Karate studies generally seek the best way to attract business and motivate new students to take an interest in martial arts, self-defense, and discipline. Adding attractive signs is a great way to grab the attention of the meek and listless or energetic and undisciplined and bring them into your studio. Here’s a rundown of the 8 best karate studio poster ideas.

Garden signs

Using yard signs for advertising in your neighborhoods and around local hot spots like schools, daycare centers, and grocery stores is a great way to build your school’s reputation and gain awareness. Include the name and phone number of your dojo, and the variety of classes it offers to both children and adults. Be sure to list the benefits and strengths of enrolling in your martial arts studio.

Vinyl banner

Hang an eye-catching and demanding billboard over your martial arts studio to attract potential students. The strong design and motivational message designed with a large font is easy to read from a distance and extremely motivating. Keep your message direct and add a motivating image. A large outdoor sign is the ideal way to celebrate a grand opening or announce a new promotion. Posters must also be used at all events. Martial arts posters are the perfect way to announce your dojo’s top students, celebrate the belt test, or promote an upcoming competition.

Wall decals

Increase motivation within your karate studio by using decorative vinyl. These fabric decals are reusable, can be cut to any shape, and are specifically designed to be applied anywhere without causing damage. Cut a reusable decal in the shape of a martial arts teacher or a specific move and place it around the walls of the dojo and competitions to motivate students, teach about the moves, and emphasize skill mastery.

Vinyl lettering

Vinyl letters are cut to the shape of your school schedule and the studio name adds a professional look to any business and is a common way to share information. You can also list your classes along the windows, such as Kids Classes, Self Defense, and After School Program, as a way to inform the community and potential enrollees of what you offer.

Vinyl decals

Add impact to the front of your studio by using vinyl decals that can be printed for a variety of uses. Vinyl decals are a sticky material that works great for adding window appeal and attracting attention. They are made to go outside so they are weather resistant and better suited to tinted windows, but can also be printed inside out and cut into any shape. Cut to size a vinyl decal in the shape of your dojo emblem or create a window sign listing your services in full color.

Window clips

Enrollment Specials and Enrollment Promotions are a great way to increase student enrollment. Add window stickers promoting your upcoming classes and promotional offers to attract new business. These are also great for special self defense classes, after school registration, and tournament dates. Window stickers can also be used as fun and motivational decorations for classroom mirrors. Continue your wall decals in the classroom by cutting out ornaments in the form of poses or martial arts instructions as a fun way to motivate students to check their poses.

One-way vision

If your study classroom is covered with distracting windows and peeping spectators, one-way vision is ideal for advertising on your windows while still blocking visibility from outside. The material is solid from the outside and visible from the inside, offering great noticeable publicity and privacy, but still letting in light.

Car stickers

Let your parents and students promote your dojo using car stickers. Car stickers are a great way to show off student activities and promote your study of karate. Car stickers can be placed on the windows of parent vehicles with the name and emblem of the dojo and personalized with the student’s name. This is a great way to allow students to spread the word about their school.
