    About KidStage

    KidStage is offering unique and fun-filled franchises. Our opportunity can be a home-based business in which you offer KidStage classes which actually take place in your local schools, day care centers, senior citizen centers, boys and girls clubs, YMCA's etc. No high costs of leasing or purchasing space. You will find KidStage a profitable and high-demand business.

    KidStage is a complete "Performing Arts Learning Center" using ordinary classrooms as our "theatre" in which we teach children self-expression and creativity, as well as give them confidence through their participation in theatrical productions. With overcrowded schools, over-worked teachers and tight school budgets, the extra time and effort needed to help students is practically non-existent. KidStage was formed specifically to solve this growing problem. We have spent over 15 years developing solutions to assist in helping children.

    The success of our programs has propelled us to the point that we are now offering Franchises in selected areas. We are seeking creative, enthusiastic individuals interested in establishing a successful business while at the same time making a positive difference in the lives of children. Most importantly, theatre experience is not necessary!

    About PRO MARTIAL ARTS

    Ed Samane is the founder of the Grandmaster Samane's Karate System, its methods and the Pro Martial Arts franchise program. He began this unique instructional program in 1980 with the belief that karate should teach not only self-defense, but also character by helping to improve overall attitude, self-worth, fitness, assertiveness, and self-awareness in both children and adults. Grandmaster Samane has developed systems and methods for establishing, operating, and promoting successful karate school businesses that provide instruction and training in martial arts techniques, physical fitness techniques, and character-building education. Grandmaster Samane recognized early on that the karate school business provided a niche within the fitness industry and was ripe for innovation. Backed by more than 18 years of industry and entrepreneurial experience, he developed a unique and innovative business model that shifts the paradigm of martial arts instruction and allows people to work in the enjoyable and fast-growing fitness industry as independent business owners. NO PREVIOUS KARATE TRAINING OR BUSINESS EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY TO QUALIFY FOR A PRO MARTIAL ARTS FRANCHISE.
