Create a club

A club in Kimono is a physical location or a training group inside your organization. You can have one or many (a chain of clubs).

This guide walks you through the form, screen by screen.

Why a club?

The club carries:

• Its own address and contact info.
• A max capacity.
• The disciplines practiced on site.
• Its opening hours (used for notifications).
• The trial-class settings (slots open to the public).
• Optionally, its own invoice numbering.

Where to find the form

Admin panel → Clubs → Create.

Step 1 — General information

Identify the club: name, logo, contact, manager.

The club name is visible to members. The URL identifier is used in the public trial-class link (leave it empty and Kimono generates one).

Field	Used for
Logo	Appears on the public club page and confirmation emails
Club name	Shown to members and prospects (e.g. Sakura Dojo Paris 15th)
URL identifier	Slug in /trial/your-org/this-slug. Empty = auto-generated
Manager	Main team member in charge (optional)
Active	Untick to hide the club from selectors without deleting
Email / Phone / Website	Contact info shown on the public page
Description	Free pitch (equipment, vibe)

---

Step 2 — Location, hours, capacity

Full address and practical settings for members and prospects.

The arrival instructions are automatically included in the confirmation email sent after a trial-class signup. Don't skip them!

Field	Used for
Address / City / ZIP / Country	Full address, printed on invoices and linked to Google Maps
Disciplines	Which martial arts are taught here
Capacity	Max simultaneous practitioners. Drives an overbook alert
Opening / Closing time	Club hours (informational, not a hard block)
Arrival instructions	Free text ("ring the intercom"...). Sent to prospects
Season start month	Per-club override (otherwise the org-wide value applies)

---

Step 3 — Extra addresses (optional)

The Addresses block: add other locations tied to the club (annex, secondary practice room). Each address can be used as a meeting point.

---

Step 4 — Create the club

Create button at the top right. The club shows up in your list and becomes selectable in plans, events, trial slots.

What next?

• Schedule weekly sessions: add your timetable.
• Open the public trial-class page to capture new prospects.
• Configure invoice numbering at the club level (independent of the organization).

Multi-club tips

If you run several halls within the same legal entity:

• One organization + one club per location.
• Members are tied to the organization, they can train at any club.
• Each club has its own address, schedule, capacity.
• Bookkeeping is consolidated or separated depending on your invoice numbering setup.
