Hey guys! What’s everyone’s challenges right now? For us it’s finding more assistant coaches, especially for kids classes. What’s yours?

We are just passing our yr mark but still having major issues getting our name out there. Especially since we just moved back into a garage style training environment, but when funds are low you do what you have to do.

Well, we started in our garage, teaching my Law Enforcement staff our self-defense program. We eventually partnered with a gym in our local mall, and things "boomed" for us, we gained like 10 more students. Which was a lot for us in the first week. But around 4 months into the partnership, I found out he was not cleaning the gym at all when I was not there, and it was just too unclean. I picked up his tile mats and my feet stuck to the floor type dirty. I told him I could not have children training if he refused to try and keep it clean when I am not there. So, we discontinued and moved back into a garage style gym. Needless we lost all but 5 memberships, but I could not keep them training in that. They said if we had a "commercial location" they would join again. So, we are starting over once again.
