| Hapkido Hapkido combines joint locks, pressure points, throws, kicks, and strikes for practical self-defense. More soft than hard and more internal than external, but elements of each are included. Emphasizes circular motion, non-resistive movements, and control of the opponent. |

Re: HKD in Australia?
This is the same response I have gotten in the past on other threads, ahhh Australia a wonderful place to live but the communication in our MA community is a little lacking. Can’t have everything I suppose!

Re: HKD in Australia?
Hi Spu and all
I train in Bendigo Victoria with Hosinsul Korean Hapkido, our Kwangjanim Mr Nigal May hold a 5th dan in Hapkido, high ranks in Taekwondo as well as intructor level belts in Mu Sul Ssam Do. Only a small school, been going since 99, but is gradually growing in size, with a large group of young students coming up through the ranks and as age permits joining the senoirs. I myself am only a beginer 8 months about to go for my blue belt. But it would seem that Melbourne has many Hapkido clubs as well. We are member of the World Kido Federation and the World Hapkido Association as well. Although I have nothing to compare our instructors with as I have not been to another dojang, I beleive they are good at what they teach very strict on techneque and a great buch to train with. |
