P.O.G.K.F. Information and Membership

 

Why P.O.G.K.F.?

 

Independent Dojo Owners and Instructors have formed P.O.G.K.F. Canada.  Each of the instructors had previously belonged to other organizations and had become disenchanted with the political aspects within the Martial Arts.  Looking for proper instruction without politics was hard until meeting P.O.G.K.F. Representatives Rusty McMains Sensei and Ramon Veras Sensei!  All that is asked of a P.O.G.K.F. member is to meet proper standards for promotion and take proper instruction, train hard in order to achieve rank.  For more information on becoming a member of P.O.G.K.F. contact a Representative in your area or the Hombo Dojo:
