Australasian Federation of Traditional Karate and Kobudo

Bujutsu is a very proud member of the Australasian Federation of Traditional Karate and Kobudo (AFTK).

Sensei Mark Szalajko is also a certified traditional karate and kobudo instructor with the AFTK.

The Australasian Federation of Traditional Karate and Kobudo (AFTK) [オーストララシア伝統空手古武道連盟 Australasian Dento Karate Kobudo Renmei] was originally established in 1999 and is an industry body and instructor’s association that caters to the needs of traditional karate and kobudo practitioners across Australia and New Zealand. Originally established as the Traditional Karate Federation Inc, in Queensland Australia, by a small group of karate enthusiasts. It now consists of more than 60 member dojo around the region and represents both traditional karate and kobudo. In 2003 the name was changed to the Australian Federation of Traditional Karate to better represent its purpose, and then in 2020 the Federation again evolved to its current name and form—the Australasian Federation of Traditional Karate and Kobudo.
