Our Story

You didn’t start your business to feel stuck, overwhelmed, or constantly fighting fires.
You started it to create freedom, to make an impact, and to build something that truly matters.

At Sabaki Strategic Consulting, we know what it’s like to face challenges that feel bigger than you—because we’ve been there. We understand the late nights, the tough calls, and the pressure to grow without burning out. And we know that success isn’t just about having a plan—it’s about having the right plan, one that plays to your strengths and keeps you balanced in the process.

Our founder, John Roberts, blends over 20 years of martial arts mastery with real-world business success to create a strategic approach unlike anything else. Inspired by the sabaki method—where you use your opponent’s energy to your advantage—we show you how to turn challenges into opportunities, stay ahead of the competition, and achieve the results you’ve been chasing without losing yourself along the way.

We’re here to help you:

  • Find clarity when everything feels chaotic.

  • Create momentum when you’ve been spinning your wheels.

  • Build a business that supports the life you really want to live.

Because in both martial arts and business, victory isn’t just about winning the fight—it’s about walking away stronger, wiser, and ready for the next challenge.

Let’s build your success story together.
