The only way the AUSKF board would change their move toward regionless federations in the US is if the membership started writing email/letters to the board expressing their concerns.

The membership is responsible for the shaping of the federation, and setting policy. I encourage the "average US kenshi" to speak up and let the board know how you feel about this issue.

We in fact have regionless federations now. That is why you have a Florida dojo that does or did belong to an Eastern region federation instead of the SE. You also have an Arizona club that belongs to SoCal as far as I know.

Any club can join any regional federation.

The concern with the kumdo is they would still be a nationwide federation onto themselves with AUSKF membership. No thank you. Join the regionals or not at all.

Hang on a sec...there are dojangs in the US who are affiliated with the KKA but not AUSKF? How does that work? Isn't KKA based in Korea?

the KKA is based in Korea, but they have several dojangs here in and there. I believe there's like one or two that are affiliated with both the KKA and the AUSKF (under SCKF or SCKO, cant remember)
