kenpo4life Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 My school is only 6 months. If people enjoy the training, why are such long contracts needed? If my survival means your total destruction, then so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkdBill Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 My school is only 6 months. If people enjoy the training, why are such long contracts needed?They are not needed, but they are good for business. Six month contract is fine too. Even if people enjoy training, external things happen that cause people to want to "take a break" from training. Sometimes these things happen in bunches. In my experience, these "breaks" often end up becoming permanent. My students who have considered taking a "break" but don't because of their contract always end up glad that they stayed.If you have little or no overhead and are not depending on the income, contracts are not needed. If you are a full-time professional martial arts instructor, contracts let you focus on your training and your program because you are not not so worried about who will pay you this month or next month.Contracts are certainly abused by some, but the instructors on this forum are surely ethical enough to use them for the benefit of both the student and the business. Make no mistake about it, contracts provide a benefit for both sides as long as both sides are honorable.-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
