Get Involved with the NWMAF!

The National Women's Martial Arts Federation is a member-run organization. We rely on the contribution of time, energy, skills, ideas and of course money that our member donate every year so that we can offer high-quality events as affordably as possible. From the newest NWMAF member to our dedicated all-volunteer Board of Directors, we've kept the flame going for over 30 years.

Sometimes we ask for help with specific tasks. Other times, we need committee members for larger projects, as with the ST Planning Committee. And then there are those inspired moments when you see a way to make our organization better and make it happen.

Here are some ways that you can get involved with the NWMAF:

• Join an NWMAF committee or run for the Board of Directors.

   

• Encourage women and girls to join the NWMAF and attend Special Training.

   

• Volunteer to help at Special Training -- staffing the registration table, running errands for trainers, setting up the bazaar, etc.

   

• Attend and actively participate in the general membership meeting at ST.

   

• Make the NWMAF visible at your school by talking to your instructors and fellow students, setting up a display board and brochures (we can provide these!), posting ST fliers, etc.

   

• Visit another school in your area to let them know about the NWMAF and Special Training.  We will be happy to supply brochures!

   

• Buy a logo item and wear/use it. Wear or display your NWMAF patch.

   

• Work out with another woman martial artist. Share something you learned at ST.

   

• Make a tax-deductible donation .
