as a bouncer and as a security professional and as a instructor with 40 years of martial arts experience - Hapkido techniques have served me well in the street as well as at work against opponants of various levels of skill and experience.
All of the members of the protective detail of the South Korean Presidential Guard are required to be experts in hapkido. Military and law-enforcement personnel the world over learn the art. If it didn't work, they would not use it - period.
@@borntodoit8744 How many years do you have to train in it for it to work? answer: years and then only against drunks or those who have no fighting ability at all.
Hapkido save my life. Learn this discipline when I was a young kid in 70s. They emphasized on how to fall. When I fell from the roof sideways on concrete, in split second, somehow I remembered how to keep my head up to avoid brain injury, slam down on my palm and elbow to minize the shock. My shouder took all the shock. I do have a messed up shoulder now but thank god my head is ok. Did some high school wrestling. And that wrist throw is same concept as hip toss, head lock, shoulder throw and etc. It is the same feet placement as I learned in wrestling. Also, there was one techinque in there that was same as russian bear arm where you place your feet between opponent's feet. I remember wrestilong coach telling me if dont place my feet in between I will be vulnerable to counter attack whivh is hip toss.
In the mid 70s I trained under Grand Master Bong Soo Han in Santa Monica, Ca for 4 years. He is the one that brought Hapkido to the U.S., and he was the one that did the park fight scene in the old "Billy Jack" movie, and played Billy Jack's instructor in "The trial of Billy Jack", and had taught Tom McLaughlin the art in real life. GM Han was only about 5' 4" - 5' 5" and when he did the spinning heel kick while I held the mitt for him, the force of his hitting my hand would knock me down. EVERY TIME! Every time I see some martial arts movie and I see someone take that kick to the head and just shake it off I laugh. Master Han would use me for demonstrations of new techniques because I knew how to take a fall, and one day he called me up and instructed me to step in and punch at his face. OK, here I go....I swear to you - I NEVER felt him touch me, the next thing I knew I was upside down in mid-air and heading for the ground! I bounced back up and asked him how the heck he did that, and he demonstrated it slower. All he had done was step into me, grab the front of my gi, and turned his body while pulling down on my gi. I never felt him touch me because it was my GI that threw me, and the momentum of my punch that just spun me around and flipped me over. All these years later I can still remember that moment clearly. He was an amazing man.
I studied under GM Martin Dixon, one of his students, as well as GM Leo Domino, both there in SE LA, in the 90's. A mix of Daehan Minguk Hapkido, Okinawan Kenpo and Chinese Judo. There's nothing like it in the world. People don't even know, sadly. But at 46 years old and after countless injuries and surgeries, I can still hit a person faster than they can see. Daehan Minguk Hapkido is the REAL MMA. Fully practical and, as the KHF's mission statement says, it's not a sport. I watched Sensei Dixon put a guy to sleep with a finger jab. Knocked him out cold.
hapkido is a force and really does stress an opponents joint.....love it never needed to throw a kick when using hapkido.....as a kid in the 70s i learned how to fall and be thrown before learning the locking tecniques...very underrated martial art technique
I notice a lot of people always comparing the traditional arts to MMA but I rarely see the mention of situation. Using the technique exampled above is primarily for the big street bully situation, and this exact position seems to come up often with the tough guy grabbing the other. Meanwhile, in MMA two fighters are planning to fight, they both know they are going to fight, and are set across from each other with no other intention but to engage in battle. On the street, the tough guy who grabs you may not be fully anticipating a fight, or be trained specifically for fighting. Thus, techniques like above or many other techniques are meant for exterior situations outside of professional trained ring combat. Just my thoughts on the matter.
You are absolutely right. Self defense situations are not like an MMA match. In MMA when the ref says "Go", you fight, everyone knows you then fight; you, your opponent, and everyone watching. That's what's supposed to happen. But they average guy walking down the street who gets a situation thrust upon him where he must defend himself, is not the same the same thing as an MMA match.
Sin Moo Hapkido has four distinct disciplines. #1: Joint Manipulation like you see in this video. Very handy for getting peoples hands off of you. #2: Ground Work. Less often seen in demonstration videos but similar to many ground forms like B.J.J . #3 Throwing techniques: Similar but different from Judo. A lot of throws may start with a joint manipulation. #4: Stand Up Fighting: Again, poorly represented in most of these videos, but a punch is a punch. Hapkido kicks, spin kicks is were it separates itself from other forms. For instance, Hapkido kicks resemble nothing like what you would see in Taekwondo or Karate. Hapkido has nasty little kicks like a blade foot to the shin, designed to break the leg at the shin bone. Or a High Knee, low kick designed to break the knee and give a person a bird leg, a knee snapped backward. Etc.
agreed. both MMA fighters are also highly trained. im 5-5, been training for many years. this stuff takes down the big bar room bully who picks the 5-5 guy to show off. it works well. many may diagree when i say train yourself to be preemptive. once he says "im gonna ...XXX" commit to defend yourself, MOVE NOW!!! dont try to start a relationship with him. strike and get away
You make a valid point. One I feel is accurate yet way over-looked. I've been teaching martial arts for 30 years now. While Kenpo is my main art I've done Jujitsu, Isshin-ryu, Shotokan, Boxing, TKD, and Shootfighting. I've competed in amateur MMA as well. I realized a long time ago that there is a big difference between fighting and self-defense. Most think of them as one in the same. A good fighter is not necessarily good at self-defense and vice versa. There is cross-over of course. If you are not successful with a wrist lock or other move against that bully he may square off with you. So it is important to keep your punching, kicking, and grappling skills honed as well. I think most do this with their fighting skills, but my experience is that few really understand what happens during a self-defense encounter. They walk through the motions. Someone says, 'Here is a self-defense against a grab,' then they show you, you practice it at maybe 50% power and speed. At that point you believe you have it down. In my opinion, if you learn a lock like this instructor is teaching be sure at some point to have the biggest, strongest guy in the room grab you and resist as hard as they can. I often find that what I think works walking through the technique does not when pressure and full force from an unwilling person is applied. At that point it is my job to figure out what to do different. I either change the technique, find a way to off center the person, add a strike, etc. If I am not confident that the strongest and toughest person cannot stop me then I'm not going to pass it off as a good technique to my students. Of course you have to have a willing instructor who will allow you to question what they teach. They must allow you to grab them hard and show you without simply destroying you. I find most instructors will not allow that because they know they cannot make the technique work against full resistance. If they are the type to scold you for asking questions, and they tell you that some day in 20 years or more you will be able to make things work, it is time to find another instructor....
i agree. i am 6ft and 325 pounds and one of my instructos was a little guy at 5ft and maybe 125 pounds and tossed me around like a rag doll. Yes it takes a lot of skill in many of these techniques but it is skill that seperates the men from the boys - the hobbyist from the martial artist.
Hapkido USA under Master Jino Kang combines the two into what he calls "Hapki-jutsu" - a fusion of the two styles. If you look up "Jino Kang - hapkido" on You Tube, there are videos of kang demonstrating this exciting new art.
first tech shown is a Kote Gaeshi with a judo type hip throw or Koshi Nage. second tech. is Shomen Ate. All the comments are talking about how it looks like MMA. Being both an MMA fighter (retired) and an Aikidoist MMA shouldn't even be mentioned but I do see how Aikido and Hapkido are similar. Reason : Hapkido founder and Aikido Founder had a connection. Techniques easily show this, even if you don't do a background check. Anyone who thinks this looks like the "cage" fighting mma style hasn't seen many cage fights.
This video is awesome; I studied this art many years ago. I like the way you have the videos broken down. Do you possibly have a segment on Double Tough Guy Grab? I can see you have thumbs up and thumbs down but the double grad set was my favorite and would love to review.
I am so tired of reading sooo many comments talk about a style in relation to mma as if mma is the ultimate test of martial arts efficiency and practicality. It is not. The street is. If you have a referi, you ain't proving much.
that's just absurd.... you act like "being on the street" changes things.. like skill, cardio, experience, and technique don't matter anymore because you can poke eyes and grab balls..... it doesn't... it doesn't change a thing... a skilled mma guy, meaning trained in bjj, muay thai or kick boxing, and wrestling... will beat the shit out any tma poser.... ANYWHERE.. streets, ring, living room...… you people who think there's a difference between a street fight and an mma fight... have never fought or sparred anyone. there is NO difference... at all.
Wow finally I found good stuffs. As a BJJ blue belt, I am seeking for something that give me ace in the sleeve. I tried to study on wrist lock, hand fight, grip fight, and as I have some experience in Aikido before, I am seeking for something that is more devastative, and that's it, Hapkido!
It actually does. Be quick and lever big guys out of their center of gravitiy and they will fly. Its about being quick and levering them out, even with your hips. Tried it myself, works pretty good on bigger guys as much as on heavier guys. And btw the guys in those vids jump becuase its jump to get out of the joint lever/lock or have the bone or joint broken. Believe me i've thrown guys two heads taller than myself this way.
Ji Han Jae was the president of the Korean Hapkido Association circa 1978. At least my 1st Dan certificate bears his name although I have not met him but one of his grand masters.
Actually, in response to the neck-snapping comments, most headthrow techniques in Hapkido are perfectly safe so long as you know what you are doing. I've been thrown by my neck many times, you'd only get injured if whoever is throwing you was not very skilled.
Hey people....this is a simple demonstration, not an outline on the entire form the martial art. Hapkido has stand up fighting techniques, ground techniques, throwing techniques, and yes....joint manipulation. For everyone who is stating that it's great for someone grabbing you with one arm, B.S.
Sin Moo Hapkido was designed for the short person. (not shown in this video) You watch the taller guys bend down to do throws. This is to get their hips, their center of gravity, below the person they are throwing. At first, a 140lbs person throwing a 260lbs person seems improbable. However, like with all martial arts practice improves that probability. (In this video) the person doing the locks isn't actually throwing anyone anywhere. Instead the one getting locked up is throwing themselves.
If you have watched judoka trying to off-balance one another for a throw or takedown, the principles are the same for hapkido, albeit different in approach. The successful hapkido practitioner off-balances his opponent preparatory to using the technique in question. This can be done in a variety of ways, but usually by taking his center - his base, or center-of-gravity. It can also be accomplished by getting the attacker to supply the energy himself, say with a strike or kick or rushing attack - energy that can be redirected and used against him.
yeah, nearly every lock in hapkido is not allowed in ufc because they consider wrist locks to be small joint manipulation, not to mention that many schools teach eye raking, finger locks, and pressure points. take someone trained to survive by any means and make them fight by your rules of course you will win but what happens when you take someone trained to fight by rules and face them against a true warrior, there are no bad martial arts just unskilled martial artists
the last one would snap a neck if done with full force.. dangerous.. my favourite was the first one though, because i know firsthand from doing aikido that if you dont flip, your wrist breaks so you have to flip, ive never seen the first technique but i like it
I practiced hapkido for about 2 years and I threw guys that had 10cm and 30 to 40 kilos on me. "Give me a point and I'll move the world" said Archimedes, it's the same principle applied to a combat technique, basic physics.
Interesting you should say that. Do you know who that guy was? He was the developer of Hapkido, Ji Han Jae, the man in the videos. Can't tell if you were being sarcastic in your comment or not.
MMA vs TMA shows a complete lack of understanding of either. But to say there are no bad martial arts is a lie. There are lots of completely fake bullshit martial arts out there.
popasmuerf. Dear dummy, MMA is not a style. There is no set " MMA " method.....so Hapkido techniques, any of them....are or can be used with any other martial arts. Therefore Hapkido can be used in any MMA [ mixed martial arts] It's not outside of " MMA "....it can be part of any MMA. And if a bully in a bar or whetever grabs you by the shirt to threaten you.....well, as soon as he grabs and starts to growl in your face, " I'll kick your ass motherf*****.....you can have him flat on the ground on his back using some of these Hapkido techniques.....before he even gets to the word " ....mother.... "
It is not the Martial Art that should be compared, it is how well the person who uses it has been trained in it and how to use it. Hope my grammar is OK.
well, you can always try the traditional style if you dont like this one, for me, its a bit more violent and straight, sometimes, the students get injuried the clavicle, during those types of techniques, and normally those are taller students,
That (Ji Han Jae) is not the Hapkido founder. He was long dead when the video was made. I don't know him, he might be the founder of a branch of Hapkido, see: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hapkido
so when you guys order your black belts, do you like, look up your correct size and then just order the longest one anyway? Holy Cow man that belt is like 2 sizes too long
@howard weitzellHonestly I'm thinking it's martial art dependent. In Judo we don't generally have more than 6 inches or so sticking out, and it looks like a bowtie
1:12 watch their left fist. A grab isn't no big deal cuz that's one hand you don't need to worry about, only their free hand is dangerous so just punch their chin in with a good stomp kick. I've done it alot in bar's.
@MrNwn007 If he does that you can: Knee him in the groin and watch how he cries and squirms or you can also add a nice head clinch with knee to the face, watch him with Clint Eastwood´s trademark disdain and say something like: PUNK! Or you could also peel away both of his thumbs and add a kick to the groin. It´s up to you :D
It isn't even a shoulder throw, lol. It's a wrist manipulation with a body turn to increase the torque. He either "throws" like that or there's a terrible, horrifying crack in his wrist. *facepalm* Please, study before you comment. He isn't "tossing" the student is doing that so he doesn't break his wrist lol.
The break-fall is to prevent injury to the person receiving the technique, no question. A break-fall is often the only way to "unwind" an effective lock, or at least prevent injury. Trust me - I know that to be true from hard-won experience!
the second instructor offering the elaboration of the technical aspects of the techniques tries too hard to generate power, while it makes for clean throws that look great on camera you can see him put himself way off balance
Except; you knew you were going to get thrown by your neck as opposed to an "attacker" which will most likely try to combat it and in turn snap his own neck.
Dude, breaking arms and snapping necks are two totally different things when someone is simply grabbing you. Try explaining to the judge and the person's family when you do a Steven Seagal mid-air neck snap.
One of the reasons arts like hapkido are so useful is that they offer a continuum of force, from simple restraints and holds which do no permanent damage but inflict pain as a means of control, through lethal techniques which kill when properly applied. In most places, one may use only that force which is required - not to kill, but to eliminate the threat. In this, the age of rampant lawsuits and scrutiny of use of force, having non-lethal methods on tap is highly-advantageous.
@MrNwn007 Come to think about it, you can do lots and lots of things to someone who does that to you. That way he has both of his hand busy while you have all your extremities free. Just beware the clasic instance where he pushes you with both hands but then pulls you back to give you a headbutt. So just to be safe KICK OR KNEE TO THE GROIN AND ELBOW DEFENSE YOUR FACE :) Be aware and try to stay away from trouble before anything else is needed,
@@11xr1east technique #2 will work for sure. Even if the takedown would fail, the open hand strike to the face will still do the job. The most practical and strait forward technique shown here
All of them work mate, all of these techniques are taught to police officers, securities, special oops or the army. This is self defense, it's made to work in real life. What you see in the videos is just the way to make them on the street. As an Hapkido student I can say it takes very long time to know a technic perfectly and do it with speed and power. If you want to know how Hapkido saved my life once I can tell you
Hapkido is more Judo, Aikido , Jujitsu and Hwang Do...I study TaeKwondo, Hapkido and just started Jujitsu....I have been told that Aikido and Hapkido are the same in most aspects. Besides Hapkido being from Korea and Aikido being from Japan..

Yes. Many hapkido dojangs teach combinations of strikes and kicks, focusing on vital areas, which can be applied on the ground.

yeah, nearly every lock in hapkido is not allowed in ufc because they consider wrist locks to be small joint manipulation, not to mention that many schools teach eye raking, finger locks, and pressure points. take someone trained to survive by any means and make them fight by your rules of course you will win but what happens when you take someone trained to fight by rules and face them against a true warrior, there are no bad martial arts just unskilled martial artists
How about just drive your thumbs into the guys eye sockets? Seems more direct and to the point...
There are many valid martial arts, many valid ways of accomplishing the same goal. The trick is to find the one which best-suits you.
I remember when they said Karate doesn't work in mma and lyoto machida proved everybody wrong.
No he didn’t! He knows all mma with karate. If he fought with only karate knowing nothing else he would have lasted ten seconds in a amateur bout!
That Frosty Ape Rob Whittaker trained in hapkido before he made the move to MMA.
Awesome techniques, like all:)
the last one would snap a neck if done with full force.. dangerous.. my favourite was the first one though, because i know firsthand from doing aikido that if you dont flip, your wrist breaks so you have to flip, ive never seen the first technique but i like it
I like It, I am 3 degre black belt karate and winchun ,and hapkido styles too.
I practiced hapkido for about 2 years and I threw guys that had 10cm and 30 to 40 kilos on me. "Give me a point and I'll move the world" said Archimedes, it's the same principle applied to a combat technique, basic physics.
Interesting you should say that. Do you know who that guy was? He was the developer of Hapkido, Ji Han Jae, the man in the videos.
Can't tell if you were being sarcastic in your comment or not.
Man...somethings have forgotten in 20 years. We called technique #2 the Chiropractor, because you could hear those getting demoed on back's cracking.
MMA vs TMA is getting old, both have their purpose. There is no bad martial art. Just bad teachers.
MMA vs TMA shows a complete lack of understanding of either. But to say there are no bad martial arts is a lie. There are lots of completely fake bullshit martial arts out there.
people who say hapkido does not work in a real fight do not know what they are talking about and have too much UFC in thier tiny peanut of a brain.
@popasmuerf 🤣👍
Hapkido throws work...they work on idiots but hey,that counts too right?🤣
popasmuerf. Dear dummy, MMA is not a style. There is no set " MMA " method.....so Hapkido techniques, any of them....are or can be used with any other martial arts. Therefore Hapkido can be used in any MMA [ mixed martial arts] It's not outside of " MMA "....it can be part of any MMA. And if a bully in a bar or whetever grabs you by the shirt to threaten you.....well, as soon as he grabs and starts to growl in your face, " I'll kick your ass motherf*****.....you can have him flat on the ground on his back using some of these Hapkido techniques.....before he even gets to the word " ....mother.... "
It is not the Martial Art that should be compared, it is how well the person who uses it has been trained in it and how to use it. Hope my grammar is OK.
I'm sufficiently impressed.
i love technique #2 lol. just step through their center of gravity! has a little hint of wing chun in there :)
well, you can always try the traditional style if you dont like this one, for me, its a bit more violent and straight, sometimes, the students get injuried the clavicle, during those types of techniques, and normally those are taller students,
I like Hapkido techniques Love❤ from India🇮🇳.
Excelente técnica y el Gran master Ji Han saludos
Esses vídeos são ótimos para para meus estudos...sou praticante do Sin Moo Hapkido aqui no Brasil, meu mestre é um dos alunos do dojunin Ji Han Jae
That (Ji Han Jae) is not the Hapkido founder. He was long dead when the video was made. I don't know him, he might be the founder of a branch of Hapkido, see: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hapkido
Question. Where do you get the gray colored uniforms?
I can't seem to find them.
Thanks
Great job! Hand placement should be more natural for smoother results.
That face at 03:25 is priceless haha
My teacher also stated the HAPKIDO is AIKIDO’s dirty little street fighter
I believe those are Sin Moo Hap Ki Do uniforms. I could be wrong. But you would have to seek out that school and join it to earn that uniform sir.
This dude needs to start paying more attention. The first technique is not uchi mata
2:43 try lifting your elbow following the arch of the chin jab- i think you will find that helpful.- osu
He is. HIm and Bruce Lee trained together.
Scorpion in Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance used this fighting style couple with Pi Gua, That shit is so gangsta Hands Down the illest!!
North as well as South Korean Speciel Operations forces use a combined Hapkido/Taekwondo mix
so when you guys order your black belts, do you like, look up your correct size and then just order the longest one anyway? Holy Cow man that belt is like 2 sizes too long
@howard weitzellHonestly I'm thinking it's martial art dependent. In Judo we don't generally have more than 6 inches or so sticking out, and it looks like a bowtie
@howard weitzell i've noticed too that the korean arts seem to have what i'd consider overly long belts in general, so it's likely cultural.
guess other hand is not working? attack with one hand ? if appointment is so close to u he will use the other hand to defend.
Still works. That's all that matters. Better to over-do it than under-do it.
1:12 watch their left fist. A grab isn't no big deal cuz that's one hand you don't need to worry about, only their free hand is dangerous so just punch their chin in with a good stomp kick. I've done it alot in bar's.
She's Happens to be a 2nd Degree with this art.
smaller you are, the lower your center of gravity meaning it's actually easier to throw a bigger person over you
Ji is one bad-ass! I earned a blkblt from an 8th Dan under him. "Pain is a great motivator" I remember him saying.
My black belt certifiact was signed by Grand Master Ji Han Jae and had dinner with him. How is he and where is he?
@MrNwn007 If he does that you can: Knee him in the groin and watch how he cries and squirms or you can also add a nice head clinch with knee to the face, watch him with Clint Eastwood´s trademark disdain and say something like: PUNK!
Or you could also peel away both of his thumbs and add a kick to the groin. It´s up to you :D
if someone grabs you like that then he is using one hand and limiting his other and you can use both hands to damage him twice as much.
Awesome techniques. Those are some long belts guys! You could strangle your opponents with all that length 😛
They use their belts for choking in Hapkido.
I am fairly certain that anyone that has grabbed your clothing isn't going to let go so easily and is likely to pull you down with them.
Hapkido has a solution for that too....
It isn't even a shoulder throw, lol. It's a wrist manipulation with a body turn to increase the torque. He either "throws" like that or there's a terrible, horrifying crack in his wrist. *facepalm* Please, study before you comment. He isn't "tossing" the student is doing that so he doesn't break his wrist lol.
The break-fall is to prevent injury to the person receiving the technique, no question. A break-fall is often the only way to "unwind" an effective lock, or at least prevent injury. Trust me - I know that to be true from hard-won experience!
I use it in jiujitsu tourney went great osss!!!
le fort reste le fort.merci
Grey gi! Classy!
красотища, Большое Спасибо
I like that gray gi
Do they make you yell in traditional Hapkido schools?
Yes, called gihap!
the second instructor offering the elaboration of the technical aspects of the techniques tries too hard to generate power, while it makes for clean throws that look great on camera you can see him put himself way off balance
Agreed, that guy should not be emulated. He always overextends and places himself in a vulnerable position.
Pray an act of perfect contrition everyday
The student screws it all up. The grand master shows the technique is like an arm drag
what if he grabs you with both hands?
What about if he hook you when you grab his thumb
He looks like the guy from Game of Death. The second opponent Bruce faced.
It's him - they are one and the same.
Except; you knew you were going to get thrown by your neck as opposed to an "attacker" which will most likely try to combat it and in turn snap his own neck.
He talks the same way in the Game Of Death.
Dude, breaking arms and snapping necks are two totally different things when someone is simply grabbing you. Try explaining to the judge and the person's family when you do a Steven Seagal mid-air neck snap.
One of the reasons arts like hapkido are so useful is that they offer a continuum of force, from simple restraints and holds which do no permanent damage but inflict pain as a means of control, through lethal techniques which kill when properly applied. In most places, one may use only that force which is required - not to kill, but to eliminate the threat. In this, the age of rampant lawsuits and scrutiny of use of force, having non-lethal methods on tap is highly-advantageous.
@MrNwn007 Come to think about it, you can do lots and lots of things to someone who does that to you. That way he has both of his hand busy while you have all your extremities free. Just beware the clasic instance where he pushes you with both hands but then pulls you back to give you a headbutt.
So just to be safe KICK OR KNEE TO THE GROIN AND ELBOW DEFENSE YOUR FACE :)
Be aware and try to stay away from trouble before anything else is needed,
Tuyet voi
en cámara lenta todos vemos rapido!!!
기가 차네요 굿~~~
cok beyendigim ve gitmek istedigim bi savunma sanatı ama malesef kastamonuda yok gidemiyorum ama ögrenmeyi çok isterdim
The old guys is the guy who fought Bruce lee in game of death with the white gi. Bruce broke his back then Akeem was next.
Good
Very good , very Judo like .
will the techniques work in a real street fight??
Wow after 4 years I didn't get not one response. Either this is non productive in street fighting or nobody know.
@@11xr1east technique #2 will work for sure. Even if the takedown would fail, the open hand strike to the face will still do the job. The most practical and strait forward technique shown here
All of them work mate, all of these techniques are taught to police officers, securities, special oops or the army. This is self defense, it's made to work in real life. What you see in the videos is just the way to make them on the street. As an Hapkido student I can say it takes very long time to know a technic perfectly and do it with speed and power. If you want to know how Hapkido saved my life once I can tell you
super
Ji Han Jae ❤️
Ankarada kore savaş sanati olan hapkido savaş sanatinin tek ustadi master sadık şahin
i bet these students are a group of lieutenants in the army
I love haters they make soo much sence.....Of course the created Hapkido....Pride? You must be from Japan....
Hapkido is more Judo, Aikido , Jujitsu and Hwang Do...I study TaeKwondo, Hapkido and just started Jujitsu....I have been told that Aikido and Hapkido are the same in most aspects. Besides Hapkido being from Korea and Aikido being from Japan..
woah he spanked the master! 3:09
