[@peterslater3950]

I like to thank the club instructors for involving lots of EXCELLENT lower graded people !! It was a pleasure to see such great attitude and commitment ...

[@georgekondylis6723]

Hapkido done correctly is effective. It depends on the teacher and the training realism. There needs to be realistic self defense drills against resisting opponents as well as good free sparring and wrestling. I dig the rolling omo platas.

[@febiardianto5029]

I like how when someone hits a arm bar the opponent is like I’m dead

[@henriquearthur7451]

So many all mighty specialists came here only to criticize the video... It's a well-done performance, though. Some things could be used in combat sports if properly trained under resistance, and some couldn't (that's quite obvious and natural). There is no need to undermine their work on account of that. It's a nice job. Congrats

[@cagedraptor]

I didn't come here to criticize. I guess I could just keep my views to myself and move on. The other side of the coin is if I see something that I am sure isn't real or workable in real life I feel I should speak up about it. I do a channel as well and I understand that criticizing for the fun of it isn't really ok but criticizing to help should be accepted. If it isn't then it isn't those that criticize that really has the issue it is those that can't take a close and real look at what they are doing and accept that just maybe it isn't practical or the best thing. And again, me included, we all think were right and others are wrong. The best thing is that your right for you and I'm right for me.

[@music-wd2yq]

better to be criticized early than getting busted in a real fight later on.

[@mervinmarias9283]

People don't seem to understand that everything will be revealed in actual sparring. There's no need to be no keyboard warrior. You don't like something, try it out in sparring or have someone try it on you. It will either work or it won't. At least you can then speak from experience. Now you dissing people on the net based on the voice in your head.

Ich finde Hapkido sehr gut in Bezug auf meinen Bewegungsdrang. Im Straßenkarte empfand ich es nicht immer als wirksam. Des öfteren ist es sehr schwierig, einen Hebel beim Gegner anzusetzen. Und, um den Gegner vorher mit einem Schlag zu "lockern "ist es auch nicht immer gut bestellt. So mancher Straßenkämpfer hat unerwartete Nehmerqualitäten. Aber trotzdem ein höchst interessantes Selbstverteidigungssystem. Es hat mir über viele Jahre sehr viel Spaß gemacht.

[@renatobiasiato6237]

Apkido e fenomenale?

[@instanttherapy]

Very good video. I wish I had taken Hapkido or Kenpo instead of Kyokushin. There was no versatility in my art. Hapkido has the fastest feet and Kenpo has the fastest hands. Remember, when watching these, that everything that hits hurts. And, from experience, I can tell you that the bad guys have NO martial art experience, they're just extra tense from all the crack they ingested. They won't stand there and loosely point a gun at you. They'll be moving around super tense, or they'll rush you with a right cross, or they'll blitz attack you when you walk around the corner of a building without enough room for fight or flight, or when you look down at your keys, look away from them coming towards you, or think it'll never happen to you. Regardless, all martial arts, except Aikido, condition the body to take more punishment than they need to give out. There just isn't enough space in any one particular video to convince all you looky loo know it alls to understand that.

This is perfect the same of Jiujitsu (JJJ move) with some modern karate movements. It is not related Taekkyeon or anything korean things in it. Someone Can you pls try to explain which part of this is "Korean tradition" and not a jiujitsu? Also one more things additional. Basically movement of AIKI JIUJITSU and MODERN JAPANESE JIUJITSU (like in this video) is different. So you can not say excuse "hapkido is from aiki jiujitsu." They are just took movement of modern Japanese jiujitsu and saying it is Korean hapkido or so, clearly. Can you try to counter argue that?

Just under every hapkido video there is this comments about how the students suck, how they would get beaten in a street fight etc. Of course the technics should be accurate but if you are So concerned with this, write advices on which technics they should practice and improve. At least you wouldn't discourage kids and be helpful a little bit. And This is a martial art. Its only goal is not to make you unbeatable in street fights. It's a discipline and it has a philosophy. They should improve but just constantly doing sport and learn the philosophy of it must be apreciated too.

[@Qitrainer]

I agree with you for yellow belts up they do a good job and it is lot work and a lot of pain. You get thrown or throw someone its hard work and you only get better from there on for they can do movement. Look at Black belts flow is the real difference for it is more natural. Hapkido is about being natural in movement that why the water principle is key to have good movement in Hapkido and its hard to master. My suggestion is they have the basic movement technique now make it flow like water through practice. Good comment.

If I was a woman and I had to fight off a guy, I think I would want to teach him a good lesson. Not just enough to get away and make him find someone else, but maybe more like something that the cops wouldn't have trouble finding at the hospital. Or maybe even worse, that's going to slow him down quite a bit the next time he tries that with someone else. I don't think you would be looked at as being in the "wrong" for something like that, but still what you do must be legally allowed in your city and state.

So, hit and run would be my advice; either that or make sure you slow somebody down enough with that first technique so that you can get away with further strikes. I would like to see someone who finds themself needing to fight back to use enough force to keep a perpetrator from just finding a more vunereble target, if the law in your area allows it.

Do not count on that with Hapkido. Wrestlers have rules in Hapkido it does not. Their base goal is to eliminate the opponent in 4 seconds or short like a second. When you see real Hapkido attacks it is a second and half and person may not get get up for its choice by the Hapkido person if he does.

Keller Smith - This comment is wrong in so many respects. Hapkido came from Daito Ryu Aiki Ju Jutsu, then came under various influences in Korea, it is certainly not Korean Karate. Hwa Rang Do was founded after Joo Bang Lee studied under the Hapkido founder, unless you credit the "unknown monk in the mountains story". Tae Kwon Do, Tang Soo Do and Kong Soo Do were all Japanese Karate and evolved from there. Hope this helps.

[@peterslater3950]

NO CHANCE !!! Hapkido is not related to Taekwondo !! Hapkido is like JuJutsu but is it so ?? It is not right for me to say so because Hapkido and JuJutsu are different defensive styles YES YES lots of defensive style share similiar pattern but like Karate which has 4 main styles but they all have different directions like HKD does ... Some people suggest that Taekwondo and TangSooDo are basically the same which is utter nonsense because Taekwondo has "evolved" but yet both styles do have similar pattern, however Taekwondo is so powerful has as an arsenal of kicks and jumps but Hapkido has the opposite, locks, throws ... Tang Soo Do has a rather 50 / 50 range of defense but am I right to say so ?? Is it disrespectful to judge different styles ?? Yes it is, however I have done Tang Soo Do and Taekwondo for many years !! Taekwondo is an absolute attacking, counter attacking style and enjoy sparring on the other hand TangSooDo has other targets in regards to self defense which I also enjoy ... Hapkido offers a great range of self defense and this video clip make sure Hapikido isn't a "Mickey Mouse Style" !! In close range a Taekwondo practitioner will not escape locks and throws from HapKiDo practitioners, no way but then a Hapkido practitoners may not be quick enough to escape an arsenal of kicks ... You see in "open free style tournaments" most times Taekwondo practitioners are the winner with Kick Boxers together but in grappling / westling championships a Taekwondo practitioners will be the first one to kiss the floor and to be knocked out because I must know because I have been there > Sometimes you win and sometimes you learn < AND before I forget "SWEEPING" is not allowed in Taekwondo when you do sparring or in tournaments you will be repremanded and disqualified x
