We are happy about your visit at ours and invite you to get to know our international umbrella association for martial arts & martial art sewers . If you also request further information or have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us.
The A.D.D.I. MARTIAL ARTS ORGANIZATION is a Budo-umbrella organization under private law for all modern and traditional martial arts, martial sports and styles. The international Martial Arts Organization that works on the basis of the "non profit principle". It is nothing less in the extent of achievements for members compared to other associations. The A.D.D.I was founded in the year 2000 by long-term experienced and socially engaged martial artists and martial sportspersons. With headquarters in the USA and an independent representation in Europe it is also well established in the international area.
The organization brand of the A.D.D.I. was officially registered and recognised in Germany according to the legal regulations in the trademark and patent law under the register no. 302 59 850 and 30 2012 002 624. Since the beginnings the management of the A.D.D.I is incumbent upon the founders who are represented by president Michael Kuerbis for the operational area of EMEA (Europe, the Middle East and Africa), and for the operational area of APAC (Asia and the Pacific) by president Grandmaster Phillip Porter (10. DAN) from the United States (also the president of the United States Martial Arts Association) till his end of live in 2010. Since 2011 the Korean Grandmaster Jaee-Hee-Chang 8. DAN Taekwondo (World-Taekwondo-Federation) is overtaking the duty as international hornour association president of the A.D.D.I. Martial Arts Organization. Both martial arts associations have been connected for many years through a harmonious and collaborative cooperation at international level. The association currently supervises Budo-sports schools, clubs, associations, training groups and single members worldwide and also works together with particularly selected organisations. Thereby the A.D.D.I. nevertheless does not aim at profits, as it carries the official status of a so-called „non-profit organization ". As a non-profit organization it is then only termed when its purpose is also in fact not aimed at the generation of profits. This means that the foremost aim is to engage in charitable purposes of the martial arts without having thereby the generation of profit as a priority.

Next to modern business concepts in the area of martial arts and the martial sports the proven principles and values of the Budo still stand in the foreground. "The trend develops on and on into the direction of universal, flexible services, but exactly in such a deep and multi-layered area like the martial arts and the martial sports mass should never go at the expenses of quality". In the course of the years the A.D.D.I. has therefore specialized on the supervision of schools, associations and clubs, but also of single members from the standard styles, for example among others: Karate, Taekwondo, Aikido, Judo Jiu-Jutsu and many others, to be able to supervise each of these disciplines optimally and reliably. A well-balanced relation of style loyalty and development is in this time as important as it was in the times of the great Budo traditions. It is therefore an important concern of the A.D.D.I. to also include the modern styles and systems into the future support. Also beginning founders and leaders from schools, clubs or associations profit not only from the varied professional and practical knowledge of the A.D.D.I. style advisers and officials, but also from the extensive choice in services for their school / association and students. Exactly in the martial arts and in the martial arts where you always will have to be able count on as well as trust your partner, virtues like "reliability, openness, helpfulness and fairness in the sport still mean a lot. With us this is equally valid for all members in this organisation, no matter whether director, official, master or student.
Therefore since the beginnning the number of member's entries has nearly doubled every year through associations and schools from the traditional styles such as Karate, Taekwondo, Ju-Jutsu, Judo etc. and from other famous and well-known professional associations. Our leaving rate of members lies with 0.1% which speaks for itself in regard to "member's satisfaction". This positive trend is explained also by our absolutely fair, flawless and serious approach, as well as by the unusual support of every member. The success of our internationally respected martial arts association is based on a strong and reliable community of like-minded martial artists and martial sportspersons of human extra class. That is why it is also no wonder that our association and its members have been and remain so "unique".
Finally we would like to thank you, also in the name of our members, for your attention and the shown interest in our Budo umbrella organisation.We would be very happy if we can also welcome "you" soon as a new member in our large community.
