Pruter's U.S. Martial arts is a true merger of American and Korean cultures.
Our martial arts academy began over 25 years ago when a 17 year old girl began
taking Taekwondo in Independence Missouri from a Korean immigrant named Master
Ko. It is interestingly prophetic that the Korean name of Ko means, “heaven,
sky, ever expanding,” because that is what happened to Pruter's U.S. Martial
Arts, it ever expanded.
Since that first Taekwondo lesson Pruter's U.S. Martial Arts has grown
to a chain of martial arts school's and branch programs that include over 400
loyal and dedicated Taekwondo students. Our commitment to growth as human beings
and as a martial arts community has lead to our simplified philosophy, treat
all students with equal respect, treat all students like family, and love people
and use money, never the other way around. A wise Grand Master and personal
friend I.K. Kim once told the Pruter's “if you do what is right everything
will be OK.”
Our martial arts program is:
Goal Oriented
Step by step achievement creates the sense of accomplishment with the ultimate
goal of joining the community of Pruter's U.S. Martial Arts Black Belt students.
Confidence in one's own ability and respect for others create a perfect environment
for the advancement in the martial arts and future life goals.
Discipline with a Purpose
Discipline is essential to goals but without purpose it will
not have life long drive. Discipline is expected from our student's and our
student's can expect from their instructors consistent care and instruction
to bring the best out of each student. Real life applications are given to
better appreciate purpose behind the art.
Self-Defense
Many people choose the art of Taekwondo for self-defense purposes.
We train our students to always use their training to defend themselves only
and never for aggressive purposes. Although very disciplined, its very nature
is rooted in humility and respect for others; to empower the weak and temper
the strong.
Great Physical Conditioning
An excellent form of exercise, Taekwondo training provides you with a full-body
workout, increasing flexibility, muscle tone, and aerobic conditioning. Many
older students continue in this ancient discipline well into the later years
of life, and the best part is, they never get bored.
