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 countries affiliated has increased over the years and in May 2015 the total had grown to 57.[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]
