Since 2000, our premier annual event has been our Teaching the Teacher conference, focusing on professional development for school ownders, instructors, assistant instructors and community leaders. Our conference attracts participants from across the United States and internationally. Sponsors of our conference have a chance to place their business, product or organization before these exceptional women and beyond, through tabling and signage at the venue, in the conference marketing and information materials, and year-round via our social media, quarterly newsletter and active website.
Every one of our attendees is a woman of wide reach and influence, as reflects our membership at large. Attendees enjoy lectures, discussion and practical experiences in such areas as curriculum development; business, sales, and marketing; pedagogy; and more - not to mention a wide variety of physical arts. In addition, the conference is a showcase for members in our rank promotion and rank recognition programs; and for honorees in our Hall of Fame, which recognizes women martial artists of longevity, exceptional leadership and accomplishment.
