Wishing all members of the I.W.F., E.W.F., and B.W.F. — including our instructors, students, parents, supporters, and wider martial-arts families — a fantastic Christmas and a very Happy New Year 2026.
Thank you for your commitment, passion, and loyalty throughout the past year. Your hard work on and off the mats continues to strengthen our organisations, support the growth of Wado-Ryu internationally, and inspire the next generation of practitioners.
I hope you all enjoy a well-earned festive break. May the holiday season bring you peace, good health, and quality time with family and friends — and may 2026 be filled with progress, opportunity, and continued success for every dojo and every student.
Best Regards,
Paul Elliott
I.W.F. Senior Director & B.W.F. Chairman
