You know how so many modern martial art organizations just leave great teaching to chance, where there is no real course of study to become a great modern martial art coach?
Which means that so many times martial art instructors have poor client retention, ineffective business processes and inevitably are unable to have a sustainable martial art process in their gym. Well what we do is not leave world class coaching to chance. We focus on developing you as a coach, so that you can be a success in your martial art business, in how you teach and secure lasting client retention.
Which means that in order to achieve this we have set-up a world-class martial art coaching program. This Trainers Program consists of the following,
Interaction
Through our online discussion boards, instant chat, and twitter you are able to interact with licensed CMD Trainers and fellow Trainers-in-Training. Joining in our lively on-going discussions with other CMD Trainers from all over the world, you can debate, trouble shoot and share experiences of your martial art business and journey. In addition ask a question and you will get individual support from qualified CMD Trainers.
Support
In the CMD we have a robust and accessible support system. Not only can you directly interact with Rodney King, CMD’s creator either online or via e-mail, but along with your assigned CMD Mentor, our online discussion groups and our yearly Trainer Clinics, support is always close at hand.
Mentoring
One of the unique aspects of the CMD Trainers Program is that every new Trainer-in-Training is assigned a licensed and accomplished CMD Trainer who will be their mentor for the duration of the program. Your mentor acts as your sounding board for your ideas, frustrations and champions your success. Your Mentor is your go to person, who already having completed their Trainer-in-Training journey, is a valuable resource and motivator for your personal journey in becoming a licensed CMD Trainer.
Teaching Materials
CMD is always working hard on bringing cutting edge learning resources to its Trainers. In November 2009 we officially launched our Trainers Learning Management System. The goal is to have ALL of the teaching material you need to coach the entire foundational course offerings of CMD up by the end of 2010. The first of this course material is already live, with new course material been added monthly. The Learning Management System combines animation, audio, written works and video in a complete multi-media experience. The system tracks your progress, as well as offering you quizzes to test your knowledge and a whole lot more. The idea behind the CMD’s Learning Management System is to offer you the Trainer-in-Training a one stop solution to teach your very fist lesson and onwards. In addition you will gain access to our world-class online virtual gym at www.crazymonkeypro.com, which is packed with 100’s of theme driven video content on almost all the aspects off the CMD program. The online gym is updated weekly with new content. Finally you are also given exclusive access to our Trainers Only Blog. This blog covers the latest innovations in the program, articles relating to running a successful martial art business, tips and strategies.
Face-To-Face Learning Opportunities
Included in your yearly Trainers license fee you are entitled to attend one of our 4-Day intensive Trainers Clinic. This is your opportunity to really learn, develop your teaching game and interact with other CMD Trainers from around the world. In addition regular CMD seminars are held all over the world that you may attend as a Trainer-In-Trainer at no extra charge.
Represent A Unique Brand
Crazy Monkey Defence is NOT an organization. Outside of it being a functional, dynamic and ‘realistic’ modern martial art program it is a brand. In that sense CMD is about community, about a client centred focus, delivered from a deep sense of social consciousness, personal transformation and ethical business practices.
When you join CMD you join a Team and a brand with global appeal. CMD is spreading all over the world. We don’t want to say this ‘spread’ is fast, because we are not trying to be fast, but rather to establish a community of like-minded trainers and clients who see modern martial arts a positive vehicle to become champions not only on the mat but in life as well.

SOME TOP TESTIMONIALS FOR RODNEY KING, CMD'S CREATOR & YOUR FUTURE COACH
Rodney King has a unique understanding of martial arts, synthesizing the best of modern MMA with the deepest knowledge of the connections of the mental game with the physical game. He has honed this somatic approach with the attitude and analysis of a modern scientist, lifting somatic martial arts from the realm of ritual and superstition and providing a coherent training path that all can follow to allow lessons learnt in training to have positive effects on daily life whilst retaining “effective” martial arts training. Fred Stevens PhD - Scientist
If you are an executive or professional looking to get more out of your life and career, Rodney King is someone you need to meet. Rodney delivers a powerful personalized coaching experience that engages his clients physically, intellectually, creatively and emotionally. The result is a richer understanding of yourself and the world that will have a positive impact on everything you do. Jonathan Moore M.S., J.D. - Director Big 4 Accounting and Professional Services Firm Rodney’s coaching will prepare you for self-defense and equally, if not more importantly, for successful encounters in life and career through an individualized and client-centered approach to martial arts that combines progressive, coherent, and realistic physical self-defense skills in a nonthreatening and positive environment where learning is not impeded by the fear of injury, aggression, or embarrassment prevalent in many martial arts programs and gyms around the world. Richard G. Salamone, Ph.D. - Psychologist
Rodney King is one of the most thoughtful and innovative martial artists in the world today. By focusing on the mental aspects of learning and performance, he is redefining the way that martial arts are viewed, taught, and experienced. He knows that success in any endeavor requires more than knowledge or physical ability – that the mental game will drive the outcome. With the acumen of an experienced and mindful coach, Rodney can help you shape your future, attain your goals and perform to your full potential. Professor, Dr. Randy Borum PsyD - Board Certified in Forensic Psychology (ABPP)
Rodney King is a multi-faceted, multi-talented individual who possesses a great vision for the world of sport, business and life. He is a world-class athlete and coach and he is a thought leader in his field. That is a potent combination. He is one of the world’s leading edge sports thinkers and one of the most innovative coaches in the martial arts. Bill Cole MS, MA- Performance Psychologist & President of the International Mental Game Association
