Anthony Wendt was born and bred in Richmond, and it was always his dream to bring Choi Kwang-Do back to his home town.

Born in 1975, Anthony showed an interest in martial arts at a very early age. Anthony started Choi Kwang-Do in Richmond at the age of 14, and was a regular and devoted student for the next 4 years.

Due to the closure of the Richmond location, Anthony was forced to postpone training in Choi Kwang-Do. During this time, Anthony continued with his studies at college in Business, with Accounts being his chosen career. He also experimented with various martial arts, including Kickboxing and Kung Fu.

In 2002 Anthony returned to Choi Kwang-Do more determined and focused than ever. Anthony now realised that Choi Kwang-Do had the answers that other systems were missing.

Under the tutelage of Master Jason Wright, Anthony was awarded Assistant Instructor status in 2003 and obtained 1st Degree Black Belt in 2004. Anthony then became a Chief Instructor in 2005.

In 2006, Anthony reached his next goal, gaining his 2nd Degree Black Belt.
He knew the time was then right to look upon opening his own school in his home town.

 

 

Since then, there has been no stopping him!  In December 2009, Anthony was promoted to the rank of 3rd Degree Black Belt.

 

Choi Kwang-Do Richmond first opened its doors in July 2007, and has built a reputation of first class tuition. Anthony teaches and trains regularly twice a week. Choi Kwang-Do is back in Richmond!
