About MAIA's Black Belts In Business

Members get a free digital magazine, webinar replays, seminars and challenges, and the group presents accountability as built into everything it does.[1]

MAIA's YouTube channel, aimed at owners of martial arts schools, carries news, information and business strategy, and links to themaiagroup.com.[2] A history of the martial arts school business in Martial Arts Professional, NAPMA's trade journal, records that the equipment supplier Century Martial Arts set up MAIA in 2001 to act as its consulting arm.[3] Mike Dillard founded Century in 1976 in Oklahoma City.[3] The same history names Frank Silverman as MAIA's executive director and dates the first MA SuperShow, held in Las Vegas, to 2002.[3]
