Welcome to the Women
in Martial Arts

Women as trainers or teachers as well as official representatives and decision makers in the world of martial arts are still under represented and under estimated. Our dream is to create a style and an international network of female martial arts teachers, through which we can contribute to the acknowledgment of women in the Budo-Arts.

We, Muriel Mondy and Petra Schmidt, started with this idea. For many years we have been practicing and teaching "our" martial arts. In our training we try to show that it is not only about a martial art and its certain defensive and offensive techniques. "Balance of body and soul", "health and flexibility of body and spirit" and "perception and conscious application of life energy" are the key phrases, which mark our training.

We would welcome other female teachers/trainers to join us. Every one of you who would like to appear on our website and have her courses listed, is welcome to contact us! We would also appreciate your comments, tips and further links.
