Hapkido is an eclectic Korean martial art; its name means “the way of coordinating energy” or “the way of coordinated power.” Hapkido is ultimately used as self-defense and combines other skilled martial arts with common attacks. There is a historical link to Daito-ryu Aiki-jujutsu, but the overall history of Hapkido is shrouded in confusion due to animosity between Korean and Japanese cultures leftover from the Great War. The main focus of Hapkido is footwork and body positioning used to employ leverage. In this form of martial arts, strikes, locks, and throws are the focus, as well as pressure points.
