Background
Kaicho AJ Weimer is the founder of the Martial Arts Unlimited Association (MAUA) and the creator of Total Fighting Concepts (TFC JuJitsu), a self-defense system established in 2004 and recognized by the late O-Sensei Porter of the United States Martial Arts Association. With over eight black belt rankings, his expertise spans Jiu-Jitsu Submission Fighting, Submission Wrestling, Aikido, Filipino Martial Arts, combative weapons and the Japanese sword.
His martial arts journey began at age six, when he and his father joined a Tae Kwon Do studio together. Serving in the United States Air Force in the 1990s at Yokota Air Base in Tokyo, Japan, the birthplace of many martial arts, he trained intensively, earning multiple black belts.
Beyond the dojo
AJ's career in international security included personal and executive protection for celebrities and VVIPs, and work with a civilian security firm on kidnap, ransom and extortion operations across Asia, Europe and South America.
As the MAUA's Executive Director he oversees its operations: security consulting, close-quarter combat training and corporate self-defense programs.
