"Best of the Best" Martial Arts Non-Tournament Events 2003-2004
by Anonymous
Our choices are not based on attendance, they are based on the quality and the degree of the actual contribution that it makes to the martial arts community as a whole. We at Karate Kidz Online refer to this as our A list of martial arts events, the events on this list were compiled to give the martial arts community a gauge on the quality, contribution level, purpose and organizational level of such events through out the year, we are only listing the events that we feel are worthy. If any event was overlooked it was either we weren't aware of its existence or that we were aware.
Here are the Best of Best martial arts events to attend in 2004 and are in no particular order:
