Why Iron Syllabus

Built for everyone in your gym

Most gym software is admin-only. Iron Syllabus gives every person in your gym a reason to open the app.

Members stay engaged

A training journal, goal tracker, technique library, class booking, messaging, and a digital membership card. Members have a full training companion in their pocket.

Coaches coach better

Review technique videos, post drills of the week, manage the class timetable, send coach feedback, and build a technique library. All the tools without the admin overhead.

Owners run the business

Digital waivers, membership payment collection, member profiles with full compliance history, timetable management, and multi-gym support. No more spreadsheets.

Solo athletes train smarter

Belt tracking, journal, goals, competition history, weight log, and progress photos. The full personal toolkit for athletes who train independently, at $19/mo.

What gym owners are saying

Gyms that switched. Didn't look back.

"Our members actually open the app every day. That never happened with our old system."

"The belt progression tracking alone is worth it. Parents love seeing exactly where their kid is at."

"Set it up on a Friday, had members checking in on the app by Monday. Genuinely easy."

"The technique video review feature is a game changer. I can give feedback to 40 students without staying late."

"Switched from a spreadsheet and a Facebook group. Iron Syllabus does everything they did, better."

"My students track their own goals and attendance now. Less admin for me, more ownership for them."

"Having the QR check-in at the door saves me 10 minutes every class. Small thing, big difference."

"Competition tracker means my fighters have a proper record of their fight history. Huge for their development."

Made in New Zealand

About us

Iron Syllabus was built by martial artists, for martial artists. And grew into something bigger. We're based in New Zealand, a country with a quietly passionate combat sports community that punches well above its weight on the world stage.

We spent years training, coaching, and running classes. And in all that time we couldn't find a platform that actually understood how a martial arts gym works. The tools that existed were built for generic fitness studios: monthly billing and booking, nothing more. No belt progression. No technique review. No way to give members a real sense of where they were on their journey.

So we built Iron Syllabus. We started with what we knew. BJJ syllabuses, belt tracking, coach review queues. And kept building until it became a full platform that serves every person in the gym, not just the person behind the desk.

Today Iron Syllabus supports gyms across multiple disciplines and countries. But the philosophy hasn't changed: martial arts is built on structure, progression, and accountability. Your gym software should be too.
