The Nomination Process Begins Here
Your Induction into the United States Martial Arts Hall of Fame is a unique honor as it is comprised solely of martial artists who have made a difference in the lives of others. Each person recognized in this organization has uniquely contributed to the overall development of the martial arts and themselves.
While the majority of our nominees come from former inductees, candidates for induction may be nominated or recommended by anyone. All applications will be formally reviewed and submitted to the USMAHOF nomination committee. YOU MUST BE approved for INDUCTION by one or more USMAHOF committee members. That happens only after the nominee has been properly vetted and had their training history, lineage and background researched.
