International Kendo Federation

Sport federation

The International Kendo Federation (FIK) was founded in 1970. It is an international federation of national and regional kendo associations.

Quick Facts Formation, Type ...
The forms of the Nihon Kendō Kata (日本剣道形) were finalized 1933 based on the Dai nihon Teikoku Kendo Kata, composed in 1912.[1]

The FIK is a non-governmental organisation and its aim is to promote and popularise kendo, iaido and jōdō.[2] Seventeen national or regional federations were the founding affiliates. The number of affiliated countries has increased over the years and as of October 2021, 62 countries/regions are FIK affiliates.[3]

The FIK was accepted as a member of the Global Association of International Sports Federations (GAISF) in April 2006 and thus recognised as the peak world federation for kendo. As a consequence, the previous acronym of IKF was altered to FIK.[4][5]

The head office of FIK is located in the All Japan Kendo Federation building in Minato-ku, Tokyo.[2]
