As everybody know, many federations existing in our sport.

What makes the different, why do we have that success since 1964, more than 58 Years World wide?

Our high class events World wide speak for themselves. The answer is simple, our global team and our head office work really hard and serious. 

„Pacta sunt servanda“ , for our clients, promoters, Champions and members – to satisfy

YOU !!!

We all love our sport, and of course we want to make business, but a deal must be a deal, any World ranking must getting updated weekly, Champions must be real and not a “fairy tail” story and an event schedule must be serious, without fakes of copies of other events, or not even existing events.

More than 1.600 (!) posters from our WKF World wide events in the gallery are the proof of our hard work.

Here are our 5 divisions, with valid World ranking lists, rules, title fight minimum requirements and much more

And because we are serious, have no fakes in the event schedule, have weekly updated World ranking, real Champions and promoters World wide on 6 continents in more than 140 member countries – because of that all

ANUNCIA EL PRÓXIMO EVENTO

 

 

Dear WKF family,

we hope you, your family and friends are still healthy.

WKF start in the background to schedule great events in autumn in 2022, when we all have “survived” after the Virus situation.

The City of Wels in Austria is our host for the upcoming WKF European Championships in all disciplines.

WKF AUSTRIA president Mrs. Tanja HELML is the head of the organizing team October 24th to 29th.

All our WKF EUROPEAN countries are most welcome.

Dear friends in martial arts!

Respected WKF country presidents!

As everybody know, the European Championship in Wels, Austria is coming closer. Confirmed date is October, 24th to 29th!

Today we have 14 categories for forms/Kata/poomse/Hyong/creative   etc.

To avoid any misunderstandings on the tatami or mat, I would like to ask you kindly one more time to read carefully the online WKF rule book for forms.

To see what is a traditional form, have a look here in two lists of forms.

What are the dress codes?

When does the timer start e.g. for traditional forms with and without weapons ?

Any traditional form / Kata etc. can be customized, but it still has to be recognizable. From our official WKF recognized List and a traditional Japanese or Korean form or Kata!

In creative and freestyle:  also compiled (with parts of existing forms) form using traditional techniques is permitted.

What is the time limit in creative forms or soft style forms?

All traditional Forms must be using traditional moves only. A traditional Form / Kata / Pommse / Hyong etc. must resemble a traditional work, an adaptation will be acceptable if added moves are of a traditional nature.

Any so called “allstyle” form is not a traditional one!

For any creative forms is just the division creative forms with music, with and without weapon.

Once again I kindly ask you read the online forms rule book , available in 4 languages!

There you will find exactly what is a traditional form, where is which time limit, what is a creative form and so on.

I thank you for the cooperation so far and wish all of us many traditional participants and a successful European Championship in Wels, Austria.
