Your own athletes, on the homepage hero. A cut-out on a transparent background sits best. Left empty, the hero shows your crest alone.
Reports from members about comments. You see what was reported and why — never who reported it. Reports about your own content are handled by another administrator or by platform moderation.
The name and contact address shown to your members and on your public page.
Your dojo's colors, used across the whole site. Changes preview on this page as you pick and apply everywhere when you save.
Keep your real brand here before you try a seasonal look, then bring it back in one click. Applying a palette fills the pickers — you still press Save Settings to publish it.
Wording used on your dojo's public home page.
Shown publicly on your dojo's pages. Leave a field empty to show nothing.
Defaults applied to new profiles and videos, plus who may see this dojo's members.
Display preference only. Which coaches may reach this dojo is granted per coach by the platform owner.
Put an access code in front of this dojo's public pages. Your members, coaches and administrators never need it — they sign in as usual. Guests who enter the code see what the team is doing: the calendar, events, tournaments, seminars and travel. They never see competitors, results, comments or anyone's contact details.
Ending guest sessions stops any further reading immediately. It cannot reach a page somebody already has open, and it does not un-share a code that has already been passed on — set a new code as well if that matters.
Send team alerts into the GroupMe group your families already read. Write once here — GroupMe carries a short alert with a link back to the full details, and this site stays the source of truth.
Your dojo’s own business line. Calls ring the phones you choose — a handset at the front desk, a staff mobile, or several — and texts arrive in a shared inbox here. Families never see anyone’s personal number.
An assistant that answers visitors’ questions about your dojo — in your voice, from answers you approve. It never guesses: a question you have not taught it goes to you instead.
Name the age and weight bands your dojo competes in, in the order you want them suggested. Coaches and competitors can still type anything.
The classes your dojo teaches each week — the days, the time, how long they run and who teaches them. They appear on the Attendance screen on the days they run, and a register taken against one counts toward the next belt unless you say otherwise.
Enrol an iPad or tablet at your front desk and students check themselves in with a PIN. The device holds the authorisation, not the PIN — a PIN on its own, away from an enrolled device, does nothing at all.
Take tuition from families with a card, on your dojo’s own Stripe account. You are the merchant — the money lands in your account, you own the refunds, and KarateShowCase takes a small share of each payment.
The ranks your dojo awards, lowest first — this order is the progression promotions follow. Every school grades differently, so there is no default: until you add ranks here, members keep the belt already written on their profile and nothing changes.
What each rank on your ladder requires — the kata, kumite, self-defence and knowledge, with your own videos and study sheets attached. A member sees the requirements for the rank after their current one; promote them and their hub changes by itself.
The instructors shown on your public page. Name is required; title, rank, years and bio are optional. Order here is display order.
KarateShowCase
Every dojo tenant, cross-dojo coach access, and the platform audit trail.
Getting in, getting on the competition team, putting a match on your profile, and how your coaches give you feedback on it.
Three ways people arrive. Which one applies to you depends on how your dojo runs its site.
The most common way in. A link arrives by email; you open it, sign in or create your account, and you are a member straight away — there is no request to make and nothing to approve, because the invitation was the approval.
Use Log In at the top of this site, then the Sign Up tab. You will need your name, your belt, an email address and a password, and you will be asked to agree to the waiver and terms and to confirm your age. We email you a link; opening it is what makes you a member.
A code lets a visitor look around without an account: the calendar, events, tournaments, seminars and travel. It is not a membership, and it never shows competitors, results, coaching notes or anyone's contact details.
Match video lives on YouTube and your profile links to it. Three steps, and you only do the first one once per video.
Sign in at youtube.com with any Google account, choose Create → Upload video, and publish it. Then copy the link from your browser's address bar.
Set the visibility to Unlisted unless you want the video found on YouTube itself. Unlisted means anyone with the link can watch it, but it does not appear in YouTube search.
There are two ways in, and both open the same form:
Only the tournament is required. Everything else can be added or corrected later.
Then Add Match.
The match joins the Matches tab on your profile, grouped by tournament and division, newest first. Kumite matches also count toward your Kumite record — kata is shown but is not scored win or loss.
A new match starts visible to your coaches and dojo admins only — not to your teammates. That is deliberate: it gives you and your coach the first look. Your dojo can open it to the team.
Feedback is pinned to the moment in the video it is about, so there is nothing to guess.
When a coach starts writing, the note takes the video's current position and holds it while they type — so a note about 1:12 stays at 1:12 even if the video plays on. Now re-anchors it to wherever the video has reached.
Every note carries the time it refers to. Tap it and the video plays from there. Notes are listed in the order they happen in the match rather than the order they were written.
A coaching note is a conversation, not a verdict. You can reply underneath any note, and your reply sits with it at the same moment in the video.
Your dojo's coaches and admins, and you. A coach's note is marked as a coach's note so you always know which voice you are reading.
Competitor profiles, match video and coaching notes are private to the dojo. This is enforced on the server, not just hidden in the page.
See nothing about any competitor — no profile, no match video, no results, no notes.
See nothing here. Membership belongs to one dojo, and there is no view across dojos.
See your profile, your matches and your coaching notes. They are the people running your training, and hiding your profile does not hide it from them.
See what you see, including a profile you have hidden from the team. Your dojo makes that link — up to four people.
See your profile unless you hide it. On your profile there is one checkbox — Hide my profile from other competitors — and it is yours to set; a coach cannot set it for you. Individual matches start coach-only regardless.
Only if KarateShowCase has assigned that coach to you by name. It is arranged one athlete at a time and shows them nothing else in the dojo. There is no way to share your profile with someone yourself — ask your dojo if you need this.
Anything about your team, your training or your place on it is your dojo's — ask your coach. If something on this site is not working the way this page describes, tell us.
Coach and admin access is granted by your dojo — sign in here as usual.
Parents and guardians manage children under 13 through their own account and the child’s dojo-managed profile. Children under 13 may not create a KarateShowCase account.
Texts, calls and voicemail for your dojo’s number, in one place your staff share — so two people never answer the same family twice.
Today’s classes and who was at them. What you record here counts toward each student’s next belt, so a correction made now is a correction everywhere.
