Retention for martial arts schools.
Belt systems, community and the programs that keep students training for years.
What this covers
Students don't quit martial arts, they quit schools. Most who leave do it in the first few months, before they feel progress or know anyone by name. The notes here are about closing that gap: stripe and belt systems that show progress, buddies and mentors who notice when someone misses class, parents who feel part of it, and a community people would miss if they left.
