Cok So Won. I'm not sure if that is the spelling. My friend is in the Air Force, and they offer it at his base. From how he talks about it, it sounds a lot like Jujitsu. It was everything Jujitsu has, with a different belt ranking. THey go from like white to blue or something like that. Anyways, my friend is as high ranked in his art as I am in Jujitsu, so he will bring his gi next time, and we can spar a little :D. I'm looking forward to seeing this art in action.

 

Has anyone had any experance in this art? Anyone take this art? How does it compare to Jujitsu or Hapkido? How does it differ?

Hey. I don't know much about Kuk Sool Won, but...

 

There is a good article on Kuk Sool Won, right here at KarateForums. Click here to view it.

 

Hope this helps.

I had about three years of KSW. KSN Doug has many years into it. He's the one to talk to about specific differences and similarities, but I do know Hapkido and KSW have many of the same techniques and strikes. I think KSW has more complex forms. There are some really good instructors down there in Texas if you ever wanted to check out a class.

 

The belt system is:

 

White

 

Yellow

 

Blue

 

Red

 

Brown

 

Brown-Black

 

Black

It's happy hour somewhere in the world.

My friend is in a class in San Angelo, in West Texas (I'm in the East). I might visit him and go to the class some time. It sounds like a good style.
