Judo clubs operate within one of the most structured grading systems in martial arts. IJF and national federation affiliates (USA Judo, Judo Canada, British Judo) require documented attendance hours, age minimums, and technique proficiency across nage-waza (throwing techniques) and katame-waza (groundwork) before a student can be entered for kyu or dan grading. Dan candidates often need kata records as well.

MyDojang gives you a curriculum builder that maps to this structure — set minimum class attendance per kyu, assign specific nage-waza and katame-waza requirements per rank, and track kata completion for dan candidates. Grading events include auto-generated eligibility lists so you know exactly who's ready before you submit names to your federation.
