Tar et Customers
Tae Kwon Do is a Martial Art that almost everyone can start at any time. We accept students
above the age of 3 up to any age as long as it medically appropriate to perform moderate
physical activity. However, most students fall in the age group between 5 and 14 years of
age.
Our goal will be to have approximately 100 students within the first year. We do limit the
amount of students per class. Once a class' capacity is exceeded a new schedule will be
assigned to lower the number of students per class. This is vital in ensuring the highest level
of instruction. The following is the Breakdown by Age in our Los Angeles school; we
strongly believe that numbers will be similar if a location at Landmark Plaza were to open:

Student Trends
The following are trends that have been observed at our Los Angeles Facility.
• A large number of students enroll with a sibling or classmate from school
• Students are often referred by a neighbor or classmate
• Parents carpool with neighbors and/or their child's classmate to save time and money
• In most cases students are dropped off and then picked up at the end of class
*Our proposed space is located in Landmark Plaza surrounding by Vons Market in South and
Nail Salon in East and Residential area in North; a large percentage of parents' use the time
their child is in class as an opportunity to get the days grocery shopping done. It is our
opinion that this trend will contribute to other businesses at the center and the community
also.

E ui ment and Invento
Our Tae Kwon Do School emphasizes on high quality Instruction. Tae Kwon Do helps
students develop both their physical abilities and mental discipline. Class can be conducted
with little to no equipment. Forms, for example, are a sequence of movements that are used
against imaginary opponents. A great deal of punching and kicking techniques are taught
without the use of targets, however targets are used for a part of class. The targets we use are
made of high quality materials, some of which have 15 year warranties. It is rare that a target
has to be replaced.
All Uniforms, sparring equipment, weapons are purchased in bulk at a discounted rate from a
full service Martial Arts store, these items are ordered upon a student sign up.
Staffin Plans Em lo ee
The number of students per class is limited; therefore a large staff is not required. There will
be 1 Masters (employees) per class with 1-2 Instructors and 1-2 Student/Assistant Instructors.
Student Instructors volunteer at least once a week as part of their Leadership Training these
are students that want to obtain their Black Belt.
