Looking For Karate In Morden?

Many adults search for 'karate' when looking to join a martial arts class — it's the most familiar term, even though karate is just one style under the martial arts umbrella. At Cassar Academy, we teach Choi Kwang Do, a modern martial art that shares many of the practical benefits of karate, but adds a unique focus on health, self defence, and progression for adults of all ages.

Adult Class Times
We offer adult martial arts classes every weekday evening (Monday to Friday) as well as convenient lunchtime sessions on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 12–1pm — ideal for busy professionals in Morden. Train when it suits your schedule!
