Summary

Episode 253 of the Endless Endeavor Podcast is all about what it really takes to open and run a successful jiu-jitsu academy. A lot of our listeners are passionate practitioners, and I constantly get questions about the business side of things—everything from building the right culture to navigating the day-to-day operations.

In this episode, I share my personal experiences—the wins, the mistakes, and the lessons learned—so that anyone considering opening their own academy can do it with clarity and confidence.

Jiu-jitsu isn’t going anywhere. If you have a genuine passion for the art and the charisma to lead, it might just be the perfect path for you.
