About Canadian Alliance of Martial Arts

The Canadian Alliance of Martial Arts (CAOMA) is a not-for-profit organization located on Bournemouth Dr in the Trafalgar Heights neighbourhood of London. It serves community-oriented martial arts instructors and clubs across Canada, with a primary goal of making high-quality training accessible and affordable for local residents. The organization supports its member schools by providing access to insurance coverage and leveraging its non-profit status to help clubs secure low-cost community venues, such as schools and community centers. CAOMA also organizes social events for its members, including an annual summer picnic. The alliance includes various member schools in the London area, such as Ryoku Seikido, World Seikido, Forest City Ki Aikido, and Integrity Taekwondo. Established in October 2022, CAOMA was founded by members who wanted to assist instructors in providing training to their local communities. The organization describes itself as being powered by volunteers who support its vision of empowering communities through the love of martial arts. It invites other community-based martial arts schools and even non-martial arts businesses to join the alliance to assist with its growth.
