Startup costs are typically around $1,000 to $5,000, depending on the pads, gloves and bags you buy and the venue you rent. These are estimates, so price your gear and venue hire before you commit.

Monthly revenue is typically estimated at around $500 to $3,500, depending on class numbers, attendance and your prices. That is revenue before venue hire and other costs. You can typically start with around 6 hours a week.

Check general liability insurance and whether the venue requires you on its policy. Also check signed waivers and parental consent for minors, insurance terms before allowing sparring, whether your city or county requires a business license, CPR and first aid training, and venue rules.
