Everything You Need to Run Your Academy

All the tools you’d expect from gym management software, plus custom-made integrations just for Gracie University CTCs.

Digital Attendance Card

The GU attendance card, built into Gymdesk. Members scan in to log attendance, see belt rank, stripe count, and class history—and find partners on the same curriculum.

Keep Your Payment Processor

Most gym software eats 3–5% on every transaction. Gymdesk lets you keep your own processor account and pass fees to members at checkout.

One Household, One Bill

Link parent and kid profiles under one household—with automatic family discounts, a single payment, one receipt. Bullyproof, Little Champs, adult Combatives—all on one bill.

Automation flow screen to manage leads scheduling first class with steps to send messages and change contact tags.

Automations Built and Tested by HQ

A full library of marketing automations Gracie HQ built and tested, imported into your account the day you launch—including trial reminders, no-show follow-ups, white-belt retention, and more.

Pre-Built, On-Brand Websites for CTCs

Every CTC gets a website pre-built and on-brand for Gracie University. The design work is already done—you fill in the details for your academy and go live. No designer to hire, no monthly fees on top.

Add Content to Prep Your Students for Class

Attach technique videos to every skill on your schedule. Your students study the moves before class—so when they show up, they’re ready to drill, not learn from zero.

Migration & Support

Onboarding Tailored to Your Situation

Every gym is different. Some want to get up and running same day. Others need hands-on help moving from another platform. We built our onboarding around you—not the other way around. And once you’re live, real people are here when you need them.

DATA PORTABILITY

And Most Importantly, We Never Hold Your Data Hostage

Your members' payment data and billing history belong to you. Unlike Spark, you own your payment processor account directly—no mandatory processor. If you ever move on, you take everything with you at no additional cost.
