For dojo owners & head instructors
I know what parents look for before signing their child up.
I build sites that look great on launch day and keep working for years.
One monthly fee covers building, hosting, and every update.

What you get
For new families finding you, and students checking in between classes.
A trial class button on every page. Requests land in your email with the student's age and class, so you can call back the same day.
Parents decide, so this page answers their questions: ages, what a first class looks like, and what to wear.
Moved a class or changed a rate? Text me and it's updated.
Your instructors, their ranks, and the teachers your style comes from.
Testing requirements, technique videos, or anything only certain students or ranks should see, behind a password.
Seminars, belt test dates, closures, and medal results parents love to share.
Class photos and tournament videos that load fast on a phone.
Keep your billing software. Your site links to its sign-up and member pages.

Case studies
Two schools I know well: my home dojo, and the dojo of the world champion I train under. Drag the sliders to compare before and after.
Shitō-ryū karate · San Ramon, CA
My home dojo for 12 years. A cleaner redesign of a site families already knew, plus a Belt Tests page where students pick their rank and enter a password to open their written test and requirements.
Karate · Tottori, Japan
The dojo of legendary 2012 Karate World Champion Rika Usami. I redesigned her site on my own, then pitched it to her in person when I trained with her in Tottori in June 2026.

About me
I started karate at six and trained at AABBA Karate in San Ramon for 12 years, where I earned my shodan in Hayashi-ha Shitō-ryū. I've also trained in Shotokan for six years, boxed for three, and spent two weeks training karate in Okinawa. Today I coach the Santa Clara University Karate club and train under 2012 World Champion Rika Usami.
By day I'm a quality assurance (QA) engineer at a software company. My job is finding what breaks before customers do, and I check your site the same way before it goes live.
I've been the student, the competitor, and the coach, so I build sites around what each of them needs, and around the parent deciding whether to sign their child up.
Two months ago I started judo, so I'm a white belt again. I know exactly what it feels like to walk into a new school for the first time, and that's the person your website is for.
I also built a data analysis site for the 2024–25 WKF kata season, because I like digging into the sport.
Pricing
Less than a typical student's monthly tuition, and it covers everything.
Typical price
One monthly fee covers building your site, hosting it, and keeping it up to date. No upfront cost. 6-month minimum, then month to month.
No, keep using Kicksite, Spark Membership, Zen Planner, or whatever you already use! Your website links right to its sign-up, booking, and member portal pages, so nothing changes for your students or staff.
You don't have to! Just text or email me the change (even a quick photo of the schedule on your whiteboard works) and I'll take care of it. Every change is included, and I make small changes within 3 days and bigger ones within 5.
It's simple! You give your students a password, and they use it to open belt test requirements, written tests, or technique videos. Each rank can even have its own password. On the AABBA site, each rank's test is encrypted with its password, so nobody can open it without one. Want to change a password? Just let me know.
No, I build for any martial arts or combat sports school!
Yes, I'd love to! That's exactly what I did for AABBA Karate and Usami Rika Dojo. If you already own your domain, you keep paying for it, and I'll move it over and connect it to your new site, so your web address stays the same.
You own your domain name, business name, logo, and the photos, videos, and business information you give me. I own the website's design and code, including its layout, styling, and site files.
