Official Origin Statement – WSKF

The World Sport Karate Federation (WSKF) was created to unify martial artists worldwide under a modern, inclusive, and professional structure. Born from the vision of the Born to Win Athlete Development Pathway, WSKF exists to bring together diverse striking arts β€” Karate, Taekwondo, Wushu, Kenpo, and more β€” into one federation that values safety, technical excellence, and long-term athlete development. Unlike fragmented or outdated circuits, WSKF provides a clear pathway for athletes of all ages and levels, offering opportunities in sparring, forms, and weapons divisions. With accessibility, integrity, and innovation at its core, WSKF empowers schools, athletes, and promoters to grow together on a global stage, shaping the future of martial arts competition.
