Welcome to the British Wado Federation

Are you tired of the constant politics of multi-style or sport-karate governing bodies? Do you feel your fees vanish into a black hole or into the pockets of committee members?

Here at the British Wado Federation, we prioritise Wado Karate and its practitioners above all.
You can maintain your independence, manage your own affairs, and enjoy an insurance package and Enhance DBS checks that fully covers your instructors and more!

Why choose the British Wado Federation?

  • Purely Wado Karate Focus: We are loyal to the Wado style, not to multi-style politics.

No Fees to Join—Only Pay for What You Use!

We do not charge for affiliation membership. Whether you’re a 1st Dan or higher, and 18 years or older, teaching Wado Karate at your own club, the British Wado Federation could be the next step on your Wado journey.

Join us in supporting and preserving Wado Karate. Say no to the politics and confusion of multi-style governing bodies and embrace a purer path.

We are proud to be British, proud to be Wado, and proud to be the British Wado Federation!
