Principles of modern science, derived from psychology, plyometrics, kinesiology and bio-mechanics form the basis for Choi Kwang Do. It is designed to be a devastatingly effective self-defense system that can be used in real street situations. Choi Kwang Do has been designed to enhance the student’s overall health, fitness and well-being rather than cause the injuries and damage that many competitive activities do.
