BRISBANE CHOI KWANG DO
School-based programs in the Ashgrove QLD area
We are a Black Belt club
Brisbane CKD
Choi Kwang Do (CKD) is a unique martial art based on modern scientific principles and developed to promote health, fitness and self-defence, not winners in sports competitions. CKD is a non-contact, non-fighting, non-competitive art that stresses mental, physical, emotional and social development. CKD promotes non-violent resolutions to conflict, practical solutions to cardiovascular improvement and enjoyable sustainable methods of exercise.
