Welcome back to all our students and families!
A very warm 2022 welcome back to Kuk Sool Won (TM) of Stonehaven.
This year will start off with a few additional restrictions due to the Christmas rise on Covid-19 cases. However, I hope to be able to provide training without too many interruptions.
2022 should be a very busy and exciting year for the school as we turn 2 years old in March – with over 40 students and a growing senior colour belt cadre. I am immensely proud to continue to be your instructor.
Please read the information below to see how this year will be changing.

2022 Price Review
Prices have remained static since we started in 2020 – and we have only ever offered 2 price schemes (online and face to face).
Every effort has been taken to ensure that prices remain as affordable as possible. However a new price scheme will be required from Apr 2022 onwards.
Direct debits will be amended automatically.
Family discounts will still apply.
Prices may be reviewed again if additional classes are introduced. All fees will be reviewed annually.

Members' Website
A significant amount of work has gone into providing our students with the ability to train regardless of their location. Previously, the MyMA members website (a password protected members only section) was used to live stream online classes during the pandemic. This same platform has been updated to provide a structured additional learning tool that is unique for each belt level, and which can be updated to help learners to complete syllabus requirements and send in the completed work. This new online system will be updated continually as the students move up through the belt ranks.
I would strongly recommend that all students log into the members only website and register for access via the follow link.
As the link is specific for each person, all families with more than 1 student practicing, should register per person, to ensure that the information is relevant to the belt level being studied.
