Origins of Daughters of the Arts

Although the title, “Daughters of the Arts” can be extended to incorporate any practicing female martial artist, the organization’s title is actually a direct reference to the origins of it’s co-founders Jena Inay and Ginger Dunn. Both women were born into families where their father’s were organizers and founders of their own arts, Inayan System of Eskrima and Mizu-ryu Ju-jitsu, respectively.

Daughters of the Arts is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the promotion of women in the martial arts. Our forum meetings are designed to inspire and motivate our members to be the strongest they can be both in their personal lives and in their martial arts training. Not only will we have motivational guest speakers, but we will also address personal concerns unique to female martial artists. As a nonprofit organization we are dedicated to giving back to the martial arts community through fundraisers and martial arts scholarships. Our biggest event of the year will be a seminar that features female martial arts instructors.
