We prioritise the holistic development of our students, fostering empowerment and personal growth.
Choi Kwang Do Martial Art International is a worldwide organisation consisting of affiliated Choi Kwang Do schools. The name Choi Kwang Do originates from the esteemed Grand Master Kwang Jo Choi, with "Choi Kwang” representing his name, and “Do” signifying “The Way. ” As a result, Choi Kwang Do embodies Grand Master Kwang Jo Choi's art and philosophy. Grand Master Choi's extensive grasp of biomechanics, sequential movement, and exercise physiology has enabled him to create a mighty martial art that maximises power in punches and kicks through proper technique, without causing harm to the joints.
