Growth doesn’t fail schools.
Lack of leadership systems does.
At the Wasatch Instructor Summit, Tory Mitchell Sa Bom—successful studio owner (Denver, CO)—shares the leadership framework that transformed how his schools grow, scale, and protect culture.
Growth Through Leadership is a practical, proven look at how to build assistant instructors who don’t just help…
they multiply impact, reduce burnout, and carry your culture forward.
In this session, Mitchell Sa Bom breaks down:
• How growth becomes a problem without leadership systems
• Why focusing on building leaders, not just students, changes everything
• How to identify the right students to invest in
• Simple leadership responsibilities that build confidence and ownership
• Creating assistant instructor roles that support—not depend on—the head instructor
• Why students really quit (and how leadership keeps them engaged)
• How assistant instructors protect culture as schools scale
This isn’t theory.
It’s a repeatable system that’s given Peak Martial Arts:
✔️ A strong leadership pipeline
✔️ Protected culture
✔️ Long-term stability and growth
