Michael Porreca:
My name is michael baumann, (adopted) I have PK'd and FR'd since 2004. In 2012 i opened a gym and started offering classes. Currently i have around 6 students that are solid. The rest are off and on or only come in for open gym. im always looking for resources to help better myself and the service that i offer to my students. i want to watch them grow. Currently my class is ran out of a x-fit gym that has concrete/carpet floors and a padded sparring room in back. Couple of pommels and extra pads are mine but all the wood boxes and tires we use belong to the x-fit guys. Wed and friday we condition and train on various things beginner and advanced. sundays we have open gym. And as im sure a lot of you have seen. Not a whole lot of people are willing to do the work. On a typical wed/fri there is Me, a kid named kyle. and maybe 2-3 other ppl. sometimes just me. but sundays we usually get 5-15 people. I want to know many things
1. How do i get higher interest?
2. what plan would get us better equipment
   2.b Are their grants or other funds available to an entrepreneur?
3. Are there classes or other structured designs to help train my guys?
4. What is a good rate to charge for group classes vs private classes?
5. And mostly im stuck on where to go next.
6. Save money, buy/build equipment, events, coverage, misc

Lots of things for sure and i appreciate everything that anyone gives me info on. I will be reading the threads that are on here in hopes to answer some of these questions.....

OH p.s. If anyone has simple/cheap to build blueprints for boxes and willing to send a copy please do. Can use all the help available. Thanks everyone. and hello of course think i might of missed that part
