Hapkido

Hapkido is a powerful martial art form developed from Daito-ryu Aiki-jujutsu, in Korea following World War II. This system was later combined with kicking and striking techniques of contemporary Korean arts such as Taekkyeon and Tang Soo Do.

Traditional Hapkido techniques are very fluid and smooth, and include strikes, punches, kicks, joint locks, chokes, pressure points, throws, pins, grappling, and ground fighting.

Hapkido was used as a basis for teaching hand-to-hand combat to Special Forces Troops (Green Berets) in Viet Nam, and is today utilized by various police organizations and special operations military groups throughout the world.

In Korea the Presidential Bodyguards and the Seoul Police SWAT Teams all train in traditional Hapkido, and while every Korean citizen in the military learns Taekwondo, Hapkido is reserved for those training in the special forces.

Hapkido is well suited for men and women of all sizes and ages (14 – adult) because physical strength and athletic abilities are not essential.

In addition to learning effective self-defense,  Hapkido  also provides students with the means to improve their physical fitness, awareness, flexibility and self-confidence.

The result is a practical, street smart comprehensive Self Defense system that is enjoyable to learn and that produces effective results in realistic situations.

Our Hapkido program is internationally accredited through the World Traditional Hapkido Association.
