Just fishing for thoughts here. what does everybody think about teaching out of the home. Does it look to unprofessional. And what is the best way to draw students. asking on personal opinions of course.

I used to teach out of the home, but I found a few issues the came up. One, space was limited. Two, life kept interupting. Three, it's pretty discouraging when you only have one or two students and you expect them to show up and they don't. Four, unless you already know your students well, do you really want to open your home to them?

I have been very fortunate in that this last year I have had a room rent free. My senior assistant has ownership of a vacant building and supplied a place for our dojo at no cost. However, the building will soon be coming down completely for renovations.
I am in the process of preparing my garage to be our new location. I don't teach children or many citizens. My normal students are military, LEO, EP or security. For those of you training in this type of setting, or teaching out of your garage, what pointers could you advise me in.
Thank you in advance.:asian:

i dont think its unprofessional. i use to do my private lessons on the weekends at my home when i was single. i did them after i had kids, but my mother made me realize i have a responsibility to protect my family, and you never really know your students and what kind of people they are.
if you have children or a wife, i would not invite strangers (including students you knew for a few months) to your home.
