Kampf Kunst Klub Fulda

What Kampf Kunst Klub Fulda does

Kampf-Kunst-Klub-Fulda e.V. is a German registered non-profit association (eingetragener Verein, VR 2647 at Amtsgericht Fulda) operating a multi-discipline combat sports club headquartered in Fulda, Hessen, with its first documented membership assembly on March 30, 2018. The club delivers training across kickboxing and amateur boxing, Muay Thai, Ving Tsun Kung-Fu (taught by VTAA Hong Kong-certified instructor Göksel Erdogan), Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Krav Maga, and mixed martial arts, and is differentiated as the first club in Germany to offer the Knightfighter combat suit system for maximum-force, contact-free training. Memberships are tiered at €40/month for children aged 5+, €69/month for teenagers and adults, and €98/month for families, with calendar-based auto-renewal and two free trial sessions, supplemented by paid workshops (e.g., a women's Krav Maga workshop at €69) and a branded online fan shop at kampfkunst-fulda-shop.de. The club also offers a state-authorized digital education program covering photography, image/video editing, and website creation, positioning it as a hybrid sports and digital-literacy association.

The organization is affiliated with the Hessischer Kampfsportbund (HKBV), MTLV-Hessen, Hessischer Boxverband e.V., and Muay Thai Landesverband Hessen e.V., and conducts WAKO-Deutschland belt examinations with national and international validity. Operations are anchored to a single owned dojo with fixed mats at Maberzeller Straße 89, Fulda, and the customer base is overwhelmingly local recreational (approximately 90% Breitensport) versus competitive (approximately 10% Leistungssport). Distribution runs through the company website (Jimdo-hosted), iOS and Android mobile apps, Instagram and Facebook, trial-booking via WhatsApp, and community events such as the RhönEnergie Challenge and Oktoberfest; minor sponsorship support comes from RhönEnergie Fulda, LR-Projektbau, and donations of training equipment by local boxing veteran Waldemar Untheim.
