From John Graden: "I started martial arts at age 13 in a classic dungeon dojo. My instructors were really good, but the way they taught us drove more students away than were coming in, so eventually the schools, like many, had to close.

When I opened my school, I taught the same way. Sure enough, within six months I was losing money so fast, I was considering closing my school too.

But I made a decision that changed my life and has changed the lives of thousands of other martial arts school owners and instructors since 1993.

I made the decision to find out what it takes to earn a six-figure income while still producing good black belts. I was not going to become a McDojo.

I started calling and visiting the best schools in the world. Schools where the owner had a six-figure income and the students were top quality.

What I discovered was that the style didn't matter. Whether it was a MMA, Karate, Kenpo, Kung Fu, Jiu Jitsu, Kickboxing, Tae Kwon Do, Japanese, Okinawan, Korean, Chinese or American school. I learned that the only style that matters is the teaching style of the instructors.

I also learned that in all of these schools, there were consistent key elements and processes in place that are not hard to duplicate regardless of your location, demographics, or the economy.

After I learned these important systems, I implemented them in my schools and the results were nothing short of life changing. I went from barely 100 students to 600 within two years. I had a six figure income and paid off my first house in less than three years.

I was so excited about my success that I wanted to share the information with other black belts like yourself. So I wrote my first book, "Black Belt Management" which was a huge success. I then created NAPMA and Martial Arts Professional Magazine, which was widely credited with bringing the martial arts profession into the modern age.

In 2004, I created the Martial Arts Teachers' Association (MATA) to provide martial artists worldwide a huge library of resources and an opportunity to network, share, and belong to a prestigious global organization.

I've created martialartsschoolowners.com so that you would have a central resource to find out the latest and greatest ways to grow your school."

“I've been studying Mr. Gradens work for the last seven years. I trust Mr. Graden's guidance and teaching. His unique approach of hands on drills for learning are simply put the best way to learn. Since working with him through the MATA, we had doubled our enrollments every month this year. Our monthly income has nearly doubled. The income we made on new enrollments paid for the MATA for the next decade.
