Since May 2022, while the COVID-19 pandemic has not yet subsided, KIF has been holding international seminars in various locations. In particular in Europe, we have held seminars with a variety of content, such as the following:

・Seminars aimed at newly opened branches

・General seminars focusing on KIHON, IDO and various Kudo techniques

・Seminars focusing on the content of promotion examinations

・Jukucho Seminars

・Seminars for juniors

・Seminars focusing on throws

・Seminars focusing on IDO (various IDO patterns)

・Seminars focusing on Kudo JOHO

・Seminars focusing on self-defense techniques

・Seminars focusing on pre-tournament training for athletes (this will be the Barcelona camp scheduled for September)

In the future, we will hold seminars based on requests from host countries or cooperate in holding them.

As for referee training, as we have uploaded in another NEWS, KIF has created various materials and used them in the training. These can be used for self-study in member countries.

As with the seminars, in the future, we will hold referee training based on the requests of host countries in principle. In addition to training based on the documents, there may also be practical training in refereeing actions and vocalizations, as well as a question and answer session regarding the rules.
