Karate dojo management software built around belts and kata
A white belt's first bow and a black belt test can be years apart. Sidekick MAS keeps every class and kata in between on one record.
Kata in the curriculum
Every rank lists its kata and techniques, so students and instructors know what the next belt takes.
More than one dojo
Add every location to one account and switch between them from the top bar.
Kids, adults and black belts
Run kids, adult and black belt classes as separate programs on your schedule, each with its own memberships.
Karate dojo management software with check-in your way
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.
Karate club management software for every style
Choose your style in Sidekick MAS, then set its belt order, stripes and kata for each rank.
Kyokushin, Uechi-Ryu and dozens more karate styles are in the style list too, and you can add your own.
Karate studio software for each class you teach
Add the kids class, the adult class and the black belt club just as your dojo runs them.
One system for the rest of the dojo
The same karate management software also runs your disciplines, curriculum, family portal, online store and sign-up forms.
Karate, Kobudo and anything else you teach
Teach karate alongside Kobudo, Kickboxing, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or any other art. Each discipline keeps its own style, belt ranks and curriculum. A student can hold a rank in more than one.
Build your curriculum
For every belt, list the techniques, kata and attendance it asks for. Add instructions and a video link, then set how each item is graded.
A portal for every family
Families sign in to your school's own portal. There they see the class schedule, sign documents, update their details and follow belt progress.
Your online store
Sell uniforms, belts and gear in the portal. Families place the order online and pay for it at the front desk.
RISE forms for trial sign-ups
Build trial-offer sign-up pages in four languages. Each sign-up arrives in your pipeline as a new prospect for your team to follow up.

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.
Karate school management software questions
What is karate school management software?
It runs the daily work of a karate school: students and families, attendance, belt promotions and the kata curriculum. Memberships, waivers and messages live there too, all in one Sidekick MAS web app.
Does Sidekick MAS work for Shotokan, Goju-Ryu, Shito-Ryu, Wado-Ryu and Shorin-Ryu?
Yes. You choose your style from the list and set your own belt order, stripes and requirements. Other styles, such as Kyokushin and Uechi-Ryu, are in the list too, and you can add your own.
Can I track kata and techniques for each belt?
Yes. Each rank's curriculum lists its techniques, kata, attendance and any custom requirement. Every item can carry instructions, a video link, a passing grade and a number of evaluations.
Can one dojo run karate and other martial arts?
Yes. Add as many disciplines as you teach, such as Kobudo or Kickboxing. Each keeps its own style, ranks and curriculum, and a student can train in more than one.
Do families get their own portal?
Yes. Each family signs in to your school's own portal. From there they check the schedule, sign documents, update contact details and see a student's belt progress.
Can I sell uniforms and gear online?
Yes. Your store lists uniforms, belts and gear in the portal. Families order there and pay the school in person, since nothing is charged online.
Can students and parents sign waivers online?
Yes. Waivers and agreements arrive as a link that opens on a phone. Students and parents sign without creating an account, in English, Spanish, French or Portuguese.
What does Sidekick MAS cost for a karate dojo?
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.
