Breaking a martial art contract

[Balrog]

How would you justify a club needing contract terms beyond a month at a time say?

I personally keep clear of any MA school that uses contracts. It instantly makes me weary of the club.

It shouldn't. I use contracts because I use a billing company to collect the dues. In addition, it allows me to do revenue forecasting.

If a school has to rely on a contract to keep the cash flowing, rather than the quality of the teaching or services offered, then there's seriously something wrong here.

It's basic business. And like it or not, schools are businesses first. The instruction is what keeps the cash flowing. The contract allows the school owner to do cash projections, revenue forecasting, etc., all of which are necessary to the survival of the business.
