This document discusses the business plan for White Tiger Kenpo Jujits, a martial arts school focusing on private lessons for adults. It identifies problems with traditional group class models, such as feeling embarrassed or learning at the pace of the group. The business aims to teach private lessons at group rates for students ages 13 and older, at their own pace and schedule. The target market is adults aged 18-30 seeking self-defense training. Startup expenses are low since lessons will be held in a converted pole barn, requiring little equipment or supplies.

Very little equipment or supplies where needed to get up and running.Inventory is purchased as we go when the students order items. Except for t-shirts which will only be about $200.00 a year.
