WELCOME TO THE PROFILES OF MARTIAL ARTISTS WITH DISABILITIES BLOG

I hope that this blog with inspire other people with disabilities to enter into the martial arts. In addition, I encourage instructors and school owners to use this blog as resource for their existing students with disabilities, or to bring in new students.

This blog is by no means complete. I would appreciate hearing about new nominations, organizations, articles, links, etc to be added. Please send me an email to info@not-me.org regarding what you would like see added to this blog.

All the martial artist are listed alphabetically.

PROFILES OF MARTIAL ARTISTS WITH DISABILITIES IS BECOMING A BOOK

NOT-ME! has just received approval for a grant from the Craig Neilson Foundation to write and publish a display book. The book will feature selected martial artists with spinal cord injury or disease. The book will also have a section specifically for wheelchair users on self-defense.

The book will be distributed to rehabilitation hospitals across the United States and Canada. In addition, an e-book version will be distributed for free to individuals with SCI/D.

NOT-ME! is currently seeking potential martial artists with SCI/D to profile. If you know of a martial artist, or are one yourself, that qualifies, please contact NOT-ME! via info@not-me.org.
