The International Kojosho Karate Federation (IKKF) is an umbrella organization for independent karate schools and individual membership. Our mission objectives are to preserve the work of past masters with an eye toward identifying significant new contributions, to provide our members with certification recognized and accepted world-wide, and to promote activities such as camps, seminars, tournaments and international conferences that bring together members in the true spirit of martial arts. The IKKF has been under the direction of Mr. Fred Absher, Hanshi since 1966.

The IKKF does not promote individuals in styles other than Kojosho Kempo Karate. Instead, we provide rank recognition for the many groups who are affiliated. Individual membership in the IKKF can be obtained by sending a copy of existing rank certificate and a cashiers check of $55.00 U.S. to:
