Stop Wasting Time with Manual Check-Ins and Paper Attendance Sheets
Without proper attendance data, you can't identify at-risk students, track belt progression requirements, or measure program success. Red Belt Gym digitizes your entire attendance workflow.
The Problem: Paper Attendance Sheets Cost You Time, Accuracy & Insights
Whether you run a BJJ academy, MMA gym, karate dojo, or Muay Thai school, you're probably dealing with:
Manually tracking hundreds of students
Missing attendance patterns that affect student retention
Spending class time on check-ins instead of teaching
Students are waiting in lines instead of learning
Many gyms still track attendance on spreadsheets or outdated systems, wasting hours on admin work instead of focusing on student retention and growth.
Digital Attendance That Informs Better Decisions
Free self-service portal
Students check themselves in with just their name.
Place a tablet or laptop at your front desk and let students check in on their own. This reduces front desk bottlenecks, gives students independence, and frees staff to focus on customer service instead of data entry.
Turn any laptop or tablet into a check-in kiosk
No expensive, proprietary hardware required.
Perfect for schools that want mobility—whether you’re setting up a portal at the front desk, tracking attendance from the mat, or taking attendance on the road at tournaments or events.
Track attendance trends
See who’s consistent and who may be slipping away.
Attendance reports make it easy to identify at-risk students early, so you can reach out before they drop out. Spot long-term patterns to see which classes are thriving and which could use adjustments.
Create custom programs & ranks
Not every school follows the same path.
Easily build out programs that reflect your discipline—whether it’s Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu belt levels, Taekwondo dojang stripes, Karate kata ranks, Muay Thai progression, or youth martial arts tiers. Your system adapts to you, not the other way around.
Manage student belt progressions
In martial arts, progress is everything.
With automatic attendance logs tied to your belt or rank requirements, you’ll know exactly when a student is ready for testing. Promote students individually, or save time by running mass grading events with all the records you need at your fingertips.
