What school is this that you speak of?Eric O said:I've heard my instructers say that when opening a school if you can get the kids classes to cover the rent/expenses (which you should be able to) then you make your profit with the adults.
It's not really possible to pull more than 1 or 2 living wages out of most martial arts school. Many ppl do it as a side job.
Many time assistant instructers teach classes and aren't paid.
I've only seen 1 Martial Arts school in NY where 5 ppl were pulling great salaries out of but that gym is an acception and could not be reproduced.
you may not like baseball but honestly i love just as much as mma. baseball is really a chess match and when you have a great pitcher facing a great batter its incredible to watch if you really know the psychology behind the pitches. it takes a lof of thinking and concentration to get into baseball just like it does to enjoy pure grapplingFight_Song said:own a gym to get your money flow. loop some cardio vids on a screen in front of the cardio machines. make your son or daughter the desk monkey. throw some mats on the ground and walls of a decent size room and get to rollin.
i just cant see how a nation can glue their eyes to a screen watching people they dont know play a game called baseball... a game where you can take a nap in the middle of playing and wake up when it's time to play defense.
but.. those same people arent entertained by MMA?
