Fort Smith Martial Arts Center

Welcome to the facebook page of Mu Sool Won of Fort Smith - Korean Martial Arts Training Center! I am Mr. Joshua White, the founder and Chief Instructor of the Dojang, or Academy, here in Fort Smith, Arkansas. I currently hold a 4th Degree Black Belt in the Traditional Martial Arts of Mu Sool Won and have been studying martial arts since the age of five. I have been honored to have had many wonderful training experiences throughout my career and I am excited to be able to share future experiences, and my knowledge, with you!

The art of Mu Sool Won is first, and foremost, a military martial art designed to effectively defend oneself against attackers ranging from standing defense, grappling defense, and weapon defense. However, our art is not a complete martial art due to our vast array of kicking, punching, grappling, weaponry, and breathing techniques. We are a complete martial art due to our commitment to excellence, my own effort into making each future black belt a true martial artist, and because we each strive to become better people throughout our training. My own Master, Byung In Lee, likes to refer to Mu Sool Won as a “family martial art”. Not because the art is an easy extracurricular activity but because we grow family bonds as a school and families that train together find that their own bonds become much stronger!

Over the years that I have been instructing martial arts to my students, I have tried my best to pass down the very same traits inherent in the art that were given to me by my teachers. At Mu Sool Won of Fort Smith, you will learn the Rang Do Kyo Hoon (Disciple or Student Virtues). These virtues are Patience, Courtesy, Goodness, Courage, Wisdom, Loyalty, and Humility. This martial art, as with any endeavor that includes both physical and mental feats, requires much patience. If you have enough patience, then there is no stopping you!

This facebook page is designed to answer most, if not all, your questions regarding training but remember that if you have a question our phone number/email is located in the "contact us" potion of the webpage.

I hope you find what you are looking for in the art of Mu Sool Won and I hope to see you soon!

Sincerely,
Joshua White
Chief Instructor/Owner
