Each member country of the WKA has a president who is responsible for that country’s implementation of the rules and regulations and for overseeing the growth and practice of the martial disciplines as a whole.

John Richards appointed the President of WKA Traditional Karate in Great Britain. my aim is to promoting, organise, regulate and popularise the sport of WKA Karate in Great Britain’.

The WKA has in place a rules committee, a health and safety committee, a refereeing structure, and an annual congress. The Congress discusses the many aspects of change within the sport, and it designates via the democratic principle of votes new rules and regulations, updates, and innovations within the sport as they come to light. No one person dictates what is to be done. Each member country votes upon all decisions.
