OK, I sure didn’t do this to get on any VIP list at the next martial arts trade show in Las Vegas. Infact, this program is going to upset a few people. After spending 14 years listening to business gurus, spending over $250,000 on consulting programs and high-dollar seminars where I rubbed elbows with the most successful school owners in the world, I’m convinced .. The great majority of these self-titled martial arts business gurus don’t know the first thing about running a real Dojo. Period. To serve those trying to do it right, I created Running A Dojo to blow-the-lid off the nonsense the martial arts industry is feeding well intended Instructors hoping to offer the best resources for their students.


I'm going to show you exactly how I created a successful Dojo with hundreds of students from all over the world by simply studying my martial arts more intently and keeping it real!


“Adam is one of the most forward-thinking people in the martial arts industry. I’ve seen with my own eyes as top-billed, big-name advisers in the biz were influenced by Adam’s actions. While I believe he would do the same in any business environment, I’m thrilled that he’s been so helpful to me personally, and to the industry in which I work. I always enjoy hearing his thoughts about what will happen next … and if you hear those ideas, pay attention.” Mr. Peter Steeves, International Training Director of the Guardian Angels, and Martial Arts School Owner. Los Angeles.


If you’re not totally satisfied with everything I’ve created, I’m going to refund your investment 100% AND you can keep all of the files I’ve provided. That’s a promise. There is absolutely no risk at all.

I truly look forward to working with you and helping your Dojo meet it’s success.

Generally, so far, it's a great course. Already some great tips just from the first two videos. But I've some questions where I'm seeking some advice.
What I am a bit turned off by is it seems much of the attention/action/movement of the community portion of the course if from a long time ago. It is difficult to tell if the instructor is active with the course. It also seems as if there's an online/live version of similar instruction at the instructor's website.

This is an in-depth course worthy of constant study. I listened to it once over and viewed it on my desktop . I’ll need a notebook the next time I listen to it and watch it . I have never heard a of an attendance board before and it’s an amazing part of the dojo experience .

So far I'm finding good information. Coincidentally I basically schedule my classes in 45 minute blocks already so that's pretty cool - seems like my intuition was right.

Up front, I haven't completed the entire course. I have been unable to "begin" creating a Medieval Martial Arts Academy. Now with some other ideas on "the wheel" being invented, I could use some if not most of what Adam has shared. I invested $13.95 on line. I purchased the softcover and read it completely. I purchased 5 more for gifts to the future cadre of the "Dojo" i am creating. Thank you Adam.
