Brighton Martial Arts and Self-defence fitness classes, The Choi Foundation, Robert Tanswell

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.

At Brighton Self-Defence, martial arts is not only about physical techniques—it’s about developing the mind and body together.

Confidence. Mental Wellbeing. Self-Defence. Fitness.

Our mission is to help every student build strength, focus, and resilience—skills that extend far beyond the training hall.

Our family-friendly Brighton martial arts programme allows parents and children to train in parallel sessions, tailored to each age group.

  • Kids learn confidence and resilience to deal with challenges like bullying
  • Adults develop real-world self-defence skills
  • Families enjoy staying active together in a safe, welcoming environment

We create a positive, encouraging atmosphere where students feel comfortable and supported. Progress happens at your own pace, while confidence and self-esteem grow naturally through training.

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.
