What My Training Atlas is
My Training Atlas is an introduction service that connects travelling martial artists with schools around the world.
It provides a lineage‑aware directory so visiting practitioners can understand where to train, how to approach, and what each school expects — before they make contact.
The platform exists to reduce uncertainty for travellers and reduce interruptions for instructors.
What travellers see
Travellers search by city and filter by lineage. They see your visitor policy, etiquette requirements, and schedule before they contact you.
A typical search:
A practitioner searches Tokyo
Selects Yoshinkan as their Lineage Island
Sees schools in that branch with visitor policies shown
They arrive knowing what you expect. You receive fewer interruptions and better-prepared visitors.
How schools appear in the directory
The directory is built from two sources. Some schools are added from publicly available information — federation directories, dojo websites, and community records — so that travelling practitioners can find and approach them through proper channels. Others are submitted directly by the school owner or instructor.
In both cases, listings exist so visitors understand lineage, expectations, and etiquette before making contact.
If your school is already listed, you can update your information or request removal at any time. If it is not yet listed, you can request to have it added.
My Training Atlas is a community resource. Schools are added and maintained with the community's cooperation.
