Book Description
For over a decade, Small Dojo Big Profits has guided martial arts instructors through the risky yet highly rewarding process of starting and running a highly successful and profitable martial art school. Eschewing the conventional wisdom that says you must have a huge school with 300 or more students to be financially successful, the author instead shows you how to take on less risk while working smarter and not harder by running a lean, mean, efficient martial arts studio operation. Author Mike Massie has started three successful martial arts studios from scratch, and has the distinction of opening his first studio with no start-up capital, zero credit, and in a town where he was a complete stranger. Yet, he was able to go from teaching in part-time locations to running his own full-time studio in under a year, and he achieved this while staying in profit from month one. The process he followed is the same one this book is based upon, and this updated version of Small Dojo Big Profits also draws on the author's experience in starting and growing two more successful studios during the recent mortgage crisis and economic recession. A common sense martial arts school start-up and business operations manual, this completely updated version of the classic martial arts business guide is perfect for anyone who wants to maintain their integrity while building a successful martial art school. If you're looking for the best source of complete information for starting, launching, growing, and running a martial art school from scratch, this is it.

Book Description
Challenge your body with an exciting, increasingly popular martial art. Kickboxing training is hard work and an excellent way to build your body. It is demanding--you must strive for maximum alertness, conditioning, strength, and quickness--but it is also intensely rewarding. Every training session and every fight leads to greater insights into the sport and into yourself as a person and as an athlete. This generously illustrated guide introduces you to all the basics you need to learn in order to step into the ring for your first amateur fight--and win it! Begin by preparing your body through exercises designed to increase your strength and stamina. Develop your triceps, biceps, shoulder muscles, and latissimus muscles for punching; your forearms and wrists for stability; your quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves for kicking; and your abdominal and lower back muscles for necessary support. Learn to control your breathing while running. Next, get to work on boxing skills--jabs, uppercuts, bobbing, and weaving--and kicking skills, including the front kick, football kick, roundhouse kick, and ax kick. Guidance is also offered in ring skills, fighting strategies, choosing equipment, and finding coaches, trainers, promoters, training facilities, and training partners. Before you know it, you'll be in peak physical condition, ready to kickbox your way to victory! 128 pages, 141 b/w illus., 8 x 10.
