  • Why Martial Arts Is Important
    By: Martial Arts aXis | - One thing I have learned to appreciate throughout the years is that martial arts are indeed that, an art. I've tried my hand at a fair share of martial arts and the secret I've learned is that 99% of people are wrong in there view of martial arts. Let me explain.

    By: Toby Milroy C.O.O. NAPMA | - Gee, in our industry it seems like everyone has popped up to offer advice, how do you tell fact from fantasy? Value from Fraud?

  • Locking A Steel Cage Around Your Martial Arts School Student Body
    By: Toby Milroy C.O.O. NAPMA | - It is an unfortunate reality in our business that, despite our best intentions, students quit, for good or bad reasons.

    It is an even more unfortunate reality that many schools do very little to prevent attrition.

    I remember buying a car once. At that time, I did not have a very sophisticated understanding of the sales process. Needless to say, I probably overpaid for the car by at least 10%.

    In retrospect, I learned a valuable lesson from that experience. I ...

  • Lead Conversion In Martial Arts Business
    By: factorten | - In order to cash in on your lead generation systems, every martial business must have a carefully designed lead conversion system or systems place.

    By: factorten | - In order to know if the strategic focus or a vision for the future is actually being achieved, a leader needs to be able to measure things in the organisation.

  • The Leadership Action Martial Arts Business
    By: factorten | - Once a leader has a vision, they need to be able to put this into action. A vision without action is empty, and leaders who have a vision are judged by their ability to enact the vision, to take steps that will actually achieve the vision in or around the time frame described in the strategic objective. It could be said that a vision without action is no vision at all.

    So what action needs to happen? Does the leader have to get on and do the day to day jobs needed to get the vision ...

    By: factorten | - Simply put, a leader is somebody others want to follow. Although we know there is a lot to being a great leader, it is very difficult for most people to say exactly what it is that makes a person a good leader. Of course universities have done many studies on what makes successful leaders and what are the leadership qualities that good leaders have.

    The theory is very simple, though, and can be summarised in the following:

    1. Good leaders have a vision they share wi ...

  • Marketing Plan Of Martial Arts Business

    But recognize that "peak shape" for the average person is much different than "peak shape" for the martial arts Master-Teacher.

  • The Unwritten Code: Part Of Being A Martial Arts Master -- Or A Master Of Anything
    By: Tom Callos | - My martial arts teacher, Ernie Reyes, Sr. follows an unwritten code of behavior. It's his unwritten code of what a Master is -and/or is not. I know it's unwritten, as I've been his student since 1980 and I have read everything there is to read about him and his work. I recognized (finally) this concept last weekend when I observed Mr. Reyes entertain and teach a group of high ranking martial artists. I saw it in the way he dressed, in the way he carried himself, in the way he spoke to the audien ...
