In this episode of Business Fumbles, we sit down with Michael Ham, owner of Ten Tigers Martial Arts in Las Vegas. From training in parks as a kid to running multiple dojo locations, Michael shares his journey of grit, discipline, and entrepreneurship.
We dive into how martial arts teaches kids self-discipline, goal setting, and respect — lessons that carry far beyond the mat. Michael also gets real about parenting challenges, the impact of phones on kids’ focus, and why being a sensei often means wearing many hats: teacher, mentor, janitor, and even parent.
This powerful conversation is about more than karate — it’s about building better kids, stronger families, and resilient communities.
