Welcome to The Choi Foundation Brighton & Hove Self-Defence School, part of the worldwide Choi Kwang Do Martial Art International network.
We are based at Dorothy Stringer School Sports Complex, Loder Road, Brighton (BN1 6PZ) and proudly teach martial arts with a focus on personal growth, confidence, and real-world self-defence skills.
Martial arts is about so much more than learning to move – it’s about the strength to feel safe, capable and confident in every part of your life. Health, Self-defence & Confidence for Everyone
At The Choi Foundation, we teach CHOI KWANG DO: a safe, non-competitive martial art suitable for all ages, backgrounds and fitness levels. Whether you’re looking to get fitter, learn practical personal safety skills, or grow in self-assurance, we have a place for you.
We never rush progress or compare you to others. Every class is taught with patience, care, and respect – so you can learn at your own pace, free from pressure.

Family Tip
Teach children simple awareness habits, such as knowing where trusted adults are, identifying safe public places, and recognising when to seek help.
2. Confidence and Body Language
Confidence can act as a deterrent.
People who appear alert, confident, and purposeful are often seen as less vulnerable targets. Self-defence training helps improve:
- Posture
- Eye contact
- Assertive communication
- Decision-making under pressure
Confidence doesn’t mean acting aggressively. It means appearing aware and prepared.
