How To Teach Martial Arts in a YMCA or Rec Center
Posted by Mike Massie on June 29, 2009
Starting-A-Martial-Arts-School.com and MASAInetwork.com member Don O’Neal posted an excellent article on his MASAInetwork.com blog explaining how you can get your program into a YMCA or rec center:

(Hint: Be sure to register when you hit the site – it’s free!)
The martial arts social networking site for instructors.
This is an excellent primer on how to get your foot in the door by presenting yourself in a professional manner.
I’d have to say that the #1 reason instructors aren’t offered spots at YMCAs and rec centers has to do with not being taken seriously due to not presenting their program in a professional manner.
Check out the article – it’ll help you avoid making that mistake. Oh, and be sure to message Don to thank him for contributing the article on the MASAInetwork.com site.
Until next time,
