Hapkido is a Korean martial art of self defense practiced the world over characterized by its highly effective hand strikes, joint locks, and dynamic kicking techniques. Hapkido uses hands, feet, elbows, and knees for blocking, striking, evading, avoiding, deflecting, redirecting, joint locks, leg sweeps, tripping, throws, chokes, and deadly pressure point techniques to overcome and subdue an attacker. It is unique among the Korean martial arts because of its emphasis on deflecting, redirecting, and counter striking an opponents attacks by evading and throwing instead of forceful blocking as in other hard style martial arts like Taekwondo or Soo Bahk Do. Like Taekwondo it specializes in head height kicks, jumping kicks, spinning kicks, etc., and employs a unique set of lower kicks making Hapkido a very effective advanced self defense system.

More than just a physical fighting skill, it is a way of life, thought, and behavior. For this reason the doctrine of Taekwondo & Hapkido is mandatory for all students as follows:

Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self Control, and Indomitable Spirit.
