read moreDerek & Karen are 4th Degree Black Belts in CKD, teaching and running CKD schools in Hampshire as a full-time profession since 2004. In addition, as one of only a handful of CKD instructors around the world, Derek holds a diploma level 'Advanced Chief Instructor' certification. This ensures the very highest standards of instruction, throughout all our classes and the associated Hampshire CKD schools.

YOU can decide how young you want to look, feel, move and act. There can be no greater testimony to the Choi Kwang Do system than the conditioning of Grandmaster Kwang Jo Choi himself. His abilities are those of a man in his early twenties yet he is now in his 7th decade. It's hard to question his claim that he'll be ‘Younger next Year'!

read moreChoi Kwang Do (CKD) can enhance your child's powers of concentration, self-control, discipline and self-esteem. Children's Choi Kwang Do is a healthy, fun workout that promotes a winning but disciplined attitude, which encourages better behaviour at home and at school whilst promoting the mental strength to undertake life's challenges. You can see that, simply by following these principles, your child will develop positive mental, physical and emotional skills. Your child's Choi Kwang Do training is about far more than punching and kicking; it extends from the physical exercise, which is both disciplined and fun, to embrace almost every aspect of a child's world.
