Solving Real World Problems Through Technology
How a journey started with saving a business through solving real-world problems, ended with a technology solution complementing the business growth in folds for Kids.
THE BACKGROUND
MASA is a well established Martial Arts studio with over 21 years of experience in this field. After many years following the "normal" way of training children, they began reviewing the process and the digital platform to take it to the next level.
At that point, they approached Hidden Brains to provide a robust front end solution for the Martial Arts Trainers, Students, and Parents to manage their day to day roles during the training classes, the progress of students, and additional training required to go to the next level across multiple studios in Australia.
THE PRODUCT
The MASA Kidz Club® program is a unique "plugin" program for any Martial Arts Studio of any style: Existing or Startups that provides a deep reward system of badges and incentives, 10 years of training curriculums, and ongoing personal consulting.
The aim is to create a professional global team and support martial arts studios across Australia. The system has already proven to be successful in our Studio at capacity with over 500 active students. This solution provides a clear pathway for student's success from the age of 3.5 - 14 years for creating a strong foundation.
THE PRODUCT
Low internet connectivity led to an interruption in using the application.
Management of multiple studios, their trainers, students, parents required a robust back end.

Teacher or Studio Admin will comment on students in the class completion process and while committing that class, the comment will go as a message notification to the parent of that student. Parents will have an option in settings to enable or disable the comment notification.
The purpose of this is to generate certificates dynamically based on a template for the students who achieved any certificate during the term and to give a copy of the achieved certificate to the student.
A group of team members with an expertise in data architecture, technology & big data handling brainstormed together breaking down every possible situation & extreme cases.
