The Capital Region Martial Arts Alliance, (CARMAA)

Founder - Grand Master Frank Noguera
CARMAA is a unique organization of martial artists working in harmony to accomplish common goals. Together they help educate the public as to the many physical, mental and emotional benefits that martial arts training can provide. The instructors, from varied arts, break the mould by willingly sharing their expertise and information, thus raising the level of all in the arts.
As a group and individually, these masters put on public demonstrations,conduct fundraisers for those in need, provide seminars for each other as guest instructors offering both internal and external learning opportunities.
Our goals include instilling confidence and increasing focus in students to better prepare them for school and life. We help unite communities and families and increase their ability to feel more secure in troubled times. Another goal is to promote healthy lifestyles and positive life choices, particularly among our youth.
It isn't often in a lifetime that so many high-ranking instructors in any field lend themselves to such an endeavor, but these selfless teachers gladly share their knowledge with all who wish to learn.
