Professional Association of Martial Arts Instructors (PAMAI)

Founded in 1980, The first PAMAI conference offered instruction in basic first aid, CPR, fundamentals of exercise science, anatomy & physiology, public speaking and close quarters combat.

Now, nearly forty years since it's inception, the annual PAMAI conference has become the "think tank" for American Budokai International member instructors, and the "continued education" for certified instructors. Several of the PAMAI instructors host seminar in their respective regions, as well as travel extensively teaching throughout the United States, Europe and the Caribbean.

PAMAI is focused on the professionalization of Martial Arts leaders throughout the ABI network.
