JOINING WUMA AS AN INSTRUCTOR

ABOUT THE WORLD UNITED MARTIAL ARTS FEDERATION

WUMA was formed in 1989 by Master Richard "Deadly Dicker" Hopkins and associates. Through the years the Federation has grown into something to be proud of. In 1998 Master Hopkins received an Hall of Fame award from the WHFSC (World Head of Family Sokeship Council) This council is made up of many Masters from all over the world who now back what we do.

The WUMA are looking for people to run more events and seminars in their area. If you wish to do this you will receive full support from the Federation. Most new members we get come from word of mouth, an Instructor joins up and then passes the word onto his associates. We are quite proud of this fact as it proves to us that we must be treating everyone right. We are un-political, we don't mind if a WUMA member is also a member of other groups, or competes in other groups events, in fact we push this to happen as the more experience one gets the better, especially within the arts. UK members will have the chance of entering the British Open Series of events. These are regular events held throughout the year in England, Scotland & Wales with the winners in each category at the end of the year fighting off for the Overall British Title "The way it should be done". Competitors also get the chance to compete in the WUMA World Championships held throughout the world every 2 years.
