Academy of Choi Kwang Do Choi Kwang Do & Self-Defence Classes in Townsville City

  My 5 year old daughter wanted to try martial arts and she loves this. The people are lovely and encouraging.

  Very excepting of all ages and exercise ability. Have been having lots of fun here.  

We had an awesome class tonight. Sir took us through patterns, kicks and punches giving encouraging advice. We then focused on the correct motion of the double front inward punch, I feel confident in executing this effectively now. I love these sort of classes where we do some Hit training using one of the Choi drills and also focus and improve a particular technique. Thank you for a great class.

My daughter has reached orange belt status recently and she suggested that I needed to get fit again.After26 years of no exercising I have started to do Choi Kwang Do as well . I can only get better.

Thank you so very much - my dear Lily has been the happiest I have seen her in a very long while since she has started with your centre. THANK YOU!!!!

A martial art was the last thing I thought I would do.  I am not sporty and extremely uncoordinated.  To my surprise, I am loving Choi Kwang do, with the combination of yoga-like stretches, cardio and mindful movement.  The teachers are very supportive and the lack of audience makes it something even the most timid can try.  The punches are fun too!  Give it a go.

I began CKD as an activity that I could do with my 5 year old son. At first, it seemed to be a good option to compliment my triathlon training, but I was quickly impressed by the physical challenges that the CKD curriculum offered me. As a result, I have chosen to make CKD my personal discipline and I have not been disappointed.

Thank you so much for introducing the Ladies Only classes.  The female instructors are supportive, encouraging and patient, allowing me to learn at my own pace without pressure or intimidation. I am now doing something that I never thought I'd have the courage to do. I'm gaining fitness, coordination, and self-confidence, all whilst learning self defence and working towards new goals.....and most importantly, I'm having fun.

No egos or attitudes here. Sound instructional technique coupled with well structured and varied training programs. Martial arts plus life skills/qualities..T.J.

My training in Choi Kwang Do started in 2008 when my ability to take part in sports declined, and I had heard CKD could help. Over the previous 10 years, I had suffered back pain and I had gone from playing golf 3 or 4 times a week to having to give it up. I am delighted with my progress. My flexibility has improved, I am rarely in any pain, and I am able to enjoy golf again. I still have a lot of room for improvement and am looking forward to achieving my goals. Choi has become an important part of my daily routine, has certainly changed my life and definitely for the better." ....

What I like about Choi Kwang-Do is the pure simplicity and effectiveness of it as a self defence system. CKD will give you an effective means to protect yourself without learning any unnecessary frills. It cuts to the real essence of what a martial art should be while being safe to perform and easy to learn.

My daughter, Emma, convinced me to join Choi Kwang do in September 2016. I had attended a lesson for fathers and enjoyed it immensely. After not exercising AT ALL for well over 20 years my fitness level was ZERO. Each week, lesson by lesson, I am now reversing that. The Dojang is so friendly and very family orientated. We are meeting new people each week. The discipline that Choi Kwang Do gives you flows over into your whole life. From the very young to teenagers and then onto adults and even seniors, Choi Kwang Do has something for every group. With my fitness level improving and my belt ranking starting to move up, I can thoroughly recommend this martial art for you and your family.  

Ever since my son started martial arts training, his grades have improved at school, and his behaviour is better at home. I am really impressed at the way he has developed.

If your looking to keep your kids occupied or get them active. I would highly recommend Academy of Choi Kwang Do. They have a class to suit all ages from 3 and up and women's only classes. Donna, John and all the instructors educate their students to respect each other and training to achieve their goals.
