Hapkidodude Posted August 27, 2001 Posted August 27, 2001 Is there anyone here that trains Hapkido from a Hapkido dojang? I know that alot of TKD dojangs show some techniques. The dojang that I train at is only Hapkido. We do not have forms, only techniques. BrettThe Hand is quicker than the eye!

niel0092 Posted August 27, 2001 Posted August 27, 2001 Hi Hapkidodude, I'd love to train in hapkido but there's nothing close by. One of my instructors in the UofM club trained in hapkido and showed me a few moves after class. My favorite one is where they start by grabing your wrists, you go up and over their hands to break the hold, grab their uniform and yank them down, twist around behind their back and choke them with their own shirt.

iamrushman Posted September 5, 2001 Posted September 5, 2001 just recently i have discovered a combat hapkido school in my area. this club specializes in paracombative skills with techniques such as deflecting and evading, joint manipulation, pressure points, grappling, and the traditional hapkido throwing and sweeps. i am going to check out a couple of classes and talk with the instructor. i will fill everyone in after i see if they are legit. rushman (karate forums sensei)3rd dan wtf/kukkiwon"saying nothing...sometimes says the most"--e. dickerson
Angus Posted September 10, 2001 Posted September 10, 2001 HapKiDo and freeestyle Kickboxing are my base styles... HapKiDo's pretty good for all-round defence, i must say. Angus Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear.
taezee Posted September 10, 2001 Posted September 10, 2001 no baby....steffe that is... its is a style i would compare with akido and jiujitsu..very good for self defense...

Chris from CT Posted September 24, 2001 Posted September 24, 2001 Hi, all. I just found this site and wanted to say hello. I train in Hapkido in Connecticut. We only have forms after black belt and for weapons. Other that that it's all "hands on."
