Welcome to the AMAI

Martial Arts Organization AssociationWelcome to the American Martial Arts Institute (AMAI).  We are dedicated to helping students and instructors reach their full potential as martial artists.

Students who train at an AMAI affiliated school can expect the best martial arts training available from certified instructors.  Some of the exciting arts you may find being taught at your local AMAI schools include:  Taekwondo, Tai Chi, Weaponry, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, KUBs, Leadership programs, character development, child abduction prevention, bully programs, and more.  AMAI students can also enjoy  participating in our National Championship Tournament Program.

School owners who join the AMAI have access to all of our martial arts curriculum programs in addition to exceptional programs such as safetyNETkids, High Octane Demo Team Program, and the AMAI student tournament circuit.  We also provide direct business development support such as organizational planning and marketing information to help you succeed.

Video: New & Improved Competitions for the 2012-2013 Season

Starting with the Destin Nationals on June 8 & 9, we have made a few changes to the available tournament competitions.  Check out our video that demonstrates the changes to the Speed Kicking competition and the new Advanced Kicks Board Break competition.

 

Speed Kicking:

We will be kicking body shields rather than clapper targets.  For the Black Belt Speed Kick competition, we have replaced the spin kicks with front flutter kicks.

Advanced Kicks:

We have added an Advanced Kick Board Breaking competition for students age 13 & up.  This is also an option for adults who would like to do a breaking event but choose not to break concrete blocks.

Weaponry:

We now have two categories for weapons, and AMAI Master Members can earn points in both events.  We have AMAI Weapons Form and Creative Weapons Form.

Registration:
