As a beginner, you will start out as a White Belt in our Novice classes and work your way to becoming a Black Belt, and ultimately reaching the higher Dan Ranking. Proactive also offers RPLs (Recognised Prior Learning) for those coming from different styles to seamlessly transition into AFMA.

See below for the class that best suits you.

AFMA was officially ‘born’ in 1999 as Principal Rick O’Brien and his team established a new syllabus following a set of guidelines focused in a positive direction with an emphasis on personal growth and development.
