The United States Martial Artist Association was formed in 1977 in San Antonio Texas. Over the past years we have grown to be one of the most prestigious associations in the United States.

This organization recognizes individual accomplishments in and out of the studio.  The United States Martial Artist Association began hosting the Annual Hall of Fame Awards Banquet Ceremony in 1999. The U.S.M.A.A. Hall of Fame Induction is the highest honor a martial artist can receive. We have restructured our organization to recognize U.S.M.A.A. members and non-members, Black Belts and non-black Belts alike.

Studio operators and private instructors should feel welcome and participate in this international festivity. The ceremony is held in the summer  in Frederick, Maryland.

If you know of a martial artist that is deserving of this prestigious award, we invite you to complete the nomination ballot as soon as possible. After completing the ballot, inform the individual of your choice that he/she will be receiving information about the Hall of Fame event.

The Hall of Fame has honored representatives from several countries around the world. Some include South America, Mexico, Canada, Japan, France, Germany, Ukraine, Russia, Italy, Iran, India, Saudi Arabia and many others as well as all areas of the United States.

Working seminars and clinics begin at 9:00 in the morning and go through till 2:00 in the afternoon for your education and growth. In the evening, entertainment will accompany the ceremony.

This is a gala affair that you will be speaking about for years to come. For additional information, please contact Grand Master Bill Rankin at the above address or call 1-301-524-7819, e-mail rankinmartialarts@msn.com

I look forward to receiving your ballot and your attendance at the next Induction Ceremony.
