Hapkido is the art and science of self defence. It combines a powerful arsenal of kicks and punches, with thrusts, sweeps and a combination of hard and soft hand techniques. Throws and wrist and joint locks are also a feature of Hapkido.
Hapkido is based on three principles and through the knowledge of these, an opponents force can be used against them. This makes Hapkido truly a form of Self Defence that everyone can use. We also offer full time training, private lessons, instructor courses, as well as special seminars to improve and expand your knowledge.
We regularly hold seminars with international guest instructors as well as holding international training trips.
