History & Mission
Founded in 1970
Kenshido was created from a deep analysis of traditional and modern martial arts systems. The founder identified that every martial art has strengths and weaknesses, and that true effectiveness lies in intelligent integration, not limitation.
The mission of IKF is to:
- Develop a safe and effective martial system
- Protect youth and children through adapted pedagogy
- Establish international standards for training and competition
- Promote ethical, educational MMA
IKF believes that martial arts must serve human development, not violence.
