  2. Able to speak basic Korean, numbers, greetings etc.
  3. Maintain my attendance regular
  4. Get more involved with the sparring classes
  5. Muscle memory cross hands techniques.
  6. Keep learning

I wish you luck. I just hope to get back into practicing myself. I haven't been active in Hapkido for quite some time. I had some health issues for a while and then my GM passed. But I would like to think I can keep up some skills anyway.

My goal for Hapkido in 2015 are:

1. Learn more about the art as it was taught by Choi Dojunim. This may be easier said than done without easy access to students in direct lineage and the lack of readily available written works.

2. Help spread the art to others through showing and training techniques with other martial artists at my current club (a very eclectic group of open minded martial artists and fighters).

More cardio for me this year. I am thinking the pool is the place to go.

Otherwise just keep building my program and refining it for my folks.

Cardio is a big one for me as well, I'm a mess after about 40 break falls and rolls in a row.

I've started jogging to build up my cardio since I have a treadmill, swimming sounds like a good option as well.

My 2015 progress had halted unfortunately. I've taken a new role at work so my hours have changed and can no longer make it to training.

You should be able to keep up some kind of cardio. That is good for overall health, as well as keeping you in shape for when you can get back in to Hapkido. In the meantime, keep meditating on meditating and while doing so, going through all techniques.

Jes,

If you could find an uke that is off and available when you are, you could continue to practice hapkido on your own outside of your class.

I just switch over to a new TKD/Hapkido school and as far as my goals are, I'm just excited to be learning new stuff, so I'm just looking to learn and improve anything that my instructor teaches me.

Yeah, think will focus on fitness\cardio, have a gym at work I'll start making use of. And see if I can get other MAist's at work to get on the mat in the early hours before starting the day.
