About Us
The CMAA was founded in 2002 as a National Supporting Body for all Martial Arts (one of the largest recreational activities in the world) and has grown to be one of the largest groups in the United Kingdom. Run by a genuine martial artist our aim is to bring all styles together in a fair, equal and open minded manner. The CMAA recognises all known styles whether they are Traditional, Freestyle or Mixed and with several thousand members throughout the United Kingdom and Europe we would invite any Instructor or Student from any style to join. The most important thing to note is we do not interfere in the lawful management of your club(s) as we never forget it is your choice to join us, we are simply here to SUPPORT YOU.
