For jiu-jitsu, judo, muay thai, crossfit and group fitness instructors

Students don’t tell you they’re quitting,
they just stop showing up.

The instructor takes a class photo and sends it to FaceDojo’s WhatsApp number; FaceDojo recognizes the students and records attendance. When a student starts missing classes, FaceDojo alerts you on your phone while there’s still time to bring them back.

WORKS WITH WHAT YOUR ACADEMY ALREADY USES

WhatsApp

Attendance recorded from your class photo.

Wellhub

Track student check-ins in the system.

Academy link

Students register themselves on their phones.

A REAL PROBLEM

Every instructor
knows this story.

  • A student used to train three times a week. Then twice. Then once. You thought it was work, a trip, an injury.

  • By the time you noticed, they hadn’t shown up for a month. Neither had their membership payment.

  • The attendance you kept in your head because you left your notebook at home.

  • The payment reminder you put off because the student became a friend.

  • The Sunday nights spent checking bank statements to see who paid.

  • The student who disappeared, and you only noticed when the class looked smaller.

It’s not a lack of organization. No one can teach and keep track of 50 students’ attendance in their head at the same time.

How much does that cost each month? Do the math.

A real problem

How much money walks off your mats?

Enter two numbers.
We’ll do the math.

46 students
$150

Every month, around:

2 studentsstop training

That’s

$300

less in your pocket
every month.

If no new students
join, in 12 months:

21 studentswill have left.

Your academy will earn

$3,150

less per month than it does today.

Illustrative estimate with 5% monthly student churn and no new enrollments.

Student totals are rounded, and the amounts use those totals.

The 12-month projection accounts for the shrinking student base.

RESULTS IN PRACTICE

Here’s how it works.
Your training stays the same.

No computer at reception, no turnstile holding up the entrance, and no wasting 15 minutes of training taking attendance.

  1. Martial arts instructor and students together on the mats

    Teach your class as usual.

    Nothing changes on the mats. No software to open, no roll call.

  2. A hand holding a phone to send a group photo from the mats
    FaceDojo Today’s class photo! 🥋

    After training, send the class photo to FaceDojo on WhatsApp.

    FaceDojo records attendance for students identified in the photo. Review the result and add attendance manually when needed, including if you forget the photo.

  3. Get the names of absent students on your phone.

    When a student starts missing classes, the app sends you a notification. On the same screen, see whose fees are up to date and whose are overdue.

The rest is up to you. A personal message from you means more to a student than any automated reminder.

FOR EVERY ACTIVITY

It’s not just for the mats.It works for any class.

Boxing, muay thai, youth soccer, ballet, studios and functional training. If your class takes a photo after training, FaceDojo works for you.

A REAL PROBLEM

Your notebook keeps records.
It doesn’t alert you.

The way you do it today works.
Until a student disappears and you don’t notice.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Before you start, you
might be wondering...

Will this change my training routine or create more work?

No. You keep teaching as you always have. FaceDojo comes in at the end of training, not in the middle of it.

I’m not good with technology. Will I be able to use it?

The day-to-day routine happens on WhatsApp. You send the class photo to FaceDojo and follow the updates. The dashboard is available whenever you want to analyze or organize something in more detail.

How are students registered in the system?

Share your academy’s registration link and students fill in their own details. FaceDojo organizes the information so you can follow your classes.

What if the class photo is poorly lit or someone is facing sideways?

Try to take a well-lit photo with faces visible. If needed, you can also record attendance manually.

Does it work for kids’ classes and young children?

You can organize classes and track student attendance. For a kids’ class, talk to our team about registration and the permissions required from parents or guardians to use images and biometrics.

What if I forget to take a photo at the end of class?

You can record attendance manually. FaceDojo makes your routine easier without locking you into it.

How are membership fees collected?

Track membership payments and see who is up to date and who is overdue on one screen. Confirm the available payment setup for your school with the FaceDojo team.

Is there a minimum commitment or a cancellation penalty?

The current terms provide for an open-ended contract and termination with 30 days’ notice. Check your contract terms to confirm the cancellation details.
