Patrick.S Posted May 28, 2005 Posted May 28, 2005 Hopefully this is the correct forum to post this...from Jun, 1st to Jun, 5th I will be in Eden Prairie, Minnesota 55344and I'm looking for a Kuk Sool Won school or student to train together during that time.with best regards,patrick.
isshinryu5toforever Posted May 29, 2005 Posted May 29, 2005 Contact Grandmaster Dr. Terry Warner. He doesn't teach Kuk Sool Won, however if anyone would know an instructor he would be it. Here is his info. He's an extremely nice guy, just give the number a call. (651)777-05881998 Castle Road Maplewood, MN 55109Maple Wood, MNAlso, there are schools in places like North St. Paul and Edina that are called things like American Karate or other titles that may actually be Kuk Sool Won. Some of those names are just for selling the school to the public check it out. Hope it helps. He who knows others is wise.

Your support is very appreciated.
SBN Doug Posted May 29, 2005 Posted May 29, 2005 Closest official school is Chicago.You could try checking at the local universities to see if there is a club going, or just call world KSW headquarters and ask them.Sorry Kuk Sool Won - 4th danEvil triumphs when good men do nothing.
taiji fajin Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 Chicago??? That's far too far away.There's a Kuk Sool school in St. Paul, Minn. Its run by Steffen Kellogg. I can vouch for him, he'll be a great teacher. Its a small school, so you'll get lots of attention, and he'll make sure you know your material. His is not one of those schools where people slide by without really being able to do the work. The trip shouldn't be long, probably around 30 min away, roughly. Fetch Daddy's blue fright wig!

isshinryu5toforever Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 he was probably referring to the closest school that is internationally registered with an organization. Many schools around the Minneapolis/St. Paul area and my area are great, but they aren't registered with international organizations. He who knows others is wise.

Patrick.S Posted May 31, 2005 Author Posted May 31, 2005 Thanks to all that answered.I appreciate every hint, to a official (listed) school or other.Of course I would be very glad if I can find a Kuk Sool Won Dojang or practioneer there (near Eden Prairie) but I appreciate and honor of course every kind of martial artist who would give me the possibility to train together.thanks patrick.
tufrthanu Posted June 1, 2005 Posted June 1, 2005 Wow thats like half a mile from me. I didn't know there were any KSW schools in the TC or I would have looked into them. How much will you be charging for your seminar? If there is anything I can help you with on my end let me know Patrick S. Long Live the Fighters!
isshinryu5toforever Posted June 1, 2005 Posted June 1, 2005 Eden Prarie is not far from St. Paul. I drive an hour one way to get to my dojo. Eden Prarie is something like 20 minutes outside of St. Paul maybe less. I wouldn't be too concerned with that kind of drive if I were you. That is something that must be understood about the Twin Cities area. If you are looking for a specific martial art you will have to take what you can get. If you were looking for Isshin-Ryu Karate (my style) you would have to go to Turtle Lake, WI, as far as I know there is not another school any closer. If you don't want to go to St. Paul, give Dr. Warner a call like I mentioned before and see if he knows anyone else. If he does not, you should take what you can get even if it is in St. Paul.

I forgot about St. Paul.Ever since they changed the website, I keep forgetting to change the region when looking for schools.http://www.kuksoolwon.com/schools01a.htmlMy appologies.
