What is Choi Kwang Do?
Choi Kwang Do is a unique martial art based on scientific principles and developed to promote optimum health, fitness and self-defense, not winners in sports competitions.

Choi Kwang Do was developed by Grandmaster Kwang Jo Choi between 1978 and 1987 and has proven to be the most effective martial arts system in the world. Choi Kwang Do's natural, easy-to-learn, sequential movements maximize your body's force-producing capabilities, but more importantly, they increase opportunities to enhance your health. It's a unique program based on modern scientific principles from human anatomy.

Choi Kwang Do is not designed for competition and does not follow the intensity of sports training. The system is meant for all individuals who want to learn real-life, practical self-defense skills and achieve a greater level of health and well-being, not people solely interested in winning trophies.

Choi Kwang Do is a non-contact, non-fighting, non-competitive art that increases mental, physical, emotional and social development. Choi Kwang Do promotes non-violent resolutions to conflict, and enjoyable methods of exercise. In addition, with competition removed, students can continually develop - not against each other, but with each other. The progressive syllabus from Choi Kwang Do always offers you something new and challenging to learn, experience and enjoy.
