What
is Kinect Martial Arts?
Kinect Martial Arts is a group dedicated to the principles of self defense and health for our students, as well as the philosophies of non-violence and help for the greater good.
Kinect Martial Arts was founded by Steve and Shelly Elrod, who achieved their ranks of International Chief Instructor/Examiner and Chief Instructor respectively in Choi Kwang Do. Aside from their knowledge of this martial art, they also have extensive experience in practical self defense through their years in public service as Pinellas County Sheriff's Deputies. Mr. Steve Elrod is still an active sheriff with the K-9 department, and Shelly Elrod in her last years with the department, ran aggresive training scenarios with new recruits. She used these skills to develop the more family friendly yet still practical Women's Self Defense seminars that are held monthly or bi-monthly at the Florida schools.
Steve and Shelly strive to to offer their students the most practical and well rounded training possible. This includes not only the stand up Choi Kwang Do curriculum (which is our core training), but also close range and optional ground techniques that are required to defend oneself in any situation. Our techniques are easy to learn and practical, our techniques are based on modern scientific principles from physiology, psychology, kinesiology and biomechanics. This means that what you learn in class will not be damaging or stressful to the body in the long term.
Kinect Martial Arts is not associated with Choi Kwang Do Martial Art International, but instead strives to use the best the CKD system has to offer and add to it.
Kinect is a family oriented group and does not condone violence or fighting of any kind. You will not find ring fighting, full contact sparring or tournament fighting here.
At Chois R Us you will find a structured and safe yet friendly relaxed atmosphere promoting maximum learning for people of all ages and abilities.
