Abstract: We study geometry of the weak almost para-$f$-structure and its subclasses. This allow us to produce totally geodesic foliations and also to take a fresh look at the para-$f$-structure introduced by A.,Bucki and A.,Miernowski. We demonstrate this by generalizing several known results on almost para-$f$-manifolds. First, we express the covariant derivative of $f$ using a new tensor on a metric weak para-$f$-structure, then we prove that on a weak para-$calK$-manifold the characteristic vector fields are Killing and $kerf$ defines a totally geodesic foliation. Next, we show that a para-$calS$-structure is rigid (i.e., a weak para-$calS$-structure is a para-$calS$-structure), and that a metric weak para-$f$-structure with parallel tensor $f$ reduces to a weak para-$calC$-structure. We obtain corollaries for $p=1$, i.e., for a weak almost paracontact structure.
