Next Gen Mu Sool
Currently we are offering in-person classes to all vaccinated students, and children under 12 years of age from vaccinated families. We also offer a full-schedule Virtual Class program for anyone regardless of vaccination status, and those who don't feel comfortable training in person at this time.

At Next Gen Mu Sool, we teach a curriculum that is strongly tied to Kuk Sool, Mu Sool, Hanminjok, and Hapkido. It is a Korean martial art, and includes hand strikes, kicking techniques, falling, forms (such as Ki Cho Hyung and Goh Guep Hyung), and extensive techniques sets (such as Ki Bon Soo and Sohn Mohk Soo).
Services
If you have had previous training in martial arts, you may find some similarities with the way you have trained, especially if you have trained in Kuk Sool, Mu Sool, Hapkido, Han Mu Do, or Ba Ki Do. We do Ki Bon Soo, Ki Cho Hyung, and Juhng Guhm Hyung, just to name a few. We welcome you to come visit us and see if continuing your martial arts training with us is the way for you.
Next Gen Mu Sool is committed to providing courses that fit every skill level and background. Learn practical self defense and a healthy lifestyle through our supportive and innovative teaching approach. Check out our current course offerings below. This course has been highly regarded by young ones and their families, and has provided the perfect foundation to enter the next level of learning.

My boyfriend has been doing martial arts for several years! This school is like home to him. The instructors/owners are amazing! They were very welcoming when I first met them. Since then they’ve become family.
They have great MA programs for adults and children! A fantastic fit program which I did! Great holiday events! The owners do so much for their school and deserve more than just a good review!
I can’t wait for my child to be old enough to attend their school! I highly recommend Next Gen Mu Sool!!

We have been beyond impressed by this family owned business- and how they've handled COVID. Our daughter started with this group in 2018 and we were so impressed- she and her cousin enjoyed 3x per week classes and even some private lessons. We've done their camps 2 summers and it was a real family affair- she is shy, doesn't like the "confrontation" or "aggressiveness" of other sports, and we felt she really gained confidence and skill with Meghan and Ricky. Then- COVID happened. We weren't sure how a small, family run dojang would acclimate to people not

I’ve been training at Next Gen Mu Sool for nearly two years now. Before going into martial arts I was already motivated to lose weight and learn about self defense, but I never really had a place where I felt comfortable working out besides my home.
I started attending after one of my best friends told me about this awesome martial arts school he goes to and asked if I wanted to try it. It really surprised me how welcoming everyone was. The instructors are passionate, knowledgeable, helpful, respectful and they have a good sense of humor.
After joining they continued improving by adding classes

I have been training in Next Gen Mu Sool for over 14 years now and have only grown fonder of the art and the family that this school offers. This school has improved my martial arts abilities but also my own confidence. Next Gen Mu Sool is not just a school but also a community that allows everybody to connect as a whole. The owners are amazing and always pushing for new ways on how to bring the family closer together. Even through the covid-19 pandemic that has caused everyone to social distance and separate; Ricky and Meghan Garcia have kept providing new and engaging virtual activities and challenges

I trained under Ricky starting at the age of 8ish for years, until I was finishing high school and my life got too busy/ priorities changed. I can't say enough good things about Ricky, Meghan and their school. I use to be apart of another organization that Ricky was an instructor at, but when he decided to start his own school, I followed because he felt like family, made classes so much fun and I knew I that he was the best instructor at the previous school.
I haven't been a student here in around 4 years but I just felt the need to come on here and say that when I left the owners were incredibly

I have known Ricky and Meghan for most of my martial arts career (more than 20 years). I have been to different schools and different styles, just to check them out, and this is definitely the school I will always call home. My children have grown up and out of the house, but they still retain their friendships with Ricky and Meghan.My wife and I continue to attend the Fit classes. I helped train many of the instructors that now teach at Next Gen, and I can say that with 100% surety, I am extremely proud of how these boys have turned in to outstanding young men. You will not find a better group

Both my son and my daughter have been training here for 4 plus years. My son recently obtained his black belt and my daughter hopes to get hers one day. My children love both instructors and their fellow students. This place is much more than just a martial arts school, it's a family. Both Ricky and Meghan go above and beyond not to just teach martial arts but to nurture our children and help guide them to a successful future. I HIGHLY recommend this facility if you are interested in getting your child or yourself into martial arts!

I have trained at Next Gen Mu Sool for about three years, and find that the owners and primary instructors are very skilled and knowledgeable. Their program for children and youth is one of the best in the Austin area. I have and continue to recommended it to others. The adult program is also top quality.
Having preciously trained in martial arts, I also find it refreshing that the owners have not allowed the school to become a "black belt mill" awarding senior ranks to undeserving students.

We have been a part of Next Gen Mu Sool family for over 5 years. My oldest son recently earned his black belt and my other son is excelling as well. Both boys have really enjoyed being a part of the school and look forward to classes. The instructors make the classes fun but challenging to develop the skills to become a great martial artist.

I have been at this school for 8 years and I plan on staying. All the instructors and teachers are so supportive and helpful to all ages. It doesn't matter if you are 6 years old or 46 years old, this school has amazing opportunities. The instructors are not only amazing martial artists, but they are great teachers. They take so much time to make sure every single student is taught equally.
Even when Covid-19 hit we were able to smoothly transition to online classes where we learn and train just as hard as we would if we were in person.
Because of the welcoming environment of this school, I have

I started with Next Gen Mu Sool when I was looking for some distraction from work stress and some new community. I immediately felt welcomed and supported by the owners and the crew of black belts. I was totally new to martial arts, or really anything like it, and so it was totally outside of my comfort zone. It felt vulnerable for me to try it out.
But after just one class of the Mu Sool Fit boot camp class, I knew it was a great crew who would teach me without judgment and with tons of heart and enthusiasm. I started taking the martial arts classes, too, and loved them. Even though I can say

Best martial arts school in Austin, the owners have worked very hard to create an all inclusive community -my kids enjoy summer camps and classes and I (middle aged female) started classes last year and have had an amazing experience! Highly recommend this school.

We planned a Wonder Woman party for my 10 year old daughter and we're looking for a martial arts instructor to come teach the kids "Amazon" training. When I spoke to the owner, Ricky, he was really excited about the idea and said he had the perfect girls to send. He was so right! Julia and Lily arrived with a gift of Wonder Woman bracelets for the bday girl and thought the kids blocks, jumps, and the Wonder Woman block. Then the kids got to break boards. They loved it! They were professional and most of all fun!

Amazing school teaching an incredibly well rounded and complete traditional martial art system. Ricky and Meghan teach respect, honor, personal accountability and discipline, all while keeping it fun and motivating. They truly have passion for the martial art and for every student they teach!
