Choi Kwang Do is a unique 21st century martial art based on scientific principles developed to promote optimum health, fitness and self-defense, as well as personal growth. We are an international martial art that is in over 40 nations worldwide!
Choi Kwang Do was developed by Grandmaster Kwang Jo Choi primarily between the years of 1978 and 1987 but continues to evolve as more research is done to make the art the most effective martial art 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 is a unique program based on the modern scientific principles of human anatomy, physiology, psychology, kinesiology, neurophysiology, and biomechanics.
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. Choi Kwang Do promotes non-violent resolutions to conflict, practical solutions to cardiovascular improvement, and enjoyable methods of exercise. With competition removed from the curriculum, students continually develop, not against each other, but with each other.
Choi Kwang Do has something for everyone from any age, background, and even those who would not be able to do other martial arts because of physical disabilities. We do not compare one student to another. We look at each student as an individual and help them to become all that they can be. Taking part in Choi Kwang Do is more than just an activity to do. You are joining a family that will help you to meet your full potential.
