In your own words, please write a paragraph about how the owner or partners got interested in starting this business. Is the owner the first person in their family to own a business? Did they have a career before starting this business? Were there any specific challenges they faced in opening or keeping the business open?

How did KickForce Start? In 2011, we opened doors at KickForce Martial Arts as an independent program in Kearny Mesa inside of Flip Force (that was the inspiration behind our name). As is the case with any new venture, we faced many challenges in the beginning such as teaching in a small room with mixed flooring (which made certain exercises difficult due to the risk factor), a shortage of resources to train with and minimal experience as business owners. However, none of that mattered because we instantly had the loyal support of a few devoted families. We drew motivation from their vote of confidence and used it to get us to where we are today. In 2022 we had the opportunity to open our doors to the north county community ( Encinitas) and since then have continued to meet, and inspire more incredible families!

Explain why a customer should consider your business instead of going to a competitor.

Customers enjoy our business because of our lifeskill driven program. Through martial arts, we are able to deliver important life lessons such as confidence, discipline, belief, and communication.

What extra services do you offer that people might not know about? For example, restaurants might offer catering and Car Washes might offer shampooing of seats and carpet.
