Kuk Sool Won [Glasgow]

Kuk Sool Won [Glasgow] opened its doors in February 2007, and within its first three months was racking up success by scooping 25 out of a possible 32 medals at the Scottish Championships in its first year (2008) being recognised as one of the top UK schools for tournament success.

It All Started Here

KSN Scott McLaughlin began training in Kuk Sool in 2001 under the tuition of Master Don MacKenzie, PSBN Wullie Ennis & SBN Gavin Chung, achieving his Black Belt in 2005. 



Still Competing

Since starting Kuk Sool, KSN Scott has competed at various competitions throughout the UK and Europe, and has also competed in the 2008 World Championships.

 



Media

KSN Scott and his school have featured in various magazines and newspapers, and all of this, from a school that has only been open since February 2007.  Scott firmly believe this success is a direct reflection of the hard work and high standards of each and every student.

 



Quality Instruction

KSN Scott McLaughlin has been granted the operating rights for Kuk Sool Won in Glasgow by the World Kuk Sool Association.  Kuk Sool Won is the only martial arts system in the World to have a single international regulatory body directly led by the founding Grand Master, ensuring the very highest quality of instruction, to exacting and specific standards, across the globe.

 



Leading By Example

KSN Scott believes in leading by example, and in doing so joins in with his classes when teaching, and that can mean every sweat inducing push up!

 



Tradition & Post-Modernity

KSN Scott believes in following and teaching all of the traditional aspects of martial arts, while also providing a relaxed and welcoming class.  A true balance of results and relationships.
