First introduced tothe IOC Court of Arbitration for Sport in 1986, the ITKF under the guidance ofits Chairman, Hidetaka Nishiyama, spent nearly 10 years refining them in ordet to reduce the possibility of human error and misunderstanding of purpose in the interpretation and application of te rales 1 was his firm belief that “rules define the sport” and if the rules of the ITKF did not stay true to the fundamental principles of Traditional Karate and its foundation in Budo, that the art of Traditional Karate would become a completely different activity. Moreover, the beauty and spirit of the martial art of Traditional Karate would be lost to future generations for study. At the 1" World Bu-do Conference held in Warsaw Poland in October 2007, when asked about losing the foundation of Bu-do in competition, Sensei Nishiyama provided the following insight: “Competition in all sports, while challenging, is viewed as ‘amusement’ or ‘entertainment’ which itself has become big business. Bu-do is about selfdevelopment. Self development is not a game, nor is it entertainment, Its purpose is to enhance the quality of the human being. Rules cannot define character, but they can help to shape character. Consequently, we can never lose sight of the Bu-do foundation in our competition rules or we run the risk of misshaping the character of students. Sport coaches develop champions for winning, Bu-do coaches develop champions for life.” Competition is itself a compromise of the reality of facing a dangerous opponent in real life, It is doubly important therefore, that ITKF athletes, judges and officials study these rules deeply in order to truly understand their role in reinforcing and preserving the fundamental principles of Traditional Karate in order that further compromise is not made. xiThrough deep study and continuous selfdevelopment of the mind, body and spirit, the individual will break through the ordinary to achieve the extraordinary, ‘The ITKF has left untouched the Foreword written by Sensei Nishiyama for the first publication of the ITKF Competition Rules. His ‘words continue to ring with strong truth and deep meaning today. It is with great pleasure that we present to you the current edition of the Competition Rules for the International Traditional Karate Federation. Sincerely, Rick Jorgenfyn, Chairman ‘May, 2009 Foreworp In most competitive sports, the competition rules themselves define the sports. Martial arts have a long history of @ form of competition known 1s “Shi-ai" (testing each other") used to fest each other’s daly progress for the purpose of guiding future development rather than simply for the purpose of winning. Today, martial arts competition has become extremely popular both domestically and infcmationally as a sports event. ‘Consequently, competition rules themselves figure significantly to determine the principles of the sport. However, if the competition rules do not reflect the essence of a martial art, it becomes a completely and fundamentally different sport. In order to retain the essence of a martial art, competitive rules must incorporate the technical principles and philosophy of the discipline. Competitive rules must also ensure the safety of athletes, reduce human error (on the part of judges), and increase the public’s awareness and appreciation of what Traditional Karate truly represents for both the individual and the community. Establishing competition rules in this spirit presents a difficult challenge which can only be met with the cooperation of Intemational Traditional Karate Federation (ITKF) technical officials, instructors and athletes from all countries. Through continuing refinement, we have established amended rules which incorporate the essence of Traditional Karate as a martial art. As a result, these rules may also provide guidance to future generations of Traditional Karate athletes. 1 fully expect all karate athletes to uphold and preserve the highest ideals of Traditional Karate through the application of these rules in ‘competition, — ‘Nishiyama (Cfiairnman, ITKF July 1995 xiii‘TRADITIONAL KARATE COMPETITION RULES 1, GENERAL Article 1 Purpose of Rules, 1.
