At the start of January, 2009, a flyer was put through my door about The Cassar Academy. Ten years ago I was a dancer and extremely fit, but had left that behind when I went to drama school to train as an actress. After 6 years in 'the business', although I didn't consider myself unhealthy, I was eager to seize the opportunity of making a new year's resolution to get fit again and to learn something new.
I haven't looked back since and Choi is now somewhat of an obsession for me - in fact, I try to fit my other commitments around classes, rather than vice versa. I love the discipline of the art and how I always have something to be working on and improving, not to mention having the opportunity to push myself further than I thought I could and testing my boundaries.
I am pleased to have been welcomed into the 'Choi family' and have made friends with a similar outlook on life. I just can't rave about Choi enough, although those closest to me would, I'm sure, disagree!!
Lastly, my career is a very frustrating and uncertain one and, in Choi, I have found a healthy and effective way to deal with the stresses and tensions of my everyday life.

Choi Kwang Do was developed by Grandmaster Choi in the late 1970s and is a truly unique martial art that is based on the modern scientific understanding of how the human body works and how to develop optimum health.
Think about it – a lot of martial arts were developed hundreds of years ago, and yet our understanding of the human body has increased tremendously.
Of course there are many, many positive elements to traditional martial arts, and Choi Kwang Do is influenced by them. But, it does away with some of the more destructive practices that a lot of traditional martial arts contain.
After all, you deserve to study a martial art that you’ll still be able to practice in old age, not one that will place terrible strain on your body over the years. Choi Kwang Do is this art.
Because Choi Kwang Do was developed using modern science, including Kinesiology (the study of mechanics and anatomy in relation to human movement), it has proven to be one of the most effective martial arts with easy-to-learn movements that work in harmony with your body.
