This is the Dojang where I work out. It is the 15th anniversary of the school. I invite all that are curious, who are looking for a way to stretch and loosen up the grips of age. Parents I ask you bring your children, start them early, build their confidence, and self esteem. A wonderful workout

★★★★★ — John, May 2020

My 8 year son has been with Mr Taylor and his staff since he was 4 years old. He loves them. Mr. Kelly and Mr. Cameron are two of his favorite instructors. Each of the staff members are passionate and consistent with the children. They set clear expectations and achievable goals. He looks forward to class.

★★★★★ — Wildflower, Sep 2021

I took Choi Kwang Do classes for roughly six months, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. The class is incredibly informative and perfect for those who prefer not to have a lot of hands-on contact with others.

New to kickboxing? Start at Choi Kwang Do of North Florida, LLC

Choi Kwang Do of North Florida, LLC comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or coordinated to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale every drill to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable gyms build the basics (stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads and bags) first, and any contact eases in gradually under a coach's control. Third, all fitness levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.

Your first kickboxing class at Choi Kwang Do of North Florida, LLC

Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Kickboxing is a contact sport. Warm up, pace yourself, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
