People Believe What They See, Not What They Hear

I’ve been working from the Ford dealer this morning, as I just dropped my truck for a couple thousand of services and decided to work from here.

   Gotta make sure my baby good to go before I drive to Georgia for my birthday next week.

I’m looking forward to some good times with some good friends on the mountain.

Anyway, I was listening to some training between meetings and creating, and the speaker said that people believe what they see, not what they hear.

   That made sense to me.

So I started thinking about all the ways we apply the principle to help more people get started at KMMA.

Well, we offer our 2 week free trial and orientation program, so that people can not only see, but experience for themself.

   And we have great written and video testimonials.

Then I though, maybe more printed materials during the trial and orientation program…

The I had a great idea! (maybe)

    What if I GAVE you free access to my virtual dojo, so you can actually watch our classes in action!

We created the virtual dojo as a back-up to our live classes back during the pandemic.

   My students love it for when they travel or otherwise can’t make their class in person.

How would you like to join in to watch and/or participate with your family?

   For free, as my special guest!

If you’re interested, just reply and say “tell me more” and I’ll get you some details!

Prepare To Live; Empower To Lead!

I started training at KMMA with two of my children a couple of years ago. I wanted to get them into more active hobbies, learn self-discipline, and work toward something that takes a long time to achieve. I believe it’s valuable to learn early, the feeling that comes from achieving something you’ve worked hard for. Additionally, I decided to train with them, to share something with them I loved to do when I was younger and to get myself back into shape after a bad injury and years of being sedentary.

In a short period of time, I’ve seen so much growth in them, their confidence in particular. They absolutely love all the sensei at KMMA who make every class fun and engaging, and friendships they’ve made from working with their training partners. I have also seen a lot of growth in myself, my stamina and flexibility have improved considerably, but most of all the tremendous sense of pride I have watching my children grow every day and getting to share this journey with them. There is no doubt they will be incredible leaders and blackbelts due to the lessons instilled in them by all the amazing sensei, and the lessons of Grand Master. I’m so glad we decided to join the KMMA family.
