Home Country:  | Kuk Sool Won is a very comprehensive martial arts founded by two Suh brothers - In Hyuk Suh and In Sun Seo (Suh).
Although I have not studied it personally, I know the training is very similar to Hwa Rang Do, which I studied. Both of them are not like Tae Kwon Do, which has very heavy concentration to kicks and punches. KSW and HRD also concentrate on joint locks, breathing, grappling, weapons, etc.
I would highly recommend KSW to anyone who's serious about martial arts training, and if they are lucky to have found a place that do teach it. (It's not easy to find KSW school) | |

| Yes kuk sool is similar to HWA RANG DO but this for the fact that kuk sool is infact all korean martial arts in one it is a complete martial art coming from all sides of the arts and there well over a 100 scholls in the usa but yes it is hard to find one kuk sool is the largest korean martial known for the fact that tae kwon do is bigger it is considerd a sport there for kuk sool is the largest and i would recomend it to anyone who is looking for a vast knowlege of korean arts | |

Home Country: | I've never seen a KSW school in the US myself (especially in CA), but I've met a person who's father was KSW master so there must be some schools around here.

| Well that's nice to know that there are some schools teaching here in North America; although the name rings a bell, I do not think that we have any place teaching it nearby... | |

Home Country:  | Hwa Rang was the greatest school f the time, it is rumoured that the king of either the Wu Zetian or Later Tang (China) wanted to train his soldiers in the ways of Hwa Rang but was denied..... heehee he wasnt happy, I believe it was during the time of the three kingdoms in Korea....

Home Country:  | Some people say that ksw and Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu are very similar, and from what I've seen it's true, some call KSW the Bujinkan of Korea | |
