The Kinesiology Federation (KF) is a non-profit making professional association providing support to members and working to enhance the profile of kinesiology throughout the UK.
The Kinesiology Federation was formed in 1991 by a committed group of kinesiologists who saw the need for a kinesiology association dedicated to the development of the profession, the promotion of the therapy and providing support for the members. The KF is run by kinesiologists for kinesiologists and acts as a professional organisation to represent kinesiologists from throughout the UK. It was developed with the express intent to be inclusive and encompass all branches of kinesiology.
The vision
The Kinesiology Federation’s vision is to have kinesiology viewed as a professional mainstream therapy that has the highest standards in training and practice, for the benefit of both the general public and its members. Ultimately, the KF would like to have all kinesiologists represented by one body and so the KF aims to maintain positive relationships with other professional bodies and the medical profession.
Since 2003 the KF has operated as a limited company with a Policy Board functioning as the Board of Directors. The Directors are elected to the Policy Board at the AGM by the voting members. The Board is made up of representatives from a number of kinesiology modalities and meets on a regular basis. Where necessary other KF members sit on sub-committees to deal with current issues.
An Administrator is responsible for the day to day running of the KF in discussion/agreement with the Policy Board. All policy matters and decisions are referred to the relevant Policy Board members.
