Hospitality is about people.
Yet, the community lost connection.
The shared moments, the craft, the stories told across tables and counters - this is the essence of hospitality.
Yet over time, the energy that once fuelled the industry.
The craftsmanship, the camaraderie, Began to fade.
During his MBA journey, Paul Ayyash realised the industry needed more than just skills, It needed community, support, and clarity to move forward.
To provide hospitality professionals with the strategic roadmap, education, and mentorship needed to take their next step.
Inspired by the discipline and immersive training of a dojo, Hospo Dojo is more than just a learning hub — it’s a community.
It’s a journey to remind us of what makes hospitality special.

Real Stories, Real Growth
"Working with Paul has really streamlined the process of opening up stores. Having designed our kitchen layout, now it’s pretty much cut and paste for every store. I would definitely recommend Paul’s consulting services to other restaurants. His knowledge of the business is very high. Ed Square and Surfers Paradise were two hard sites that we had to get over the line and Paul worked endlessly to get it done."
Enzo Marturano
"Taking Hospo Dojo's courses has been incredible. I learned so much from 'Mastering Pizza with Matteo Ernandes,' 'From Vision to Hospo Success: Your Roadmap,' and 'Foundations of a Successful Chef.' Chef Matteo's pizza skills are top-notch, the business tips were super practical, and the foundational skills were just what I needed. These courses really boosted my confidence and skills in the kitchen!"

"Hospo Dojo's courses are worth every minute. 'Mastering Pizza with Matteo Ernandes' 'From Vision to Hospo Success: Your Roadmap' gave my staff the tools to succeed, and 'Foundations of a Successful Chef' was just our staff needed to hone their skills. These courses have made a huge difference for me as a multi-venue owner."
