TIGER-ROCK MARTIAL ARTS Franchise Analysis

In the crowded fitness landscape, Tiger-Rock Martial Arts carves a niche with its family-oriented programs blending self-defense, discipline, and community events under a proprietary teaching method. Item 19 disclosures paint a picture of steady revenue streams from required member minimums, while recent system contraction hints at market pressures. What does this mean for investors eyeing a dojo that demands 60-80 members monthly—resilience or a red flag?

Item 7 outlines the initial investment range of $195,450 to $370,450, covering build-out for academies targeting youth, adults, and tiger-cubs, plus ongoing fees like an $8 per member royalty, $199 monthly Tiger-Rock App charge, $500-$650 digital marketing fee, and $339-$499 Grow Group consulting. Franchise fee sits at $39,000, with franchising since 2008 from Lenexa, KS headquarters. Item 19 reveals average gross revenues of $330,009 and medians of $292,579 across 95 franchise locations (plus 2 corporate), suggesting solid performance if you hit enrollment targets, though variability means top performers likely drive the average higher.

System health shows a slight dip from 97 locations in 2023 to 95 in 2024 (-2% growth), but with 9 projected new units and 9 transfers, expansion intent persists amid 12 SBA loans averaging $417,283 and a low 8.3% default rate. This indicates accessible financing without excessive risk, fitting for a service-based model in specialized fitness. For buyers, the numbers signal viability in a passion-driven sector, but scrutinize local competition and your sales hustle to sustain those member thresholds—profitable if you build the community, challenging otherwise.
