class roster. After class, desk staff can record everyone at once. Sidekick MAS checks the membership before saving any check-in.
Can I organize a grading day?
Yes. Set the date, add the candidates and split them into sessions if the list is long. Then send promotion notices to families.
Can one club teach judo and other martial arts?
Yes. Add every discipline you teach, such as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or Wrestling. Each keeps its own style, grades and syllabus, and a member can train in more than one.
Can members and parents sign waivers online?
Yes. You send waivers and agreements as a link. Members and parents sign on a phone without an account, in English, Spanish, French or Portuguese.
How much does Sidekick MAS cost for a judo club?
Plans start at $39.99 a month, priced by your number of active members, with a 30-day free trial. See the pricing page for every plan.
