Infinity Martial Arts is business that teaches martial arts in Middleton, WI. The schools owner, Mike Welch, needed a website on which to provide class schedules, program information, media, and a simple means of contact. The website also needed to be expandable for later modification and implementation of a back-end area where students would be able to log in and access curriculums, books, etc. The back-end will likely have another feature set for the parents of students, allowing them to access information specific to their child.

The website was built all in PHP with a design created in Adobe Photoshop.

Update: Recently, Mike returned for a redesign and implementation of video on the site. With the new design came an installation of WordPress.

I customized categories to create CMS functionality, and the installation enabled them to have a blog where they can post news about the school and upcoming events.

With WordPress, the site became very easily editable, and thanks to how simple the template system is in WordPress, updating the design elements of the site will be very easy. WordPress plugins were used to limit items in category lists, change the login page, and customize the display of the sidebar. Launching the blog will assist in creating some interactivity on the site, where students can come to ask questions of instructors and talk to each other.
