Korean Military Arts Federation

The Mission of Korean Military Arts Federation is to:

1. Be a worldwide membership organization, for those living outside the Korean peninsula, who desire to participate in an officially-sanctioned, Korea-based traditional Korean Military Arts body.
2. Provide foreigners the opportunity to engage in military art training, education, and activities, conducted at the same level as those conducted within the peninsula.
3. Allow members the opportunity to travel to Korea to participate in learning experiences and activities or to have the opportunity to have Korean Masters and Grandmasters conduct educational opportunities outside Korea under foreign sponsorship.
4. Allow foreigners the opportunity to obtain the same rank recognition, Master and Grandmaster certification, instructor licensing, and school licensing, as practitioners resident within Korea currently enjoy.
5. Provide members, of Dan grade, the opportunity for dual membership in one affiliate Kwon for each military art in which the member holds KMAF Dan grade.
6. Establish and maintain a resident training center in the Republic of Korea; and, a training facility in and for any geographic region in which the KMAF membership base will sustain such a facility.
7. Provide an integrated curriculum which supports a holistic learning experience in the full spectrum of education and training needed to become a true Korean Military Arts Master and practitioner; and, which is underwritten by academic authority.
8. Act as a facilitator for practitioners of other military art traditions, or with impaired or pseudo-Korean credentials, to become a part of the mainstream traditional Korean Military Arts community, with valid credentials based upon demonstrated competence.
9. Serve as the representative, within the Republic of Korea, of the worldwide foreign community of traditional Korean military arts practitioners, trained to Korean standards and holding legitimate Korean credentials, advising and informing the officials within Korea as to the needs and concerns of the foreign practitioners.
10. Preserve a single worldwide standard for the traditional Korean Military Arts, a standard set by Korea and maintained by Korean Military Arts Federation in the outside world.
