There's an old saying; "Knowledge comes through study. Wisdom comes through mistakes". We have made our share along the way, and learned from them. Yet we see many of our fellow martial arts teachers still making these same mistakes. This book will teach you how to avoid those same pitfalls, and instead, profit from our hard earned wisdom.

My name is Mike Patterson and I am a career martial artist. I have been a professional teacher since I was 21 years old. I literally grew up learning this business. And I have learned things that can only be gleaned by being the head of a large commercial school for decades.

My partner author, Andrea Cheng, came into the martial arts business in the early 90's bringing along her "corporate upbringing" having worked as a training manager for a fortune 500 company for many years. The synergy of our two knowledge bases created a business model that far outstripped anything I had ever seen or done in the martial arts business prior to that time.

We began successfully generating profits that were unheard of and we did it teaching exactly what we loved, to adult professionals, only!

We were so successful that we are now retired from such teaching venues and spend our time as we please.

If you are just starting out, or wanting to become a professional martial arts teacher and turn it into your SOLE vocation, this book will take you step by step through the process of how to do just that.
