About
Revolution Martial Arts Institute (RMAI) Online brings professional martial arts instruction directly to your home through its community platform on SKOOL. Starting at $49/month, students of all levels — from complete beginners to seasoned practitioners — can access a rich library of video lessons and structured curricula covering traditional martial arts disciplines including Karate, Tang Soo Do, and Taekwondo. A standout offering is the BUNHAE Curriculum, a step-by-step guide to functional self-defense that breaks down and analyzes the deeper meanings behind kata and forms — knowledge historically reserved for advanced insiders. Complementing this is the full Pilsung Moo Do video library, which guides students from foundational techniques all the way through advanced-level material. The platform fosters a vibrant community where students, instructors, black belts, and masters interact and share insights. Upgraded membership tiers unlock specialized 1-on-1 Zoom coaching sessions, providing personalized feedback typically only available in a physical dojo. The platform is fully accessible via laptop or smartphone, making it ideal for practitioners who want to deepen their understanding outside the gym, supplement in-person training, or start their martial arts journey from scratch.

Pros
- Deep Curriculum Depth: The Bunhae program reveals advanced, insider-level knowledge about technique applications that is rarely made available outside a traditional dojo setting.
- Flexible, On-Demand Learning: Students can learn at their own pace on any device, making it easy to supplement in-person training or study entirely from home.
- Live Personalized Coaching: Upgraded tiers offer 1-on-1 Zoom sessions, providing direct instructor feedback that sets this platform apart from purely pre-recorded course sites.
- Active Community Access: The SKOOL community connects learners with experienced practitioners and instructors, enabling ongoing discussion and motivation.
Cons
- Paid-Only Access: There is no free tier; all curriculum content requires a paid membership starting at $49/month, which may be a barrier for casual learners.
- Niche Martial Arts Focus: The platform focuses primarily on Karate, Tang Soo Do, Taekwondo, and Pilsung Moo Do, which may not suit practitioners of other martial arts disciplines like BJJ or Muay Thai.
- Third-Party Platform Dependency: Content is hosted on SKOOL, meaning the learning experience is subject to that platform's interface and any changes to its policies or features.
