NEW: Impact Competition
This year IUKF is sponsoring a very special booth - We are conducting a contest to see who has the most powerful punch and front kick. Entrance fee is $5 (going to charity) and each contestant will be able to throw two of their best punches and two of their best kicks that will be measured by a new computerized sensor-driven program that measures the impact delivered to a target. We will have special prizes for children, men and women of all ages.
