It's always a good time, and every day is a little different. I've been more active and have more energy because of class, and if I get into a fight I know how to defend myself. Best class I've ever been to! — Mariah K.
I've been studying Kuk Sool Kwan for three years and what a difference! When I first joined I did not realize the things I would be able to do. I'm in my 40s and in the best shape of my life. — Daniel B.
Very few schools offer knowledge as well as good clean technique. At other schools I never really understood the history of the things i was doing or the why. — Marcel G.
