At AMAC, we believe that martial arts are more than just techniques—they are a path to continuous growth, discipline, and positive change. Our academy blends multiple high-level combative arts to create a dynamic and enriching training experience for every student.
Our Mission
Our goal is to provide a professional, inclusive, and welcoming environment where anyone—regardless of age or physical ability—can train in martial arts. Unlike many traditional programs, AMAC fosters a culture of respect, teamwork, and personal development without the arrogance often associated with martial arts schools.
When you join AMAC, you become part of a family. We train together to prepare for challenges both inside and outside the academy, supporting one another every step of the way. Our structured and progressive training programs ensure that every student experiences real growth, both in skill and character.
Our commitment to excellence means that we constantly evolve, seeking out the best techniques and knowledge from around the world. Martial arts and self-defense are ever-changing, and so is our curriculum.
Our Lineage
AMAC stands apart in Georgia with a lineage rooted in some of the world’s most respected martial arts organizations. We are proud members of:
- Inosanto Instructor Martial Arts Association
- Combat Submission Wrestling
- Francis Fong Instructor Association
- World Thai Boxing Association

Our founder, Alan Baker, brings over 42 years of experience and holds black belts or advanced rankings in more than 20 combative arts. His expertise ensures that AMAC students learn the universal principles of combat rather than being confined to a single system.
Beyond our local programs, AMAC instructors are highly sought after nationwide. Our team regularly trains law enforcement, government agencies, security professionals, and tactical teams, as well as Personal Protection Specialists (PPS). This elite-level experience is infused into our curriculum, providing students with the most effective, real-world self-defense training available.
