Hapkido is an eclectic Korean martial art that is literally translated as “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 aikijujutsu, but the overall history of Hapkido is shrouded in confusion due to animosity between Korean and Japanese cultures. The main focus of Hapkido is footwork and body positioning used to employ leverage. Strikes, locks, and throws are used as well as pressure points in this form of martial arts.
In this video series, our Hapkido expert starts with basic grabbing techniques and leads you into more complicated chest grabs and cross hand grabs. Learn how to employ Hapkido defense moves and block yourself from a hook punch or overhand punch. Learn how to defend against a side strike and a straight punch from watching these videos.
