Differences in the Arts

[terryl965]

terry1965, how did the instructional meeting with Mr McClain go? I know you posted something about the meeting, but I was wondering if you could go into a little more detail on what you and your students experienced and if you have any plans on possibly adapting anything into your current curriculum.

Master McLain had some great stuff and is a wonderful gentleman, I'm even considering taken some classes from him, he is that good. he mainly did some Forms and alot of SD techs. and the best part is his teaching methods. They are crisp and to the point for everyone to follow.

I don't think I could classify Hapkido as being circular or linear because it has elements of both


I made a remakr to my new teacher about the circular versus linear motions of Hapkido vs Taekwondo and he came back with an analogy of a wheel that has a circle with linear spokes...they work together.
