Helping You be Your Best
At GMAU, we’re on a constant quest to improve our courses, instruction, website, and experience for you. We only exist to help you reach your goals.
The GMAU is the Golden Standard for At-Home Martial Arts Instruction
We’ve been working with global distance-training students since 2008. This has led us to create cutting-edge home-study courses that truly work. We hold our instructors, courses, and student support to the highest standard so you receive the best training experience possible.
Rank Earned is Internationally Accredited and Recognized
The Global Martial Arts Association, member instructors, and affiliated schools back your rank and certification.
Rank is Earned, Not Given
We uphold the same standards (if not higher) for our online home-study students.
Rank is recognized by the Global Martial Arts Association, which is an internationally accredited organization of martial-arts instructors.


Spread Abundance by Doing Martial Arts
We believe in serving and spreading abundance for the best and highest good of all.
The Abundance Projects
Each month, a significant portion of our proceeds go to our positive-action initiative, The Abundance Projects.
The primary goal is to motivate martial artists to become leaders in their community and create “abundance projects” that are based in the mindset of prosperity rather than lack or disparity.
