About the Federation
Founded in 1998 by seven master instructors from four continents, the World Combat Martial Arts Federation exists to unify the world's combat disciplines under a single standard of excellence, safety, and honor.
From striking and grappling to mixed and traditional weapons arts, WTMAF sanctions events, certifies instructors, and preserves the timeless values at the heart of martial arts. We are not merely a governing body — we are a global family of warriors.
Where discipline meets glory, champions are forged.
