next WKF event in Vlore, Albania

Form divisions in our European Championships

ONLINE REGISTRATION OPEN MAY 18th

As everybody know, the  European Championship is coming up in June, 22nd to 29th, 2025

Request  today for your country USERNAME and PASSWORD !

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

 

Today we have 6 categories for forms

Please register your national team for all FORMS and Kata , referees as well !

WKF Japanese Hardstyle forms

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

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

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

 

WKF Korean Hardstyle forms

Any traditional form may be adapted, it is still a traditional form. Also compiled (with parts of existing forms) form using traditional techniques is permitted.

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

Once again I kindly ask you read the rule book for forms – available in 4 languages! There you will find exactly what is a traditional form, where is a time limit, what is a creative form and so on.

WKF want to thank you for co-operation and wish you a successful European Championship 2025 in Moldova in June

Soon a representative of the FKR will also be appointed to the position of the representative of the Russian Federation in the IRC – International Rules Committee.

The previous representative of the WKF in the territory of the Russian Federation Gerasimov M.V. is removed from the previously held position and is relieved of all rights and obligations.

WKF CEO and World President Fritz EXENBERGER emphasized that without the Russian team no international federation can consider itself leading, because athletes from Russia are few of the strongest in the world.

WKF and FKR are ready to implement the most ambitious joint projects. Soon we will please kickboxing fans all over the world.
