    Is Karate a martial art? (please read full post)

    Is Karate a martial art, or just a name for martial arts of certain origin? I ask the same question of Taekwondo, Jiujitsu, Akido, or any other name that encompasses multiple styles of fighting. When you say "I practice Taekwondo" or "I practice Hapkido", what are you really saying?

    Anybody trained or is training with Hwang In Shik?

    Until I was about 14, I trained with Hwang In Shik and some of his apprentices for about 3 years. I moved, so I didn't train with him ever since. Has anybody recently trained or is training with Hwang In Shik? I'm interested to know what's going on.
