Welcome to the American Combat Arts Federation

The ACAF was established to facilitate research, development, and progression of the combative martial arts. We offer a non-political merit oriented professional membership organization to martial artists, self defense instructors in the military and civilian sectors who wish to work together as a network of instructors.

We are open to anyone. We're home to active and retired service members, law enforcement officers, and civilian martial arts instructors and students. Whether for fitness, instruction, growth or commercial benefit, we are here for you.

Our state of the art learning management system provides digital streaming of instructor certification courses, downloads of curriculum aids, and other digital content to help you grow and prosper today. Join us!
