Jeet Kune Do In Southern Wisconsin

[MDVaughn]

Hey guys,
Check out my website at www.realityjkd.com . It's not totally done but it s starting to look good.
I have finally got my own organization under way called Functional Martial arts systems. I am a Phanse one Instructor under Paul Vunak. To learn more about me just check out my site. Brazilian jiu jitsu is also going to be part of my curriculm. I am only second stripe white belt and I am just forming a team for my growth and the growth of others. I have been doing well though winning local tournaments. Hopefully be looking at my blue belt this year.

I wanted to start this thread to hopefully have all you knowledgeable school owners give me some tips of how make a school grow and become sucessfull. The goal of this is to eventually build enough clientle to be able to afford my own gym and i want to make as many right steps as i can to get there.

Thanx for all you help,

Mike Vaughn

Hi,

Good luck with your new school. I visit Madison twice a year to see family. Let me know when you have Erik coming in to teach...I'll try to make it.

Hope you do well,

Good luck on your school Mike... I may be in your neck of the woods in a few months, so maybe I'll check out your school if time permits. I think it's really special when someone can promote the martial arts by opening a school, especially if their true intentions are to teach.

Myself, I have a backyard class of 5 students... We more or less learn from each other through synopsis sparring, self-defense and grappling. But anyway, good luck.

Damn Mike, you lucky SOB, how'd you get so close to a Playboy model?
