Become a trainer

Do you want to teach Wing Tzun and Escrima and open your own official EBMAS school? Becoming an EBMAS instructor is a rewarding path that combines years of personal training with the responsibility of passing the system on. Here is how it works.

1. Train as a student first

Every EBMAS instructor begins on the mat. You first join a school as a student and work through the student grades, building a solid foundation in the EBMAS system.

2. Progress to instructor level

As you advance into the technician grades, you deepen both your skill and your understanding of how to teach. Your instructor and the EBMAS organisation guide you toward the level required to lead your own classes.

3. Earn your EBMAS certification

Direct EBMAS schools are led by instructors certified by the organisation under Grandmaster Emin Boztepe. Certification confirms that you teach the authentic system to the EBMAS standard — the same quality students expect anywhere in the network.

4. Open a direct EBMAS school

Once certified, you can open an official EBMAS school. You receive ongoing support: the full curriculum, grading authority for your students, access to seminars with the Grandmaster, and a listing in our public school finder.

Already have a school?

If you already run your own martial arts school and would rather keep it independent, joining as a partner school may be the better route. See Become a partner.
