Case Study: HEMA Alliance manages 10,000+ members and club memberships with TidyHQ

National US Martial Arts group helps memberships with TidyHQ

HEMA Alliance is the national body for Historical European Martial Arts in the United States, coordinating more than 10,000 members and 40+ affiliated clubs. Before TidyHQ, it struggled with manual, error-prone membership tracking, expired renewals, and the need to verify current status for insurance coverage across a volunteer-run federation.

TidyHQ replaced the Alliance’s ad hoc systems with automated membership management, self-serve renewals, status notifications, and club-level verification of member status. Since adopting TidyHQ in 2015, HEMA Alliance has managed 10,000+ memberships, connected 40+ clubs, and tied insurance eligibility to accurate records, giving the organisation a scalable backbone for governance, event funding, and certification.
