Building Better Futures through Martial Arts

Welcome to Kuk Sool Won of the River Valley
Family Martial Arts

In 2005, Kuk Sool Won of the River Valley began serving the city of Fort Smith, Arkansas and other surrounding communities in the River Valley, by offering quality martial arts instruction and training. We provide classes for children, teens and adults. Our vision is to build a healthier and safer community by helping people get in shape, teaching smart self defense, and to instill the life skills and character of a true martial artist by upholding important values like courtesy, patience, respect, self control, integrity, and honor.

Kuk Sool Won will also help you to achieve self-discipline, high self-esteem, a positive outlook, a spirit of constant improvement, and an attitude of humility that refuses to give up. These values and life skills will lead to remarkable improvements in academics, careers, and relationships, literally making a better community one black belt at a time.

No One Sits on the Bench at Kuk Sool Won of the River Valley

Martial arts is not a team sport, the only person that you are competing with is yourself. Students come to us from all ages. Some are in shape, while others are overweight. Some come for self-defense, physical fitness, and others for fun. Each person is treated as an equal and is trained to the best of their own ability and potential. A student is never compared to anyone else. At Kuk Sool Won of the River Valley, our instructors are there to guide, instruct, and motivate you to be the best that you can be.

Our Academy

Our mission is to provide the public with a safe and positive facility to grow stronger and learn to succeed in all walks of life through the practice of traditional Korean martial arts. Our classes are taught in a group environment, but we pride ourselves in providing our students with individual attention from highly qualified instructors. This unique quality makes us the premier academy for martial arts training in the Fort Smith River Valley area and other surrounding areas including Oklahoma. At Kuk Sool Won of the River Valley, you and your family will have the opportunity to learn a unique system of self-defense, increase your level of physical fitness, and enjoy an activity that promotes longevity, discipline, and personal development.
