For the past few years, whenever someone applies to the school, I have asked them what they hope to gain from martial art training. The answers fall into four basic categories. Here are some of them:
Physical
- Strength
- Balance
- Coordination
- Improved Stamina
Mental
- Focus
- Mental Clarity
- Peace of Mind
- Knowledge
Character
- Discipline
- Self-Control
- Respect
- Confidence
- Philosophy
- Self-Discipline
Fun
- Connect with the Community
- Spend Time with my Kids
And, perhaps my favorite response:
- Learn Legendary Skills
No promises on your status as a Legend
While I can’t promise that your skills will be legendary, I can promise that, with time and practice, you’ll have a shot at everything else on that list.
Never heard of guk sool (or mu sool, or hapkido)?
It’s the study of the traditional martial arts of Korea (which includes family styles, Royal Court martial art, and Buddhist Temple martial art).
Muncie Martial Arts practices Korean Martial Art as a member of Han Guk Mu Sool, a growing association based in the UK. We are proud to serve the Muncie, Yorktown, Anderson, and Winchester areas. We firmly believe that we offer the finest family-oriented martial art education and training in East Central Indiana!

Yes more information! I have a 4 almost 5 year old that I am hoping it could help with confidence and direction and discipline!
Hi Megan! Right now, we don’t have a pre-school class. I’m sorry.
I am looking for a Tai Chi Instructor.
Hi Tammy. We may have spoken already, but Tai Chi is not what we do. We are a traditional martial art school. While we have all the benefits of Tai Chi, we also learn useful self-defense skills, improve cardiovascular fitness, and improve flexibility and mobility to a much greater degree.
