The ever-striving challenge to obtain Black Belt excellence is the character and attitude of Choi Kwang-Do instructor, Mr. Charles Gettig.

Mr. Gettig is the owner and head chief instructor at the Buford Choi Kwang-Do Institute located in the "old Historic District" of Buford, GA on Main Street. Here he teaches his students from ages 3 to 60 about the moral fiber of the Martial Arts, including the Tenets of Choi Kwang-Do (Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-Control & Indomitable Spirit).  When continuously learned and diligently practiced  students can see how Martial Arts promotes self-improvement. For the past 10 years, Mr. Gettig has dedicated his life to the art of Choi Kwang-Do, which focuses on personal health and self-defense. Training under the art's founder, Grandmaster Kwang Jo Choi, Mr. Gettig has achieved the rank of 4th Degree Black Belt and appointed as a member on the Georgia Choi Kwang-Do examination committee. Recently, they have added a new addition to the Gettig family, Gabrielle Gettig .

Mr. Gettig has fostered an environment promoting personal excellence and enabling continued growth with no small degree placed on the element of fun for his students. Leading the way with the Buford Choi Kwang-Do Junior Demo Team, his goal of promoting Black Belt Excellence is an everyday task where the "can do" attitude is exemplified. Under the leadership of Mr. Gettig, adult and junior students are amazed by the improved condition of themselves both mentally and physically. Family participants renew and strengthen bonds of togetherness. The family program may coin the phrase "Families That Train Together Remain Together."
