There are four ways to work with Grand Master Stephen Oliver: coaching for your school through Martial Arts Wealth Mastery, his free book, booking him to speak, and media interviews. This page explains each and how to get started.
Who the coaching is for
Stephen Oliver coaches professional school owners — traditional martial arts schools, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu academies, MMA gyms, Muay Thai gyms and Krav Maga schools. Members range from single-school operators building their first profitable location to established multi-school organizations doing $1,000,000 and more a year. If you are serious about building a more profitable, higher-impact school, the coaching is built for you.
1. Coaching through Martial Arts Wealth Mastery
Martial Arts Wealth Mastery is the coaching and consulting organization Oliver founded in 2000 as Stephen Oliver’s Inner Circle, continuing the coaching he began in 1985. It combines high-level coaching, peer masterminds, quarterly in-person sessions, monthly problem-solving and staff training. Oliver coaches alongside Grand Master Jeff Smith, Chief of Instruction; Chief Master Greg Moody, Ph.D.; and Bob Dunne, National Director. Read how the coaching works.
2. Start with the free book
Six Simple Steps to Add 100 Students is free at FillYourSchool.com. It is the simplest way to see how Oliver thinks about enrollment before you talk to anyone. His other books, including The Way of the Mile High Maverick, Everything I Wish I Knew When I Was 22 and Extraordinary Teaching with Jeff Smith, are on the Books page.
3. Book Stephen to speak
Oliver has been a keynote and lead speaker at martial arts industry conventions and business seminars since 1985, and has shared the stage with Dan Kennedy, Brian Tracy, Jay Abraham, Tony Robbins and Chuck Norris, among others. Topics, approved bios and photos are in the speaking and media kit.
4. Media and podcast interviews
Producers and journalists can find his approved bios at three lengths, high-resolution photos and past interviews in the media kit. Please style his name as Grand Master Stephen Oliver and his rank as 10th Degree Black Belt.
What to expect from the coaching
The work is practical and specific: marketing that generates enrollments, pricing that supports a real business, curriculum and instruction that keep students long enough to reach Black Belt, and the operational systems that let an owner run a school without living inside it. It is built on five decades of owning and operating schools — including growing Mile High Karate from $10,000 to more than $1,700,000 in annual revenue (approximately $5,200,000 in today’s dollars) by age 25 — not on theory.
