Miami, Florida
Miami's BJJ scene is shaped by its Brazilian and Latin American population — many gyms operate primarily in Portuguese, lineage purity is a real selling point, and the membership cycles seasonally with the snowbird and South American business calendars. Year-round mat conditions mean training never pauses, but it also means competition for shared mat space is intense, especially in the Doral, Brickell, and Aventura corridors.
The local picture
Why it works for Miami
OLM's locale system is per-organization — Miami gyms can default new members to Portuguese or Spanish based on signup flow, and waivers can be uploaded in multiple languages with the signed PDF preserving whichever version the member actually saw. For snowbird members, the comp / pause workflow holds a membership for up to 6 months without canceling — their belt rank, journal, and check-in count survive the gap. And when a hurricane forces a 3-day class cancellation, sessions can be canceled in bulk with automatic credit-back rules applied to the affected billing period.
In every BJJ gym, anywhere
Belt & stripe tracking that follows the athlete
Every promotion is recorded with the issuing professor, date, and note. When a student ever moves or tries another academy that also runs OLM, they bring their full lineage — not a self-reported belt and a story about their old gym. You verify years of history in seconds.
One profile. Every OLM academy.
Training journal entries, class check-ins, and belt history are keyed to the member, not locked to your database. New members walk in with real, verifiable progression — and the ones who leave keep their journal. Athletes respect that.
Training journal with AI coach
After class, members log tags or drop a voice note. OLM maps their game to an 8-axis chart — Guard, Passing, Submissions, Sweeps — and coaches them on weak areas.
Seminar & open-mat billing
One-off Stripe charges for seminars, private lessons, or drop-ins. Flat 3% platform fee — proportional to ticket size, no monthly subscription on top.
Churn alerts before they quit
AI Monitor watches attendance patterns and flags members 14 days before they churn. You text them, not an apology email after they cancel.
Waivers that hold up
Finger-drawn e-signatures, SHA-256 audit trail, IP stamp. Minor forms with parent second-signer. Annual auto-renewal reminders.
