CKD equips students with practical self-defence techniques designed to be effective in real-world situations. The focus is on developing powerful techniques without the need for brute strength, allowing even smaller or less physically strong children to defend themselves effectively.

6. Enhanced Cognitive Function

The integrated movements of Choi Kwang Do are specifically designed to stimulate both sides of the brain, improving co-ordination, focus and cognitive abilities. This leads to better academic performance and greater ease in learning new skills.

Many of our students form lifelong bonds, creating a close-knit family within the academy that makes every individual feel valued and connected.
