It is an internationally practiced activity. The Korean forms have been adapted to sport to the point that they have participated in the Olympics for the last couple of rounds. And there are some kata competitions that are internationally attended.

Consequently, there is no single kickboxing world championship, and champion titles are issued by individual promotions, such as K-1, It's Showtime, Lumpinee Boxing Stadium, among others.however; The International Sport Karate Association(ISKA) is one of the major international bodies regulating karate and kickboxing matches, and is based in the United States. It was established in 1985 as a response to legal and revenue issues that sent the Professional Karate Association (PKA) into decline.[Source; Wikipedia
