MISSION

USA Muaythai is a 501c3 Non Profit and the sole US National Federation for IFMA. Our mission is to further advance the sport of Muaythai in the United States through education while providing opportunities to develop high caliber athletes that can successfully compete at the elite level.
November 2016 the I.O.C. granted Provisional Recognition to the sport of Muaythai due to the efforts of I.F.M.A. (International Federation of Muaythai Amateur). IFMA is the governing body of Muaythai internationally that oversees the development of Muaythai in over 100 countries.
Each country has an appointed national federation that follows the guidelines (rules, regulations and ethics) of IFMA and therefore the I.O.C. USA Muaythai is the SOLE national federation in the United States.
