Running a aikido studio is hard enough
You shouldn't have to fight your software too. CheckInScout handles the admin so you can focus on teaching.
Technique requirements are hard to track
Aikido promotions depend on demonstrating specific techniques — not just attendance. Tracking which techniques a student has practiced and which they still need to demonstrate for their next test requires more than a spreadsheet.
Smaller dojos lack admin support
Most aikido dojos are run by one or two instructors who teach, manage the space, handle memberships, and track ranks themselves. There's no front desk staff — so admin tasks eat into practice time.
Weapons classes often go untracked
Jo and bokken practice is essential for advancement, but these sessions are often informal or held separately. Without tracking, students' weapons hours are invisible at testing time.
Everything your aikido studio needs
Kiosk Check-In
Students check in on a tablet before stepping on the mat. Works for regular class, weapons practice, and open practice sessions. Takes seconds, not minutes.
Kyu & Dan Tracking
Define technique requirements for each rank. Track mat hours, time at rank, and which techniques each student has demonstrated. Testing decisions backed by complete records.
Digital Waivers
Visitors and new students sign waivers on the tablet before their first class. No paperwork to manage — perfect for dojos without dedicated admin staff.
Attendance & Practice Logs
See attendance across all session types — regular class, weapons, open practice. Generate testing eligibility reports that account for total mat hours and technique exposure.
Member Management
Keep a clean roster with contact info, rank history, testing dates, and notes. Manage youth and adult programs from one place without juggling separate lists.
Class & Practice Scheduling
Publish your technique class, weapons practice, and open mat schedule. Students see what's available and their check-ins are categorized automatically.
Aikido kyu and dan progression built right in
Track your students through kyu ranks through dan grades with technique requirements. Set requirements for minimum training hours, days at rank, and skill evaluations. Students and parents can see their progress in real time.
