20 Years Strong | Premier Martial Arts Franchise

Most martial arts schools do not survive their first few years. This Premier Martial Arts academy has operated in the same Kansas market for 20 years, with a loyal, recurring membership base a new owner steps straight into. An experienced program director and instructors run the floor day to day, while the current owner stays part-time on a semi-absentee basis. Premier Martial Arts is a nationally established brand with more than 200 schools across the United States and is part of the Unleashed Brands family. Its structured curriculum spans Karate, Taekwondo, Kickboxing, and Krav Maga, with age-specific programs for children as young as 3, teens, and adults. A new owner steps into a proven system with proprietary curriculum, marketing, and operational support already built. That staying power rests on a following built since 2005, with many members training for 4 or more years and roughly 66% of revenue recurring through monthly memberships. Additional income comes from paid-in-full plans, pro-shop gear, belt testing, workshops, birthday parties, and parents' night out events. Beyond the mat, the academy has earned a reputation as a community leader in self-defense and youth development, the kind of business families return to year after year. Highlights include: Sole Premier Martial Arts school in its Kansas market Protected territory with room to expand into nearby communities Full-time program director and 3 part-time instructors on staff Assignable lease in a high-visibility, high-traffic retail location Equipment, fixtures, and pro-shop inventory included in the sale This resale is a natural fit for a semi-absentee investor who wants an established school with staff already in place, a martial arts instructor ready to step into ownership, or an existing operator adding a protected territory. It will also resonate with a community-minded buyer who values developing confidence and discipline in local families.
