UFAF is a worldwide martial arts membership organization founded by Chuck Norris. UFAF is the governing body of the Chuck Norris System (CNS), UFAF Krav Maga (UFAF KM), and UFAF Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (UFAF BJJ), overseeing the growth, development, and certification in these dynamic styles.  

 

Our program focuses on the Chuck Norris System, which is a Korean-based American style of karate.  While incorporating some of the fundamentals of both Krav Maga, and Jiu-Jitsu, the focus is mainly on the art, efficiency, and effectiveness of striking and kicking, while adding in sport and self-defense. 

 

Students will be required to purchase a uniform (gi) and appropriate belt for class participation.  

Participants will be barefoot during class.

 

Uniforms (gi), patches, and equipment can be ordered at the studio or we can provide you with the information to purchase the required attire. 

Individual students will be required to obtain and maintain membership in UFAF to test for Advanced Belts. 

 

CNS is only taught through UFAF Chartered Schools or UFAF Certified Instructors.
