Tatami Way home

A website as individual as your dojo.

Designed for your dojo. Not picked from a template. We work with you to design your site from the ground up, build it on your own domain, and stay with you as it grows.

The home page of sanyama.org: “Different elements. A stronger you.” above four element emblems.
The home page of jissenma.com on a phone: “Traditional karate, made real for today.” under the Jissen crest.

Built from the ground up, with you.

Bring your vision. We help at every step, from the first conversation to launch day, and long after.

We learn your dojo

Your story, lineage, programs, students and the families you want to reach.

We design it with you

Layout, colours, type and copy made for your school, reviewed with you before anything goes live.

We build and launch

On your own domain, with request forms wired to your inquiry inbox from day one.

You keep it current

Change copy, photos and the timetable yourself. Need a new page or program? We build it.

What your website can do.

Every site is different, but these are the parts dojos ask for most. Each example below is a real dojo site, or Tatami Dojo, our showcase.

On jissenma.com and sanyama.org

Your mark, your colours, your voice.

Your logo, colours, type, photos and words, laid out the way your dojo looks and talks. Jissen leads with its crest and its sensei; San Yama tells its story through an emblem of four elements. No two sites look alike, because no two dojos are alike.

  • Your logo and colours throughout
  • Photos of your mat and your people
  • Your own domain
  • Your member app and emails carry your brand too

A path for kids, and a path for adults.

Parents and adult students come looking for different things. Your site can give each their own path: programs by age and the questions parents ask on one side, the training adults are after on the other, each in its own voice.

  • Programs by age, from little ones to teens
  • A page just for parents
  • An adult section with its own look
  • Homeschool and after-school programs

Tell your story.

Where your art comes from, what you teach and why, and a welcome from your head instructor. The pages that make a family choose your dojo, written in your words.

  • Your lineage and how the dojo began
  • Your philosophy and what you hold to
  • A letter from your head instructor

Your instructors and ranks, always current.

Instructor cards come from your member records: name, rank and title, ranks in other arts, certificates and appointments. Promote someone in Tatami and the website shows it. Your belt path is laid out so a family can see the road ahead.

  • Instructor cards built from your roster
  • Ranks in other arts and certificates, in your order
  • Your belt path, explained for families

Your class schedule, never out of date.

The timetable is part of your site that you change yourself: classes by day, time and age. Update it and publish, and it reads just as well on a phone.

  • Classes by day, time and age
  • Changed by you, whenever it changes
  • Easy to read on a phone

  • One inbox, from New to Enrolled, with notes
