@taekwondobarrel Just on this note, the technique is a pressure point hit onto the top of the head and the thumb and small finger hit pressure points above the temple. I have had this done to me by master Alex Suh, trust me, it does hurt and takes vision away for a brief moment with dizzyness to follow.

@MartialArtsGirl13 well said! I don't like it when my friends bash my Kuk Sool, just because i don't train it to fight . Its not always about fighting. Many people take it for the conditioning; many of the kids i teach at our dojang take it to help with their self esteem; I personally take it for the mental clarity i can achieve through meditation, forms and the applications i can find in techniques, but not for the fighting, because i choose not to. Thank you for your comment. It IS the person.

I train Muay thai...but I appreciate all martial arts..I thought on the video some of the wrist locks and throws looked a bit unusable and just showy, but I spotted some nice judo type throws, some viciuos looking weapons techniques and some very powerful spinning kicks..and for those who say spinning kicks dont work just watch the last UFC main event where terry etim got KTFO by one...

@HaedongKumdoIsaLie Please, your .... History lessons are long, and quite interesting. But, you typing all this out isnt going to Change what anyone thinks of Kuk Sa Nim. Who are you eh? Who is he? Dosen't matter. What matters is what you do with your training and displines. Kuk Sool Won is not old. But it's ancestors are. Who cares if its not 100% Korean. Are you 100% you? No your influenced by others. Worry about today and tomorrow. Not what happened years back.

And nobody cares about The History lessons fellow Martial Artists. You should be worrying about your training and your said "What if's". Not proving someone wrong. Worry about where you are going not where past martial arts have been.

Just like any martial arts, The stuff you learn dosent matter. Its what you do with the stuff you learn and how you applicate to your fighting situation. I know lots of people who havent taken a Day of any martial arts in their life. And they could take down many kuk sool students. But dont get confused. It's not Kuk Sool Won. Its the person. A martial art is like a tool. You just gotta find what works best for you!

@RyannRiot115 Ignore the naysayers. They are only jealous. They judge things they inwardly envy because it gives them a brief moment of escape while in their delusion of thinking they are above something that they will never reach.

@RyannRiot115 I'm in the Air Force and saw a poster at my base I was thinking of signing up. Took some Tae Kwon Do and have done Hapkido myself.

And isn't the main point in any martial art respect? Would your masters be proud of you for demeaning other people that are working hard? For mocking the beliefs of others? If this is what is taught in other martial arts, I'm glad I take Kuk Sool. You may beat me in a street fight, but it seems like I'm a better person, so I can live with that.

There seem to be a lot of people with negative views of Kuk Sool Won. They question the history, the techniques, and the general credibility of the martial art. What I want to know is, why? Why do people feel the need to disrespect this martial art and the people who study it? I take Kuk Sool, and frankly, I don't care about the history. I don't care if it was developed 200 years ago in Korea or 30 years ago in some back alley in San Francisco. I enjoy it for what it is now.
