“Seeking out our similarities on a quest to find all that connects our art”

For over 20 years, the Whipping Willow Association has spread and celebrated a diverse background of martial arts. With a clear vision that aims to seek out all that connects our art across cultures and experiences and to foster a student mindset that encourages continual growth, the Association is a hub for all martial arts, both combative and restorative.
