WKSI – Wadokai Karatedo Shi-Gi-Tai Italia, branch of the Zen Nihon Karatedo Renmei Wadokai, namely Japan Karatedo federation Wado-kai, has a natural supranational vocation and aims at disseminating in Italy the values of Budō and the traditional style of karate Wado-ryu with an international perspective, as laid down in the Budō Charter. Maintaining this perspective encourages not only faster and more solid technical progression but it also gives concrete expression to the universalist approach of Wado, the Way to Peace.

Every year, WKSI organizes at least two or three international seminars in Italy, led by teachers of proven value from other international JKF Wado-kai branches. Moreover, WKSI encourages its teachers and members to take part in the most prestigious international seminars in Europe and Japan.
