In conjunction with the Bangkok Kung Fu Association, Wells International School will be hosting its first-ever martial arts tournament in the fall of 2013 at its On Nut campus. Open to competitors of all levels, events will include open hand kata, weapons kata and kumite (sparring). It will also highlight the skills of some of Thailand’s premier masters, and awards will be granted for superior competitor performances. The school (dojo or kwoon) that sends the highest number of participants (above five) will also receive a special trophy.
For participants who register early, the entrance fee is 800 baht. Late registrants must pay 1,000 baht. Spectators of all ages will receive free entry.
Wells International School strongly supports physical fitness in its curriculum, and kung fu and taekwondo are offered as extra-curriculars for students of all ages.
