School Owners Retreat 2024

 

Attention ALL UFAF school owners AND future UFAF school owners, UFAF would like to formally invite you to our 2024 UFAF School Owner Retreat! The UFAF School Owner retreat will be held at Legacy Martial Arts in Henderson, NV (address below) on Friday October 4th and Saturday October 5th, 2024. The retreat will start on Friday at Legacy Martial Arts at 5:30pm. We will kick things off with a training seminar at 5:30pm, so come dressed to work out. There is no need to be in official UFAF uniform for the seminar, but if you are participating, you will want to be in clothing you can train in. If you are not able to physically participate in the seminar, you are welcome to be there as a spectator. We would love for everyone to join us for a dinner, hosted by Legacy, immediately following the seminar. On Saturday things will continue starting at 9am at Legacy Martial Arts and finish around 5pm at Legacy. The presentations on Saturday will be mostly focused on the business side of running a school, but we recommend you bring (or wear) clothes to physically train in as well....just in case a work out breaks out! Haha! ;) We will be taking a lunch break during the day on Saturday and we have included several nearby food options listed below including several options that are in the same plaza as Legacy. The final event of our UFAF School Owner Retreat will be a dinner on Saturday evening, provided by UFAF and hosted at Grandmaster Gallacher's home at 6pm. (The address will be provided to the attendees at the event.) Grandmaster Gallacher will be heating his pool and jacuzzi for all to enjoy, so remember to bring a swimsuit and towel! The jacuzzi will be nice in case a work out does in fact break out! We also have included below a list of hotel options that are nearby Legacy Martial Arts so you can get your travel and hotel booked as soon as possible. If you will be attending the school owner retreat, we ask that you please RSVP to Tara Cox by email (below) no later than Friday August 30th, with how many people (you, your staff, etc) will be attending the school owner retreat so we can get a head count for food in plenty of time. We also ask that you please email Tara Cox with any questions you have for UFAF or MAIA or both, or any topics that you would like covered at the retreat to help your school be successful! Note- If you are a future/potential UFAF school owner and would like to attend the retreat, please contact Tara Cox via email. We are hoping to see all of you in October!

ITC Instructor Change Richard Norton will not be able to teach at the ITC this year due to a recent shoulder surgery. He will still be in attendance and will be available for photos with attendees. We want to give a huge thank you to Mr. Stephen Hammersley for stepping up to teach in Mr. Norton's place. “UFAF Krav Maga Weapons Counter-Offense: Surviving Armed Attacks in Real-Life Scenarios” In a world where threats can come from any direction at any time, mastering counter-offense skills that are effective, & work under pressure is essential. This seminar dives into UFAF Krav Maga methods & principles, specifically addressing weapons defense. From a knife-wielding attacker to surviving a gun threat, this seminar will equip you with NO B.S. effective, practical skills and the warrior mindset to get you home safe. Join us to learn how to protect yourself and others when faced with armed aggression. Nothing is Real, But Real & Nothing works 100% of the time ... if anyone tells you that in a real street confrontation or attack something will work 100% of the time, RUN! However, at the end of this seminar, you’ll have the practical mental & physical tools that will greatly increase your chances to survive armed encounters. Remember, UFAF Krav Maga isn’t just about physical techniques; it’s about mindset, adaptability, and protecting yourself and loved ones. Stay vigilant, stay prepared!
