The International Martial Arts Hall of Fame (IMAHOF) stands as the world's premier sanctuary uniting grandmasters, world champions, instructors, and pioneers across every discipline. From classical arts like Shotokan Karate, Shaolin Kempo, Tang Soo Do, Wing Chun, Tae Kwon Do, and Hapkido, to real-world combat disciplines such as Krav Maga, Hand-to-Hand Combat, Boxing, Kickboxing, Wushu Sanda, Filipino Martial Arts (FMA), and Capajistsudo, the Hall of Fame recognizes those who have committed their lives to martial excellence, ethical leadership, and empowering communities worldwide.

The 2026 Class of Honorees commemorates 40 supreme martial artists from 14 nations across the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Oceania. Each inductee has distinguished themselves through innovative system founding, undefeated world titles, decades of selfless teaching, or lifetime service to the martial way.
