Graham Slater's (Chairman / Founder) vision of creating a safe, non-political and friendly learning environment for martial art instructors of all styles from around the globe started in the mid 1980's. Now martial arts instructors can come together and share their experiences / techniques in a literal melting pot of knowledge while being treated as equals irrespective of grades / years of training. This has been Graham's philosophy and the driving motivation behind the association. What People Say About Us Check out our FAQ Page

We feel the more skills / qualifications martial art instructors have, the better equipped there are to operate their club successfully. We track down specialty martial arts business consultants and mentors available to help instructors create a safe, professional and rewarding environment for their students and the general public. Part of our membership revenue goes towards recruiting these specialty consultants to run free or subsidised seminars. This means help is available to every martial arts instructor so there is no excuse because of the price, it is just up to the instructor to allocate the time. A good starting place is the AMACS courses.

DISCUSSIONS: We find many instructors are concerned that they can't get the right sports insurance cover for their Muay Thai school or Kickboxing Club, or Brazilian Jiu Jutsu / Mixed Martial Arts - MMA Club. Some Karate and Taekwondo schools have concerns that their policy doesn't cover tournaments, however the ones we offer include this in our standard policy at no extra cost. We encourage instructors to ask questions about martial arts insurance policy wording so they know what they are actually covered for. Reading the fine print may not always reveal all the answers especially if instructors are not familiar with insurance-speak. Get an instant Insurance Quote - Get Peace of Mind
