We ensure every participant is profiled through our administrative system, with results documented on federation-verified certificates that are valid for school activity records and future selection trials. ### Our Competitive Ecosystem We host multi-discipline gatherings including the National Martial Arts Games (NMAG), the Ambedkar National Games, and the Indian Combat League. These are not merely exhibitions; they are recognized selection trials backed by the Dr. B. R. Ambedkar Sports Foundation, which holds consultative status with the UN. ### Disciplines and Formats We offer a wide range of competition categories to ensure inclusivity, including: * **Modern Martial Arts:** Karate (Kata and Kumite), Taekwondo, Kickboxing, Grappling (Gi and No-Gi), and Contact Karate. * **Traditional Sports:** Silambam, Mallyuddha, and other ancient disciplines we actively work to preserve. * **Fitness & Combat:** Armsport, Rope Skipping, Yoga, and Bodybuilding. ### The Pathway for Athletes and Clubs Our events operate on a strict, professional framework. Athletes compete under the banner of affiliated clubs, ensuring every win contributes to a verifiable athletic history. * **Accreditation:** All registered athletes receive standardized ID cards and are listed in official championship rosters. * **Pathway to International Play:** Podium finishers are scouted for national contingents sent to international events under TAFISA and other global partners. * **Logistics:** We utilize premium infrastructure, specifically the Talkatora Indoor Stadium, to provide standardized changing rooms, warm-up zones, and safety protocols for all participants. ### Official Affiliation If you represent a dojo or sports club, our championships provide the primary platform to field your team. We handle the technical certification and official documentation, allowing your institution to display federation logos and validate your students' progress through recognized Kyu-grade exams. ## About National Martial Arts Academy We founded the National Martial Arts Academy to build a transparent, science-backed ecosystem for Indian athletes. My family and I run this with the goal of connecting grassroots talent with the national podium, ensuring every participant gets a fair, verified shot at international recognition.
