"From Sophie - aged 10- mum - Sophie started with the club in Nov 21. She was not keen to attend but her mum signed her up for a trial class. She now loves attending training and doesn't want to ever miss a class. Sophie has recently obtained her Blue belt and is looking forward to more testings and competitions this year. In her own words she says "Kuk Sool is amazing! It has improved my confidence a lot and is good exercise. I have made new friends and its lots of fun!""
From Alan - Almost a year to the day Id retired from distance running following an injury and was languishing about, fed up with no motivation and in desperate need of a new hobby. A friend asked why not try Kuk Sool. Intrigued, I turned up for my first class in Bathgate full of intrepidation given I was an of shape old bloke (55 to be exact) having never done martial arts. 12 months on I've reached blue belt and found just about the friendliest, most welcoming group of people of all ages encouraging you every step of the way. I've made new friends, have a new social life and discovered I can do stuff I never thought possible. I can't recommend this highly enough. And did I tell you I'm now able to break a thick wooden board.
"From Scott - age 45 - As my children grew up, I made the much needed decision to get myself back in shape. On the recommendation of a friend I tried Kuk Sool instead of signing up to a gym again. Kuk Sool has given me everything I used to get from a gym and so much more. Strength, fitness, confidence and a real sense of camaraderie from the day I started. The classes are so varied and I am learning new skills every week. I started in 20018 and will hopefully achieve black belt sometime in 2023. "
