What’s Holding You Back From Student Growth?

These hidden problems steal hours from your week — and quietly hold your students back.

Drowning in Admin Work

Hours lost to spreadsheets, waivers, and billing — time that should be spent coaching, connecting, and retaining students.

Payment Headaches

Chasing late payments, fixing failed charges, and managing dues — creating awkward conversations and inconsistent cash flow.

Zero Visibility

No clear view of who’s thriving, who’s struggling, or who’s quietly disappearing — until it’s too late.

Lost Progress Tracking

Unclear progress makes promotions inconsistent, students frustrated, and parents questioning value.
When admin friction disappears, student growth accelerates — and your academy grows without burning you out.

Why I Built Faixa

👋 Hey, I’m Mike — a martial arts student and instructor.

Most schools don’t struggle because of instruction. They struggle because admin problems quietly pile up: missed follow-ups, messy attendance and belt tracking, parent communication headaches, and software built for generic gyms — not martial arts academies.

I built Faixa to help school owners spend less time fighting systems and more time coaching, retaining students, and growing their academy the right way.

That’s what early access is for — building this alongside real schools.

With Faixa, you’ll:
