Wasatch Martial Arts Academy is a certified member of the US Soo Bahk Do Moo Duk Kwan Federation, giving us a direct connection to the roots of Soo Bahk Do. You will find each class taught by highly professional instructors who are able to blend both ancient philospohy and tradition with modern scientific application.

our art

We train in the art of Soo Bahk Do. Soo Bahk is known as the oldest Korean martial art recorded. Because of its long history, Soo Bahk Do has become extremely versatile and demands mastery of the whole Body with techniques ranging from quick and spontaneous movements to slow graceful flowing movements. Soo Bahk Do offers much more than just practical self defense. We use Soo Bahk Do to realize our full potential and emphasize "virtue in action" demonstrating courage, discipline, confidence and humility through our sincere efforts in training and our behavior towards others. You won't just hear our philosophy you'll see it in action. Learn more about Soo Bahk Do here.
