What you get

Private by default

Only signed-in members of your school see its photos. Parents choose whether their child can be tagged, and children's names are shown only to staff and their own parents.

Rank progress

Belts and stripes on every member's profile, with built-in rank systems for BJJ (including Gracie University), Judo, Karate and Taekwondo. Customise any of them, and track a rank in each art a member trains.

Albums

Upload a whole class or promotion night at once, or build an album from photos already in the gallery.

Events and RSVPs

Tournaments, seminars, promotions and graduations, with Going and Interested RSVPs, your own payment link, calendar downloads and a shareable page for public events.

Feed and groups

A feed for your school's posts, photos and promotions. Groups such as competition team or instructors make sure each post and event reaches the right people.

Comments and messages

Threaded comments, likes, notifications, pinned announcements and direct messages between members.

Moderation and dashboard

Members can report content to your staff, who review and remove it. Your dashboard handles members, invites, children, groups, ranks and photo privacy.

Works with GymDesk Coming soon

New members get an invite automatically, and promotions recorded in GymDesk update their rank.

How it works

  1. 01

    Set up your school

    Request early access. We'll set up your school with your name, your disciplines and your rank systems, free for a three-month pilot.

  2. 02

    Invite your members

    Send invite links, share a join code, or approve join requests. Parents get their own invite, linked to their child.

  3. 03

    Share and celebrate

    Post photos after class, record promotions, and keep your community connected between sessions.

Built by a school owner

MartialQuest is built by Tim Martin, a black belt in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu and owner of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Green Cove Springs in Florida. His four decades of training include Taekwondo, Filipino Martial Arts, Pencak Silat, Jun Fan and Wing Chun. Green Cove Springs is the first school on MartialQuest.

Running a Gracie University CTC?

MartialQuest was built at a Gracie University Certified Training Center. The Gracie University adult and youth belt systems are built in, so your students' ranks look the way they do on the mat from day one.

Questions

Who can see our photos?

Only signed-in members. Photo links don't work for anyone who isn't signed in, and direct-message attachments are visible only to the two people in the conversation.

We teach kids. How will that work?

Children don't need their own accounts. Parents join with an invite linked to their child, see their child's photos and promotions, and decide whether their child can be tagged. Children's names are visible only to staff and their own parents.

Does it work for our style's rank system?

Rank systems for BJJ (IBJJF and Gracie University, adult and youth), Judo, Karate and Taekwondo are built in, plus a levels system for schools without belts. You can customise names, colors and stripes, and schools that teach several arts can track a rank in each.

Do we need GymDesk?

No. MartialQuest works on its own. A GymDesk connection for automatic invites and rank updates is coming for schools that use it.

Can a student belong to more than one school?

Yes. One login works across every school someone trains at, they switch between schools in one tap, and each school sees only its own content.

What does it cost?

Early-access schools start with a free three-month pilot. We'll set pricing with our pilot schools' input, and no school is charged without agreeing to it first.
