The Kinesiology Association of Ireland (KAI) is a national Kinesiology body in Ireland representing the professional interests of qualified Kinesiology practitioners, Kinesiology students and the personal interests of the public. The policy of the KAI is to support and encourage our members and to be the public face of Kinesiology in Ireland. The Kinesiology Association of Ireland was founded in 1986 by Professional Kinesiologists, to support one another and to promote Kinesiology.
