Western Martial Arts Coalition

The Western Martial Arts Coalition (WMAC) is an organization dedicated to the study, practice, and promotion of historical European martial arts (HEMA). It serves as a hub for practitioners, instructors, and enthusiasts who engage with traditional fighting techniques from Europe, focusing on disciplines like swordsmanship, grappling, and self-defense. The WMAC aims to foster a sense of community, provide resources for education, and maintain standards for training and safety. By organizing events, workshops, and competitions, the coalition preserves these martial traditions and encourages their practice in a modern context.
