Introduction to Kuk Sool Won™

The development of Kuk Sool Won™ is a significant event in the history of Korean martial art, because it represents a systematic study of the entire range of traditional Korean martial arts. In order to understand the significance and the complexity of Kuk Sool Won™, it is important to differentiate between a style of Martial Art and a system of Martial Art styles. Tae Kwon Do, Shotokan, Judo, Tang Soo Do, Aikido, Hapkido, and so on are all different martial art styles. Kuk Sool Won™, on the other hand, is not really a style of martial art at all, but is instead a highly scientific, comprehensive martial art system. This means that Kuk Sool Won™ is not limited to a particular style of martial art, but instead incorporates the entire Korean martial art spectrum dating from ancient times to the present. It includes many Martial Art styles within its scope.
