  • Am I correct in assuming that Hapkido combines Karate with Judo and Aikido? Furthermore up until now I believed Hapkido to be a japanese MA... so far I've only watched two videos, but in both the performers of the Art were Korean, so is it correct to assume that it's from Korea? (Let's get into the 'All-arts-steal-from-one-anoth­er' debatte, just tell me if it's supposed to be korean or not). Thank you in advance.

  • @MrScreamingSilence --- Um I got told it was a combination of Aikido, Jujitsu and Judo. I could be wrong,

  • @MrScreamingSilence Japanese martial arts have an impact on Hapkido. The creator hapkido trained under the same master, as the creator of Aikido. I would add to your list of taekwondo. Taekwondo is similar to karate. There are a few differences.

  • Patrick Smith from UFC 2 had hapkido in his arsenal... And it worked up until he lost to Royce Gracie.

  • Every technique has it's use in certain situations, but not in all. You wouldn't try to use tomenaki spelling? (sacrifice throw) in a room crowded with people and tables and chairs. Experience, training, etc. helps you to learn what can be used where and which technique is for which situation. The best MA weapon is your mind!

  • @MCKicker357 true, I only have that experience to go by.

  • @MCKicker357 I don't know, dude. I suspect a lot of these Asian Martial Arts are fraudulent. I took a Taekwondo class one time and noticed the instructor had everyone there hypnotized. He convinced them that the pressure points he was demonstrating would put a man to his knees and he went down his row of students trying it out. Worked on everyone except me. I faked pain after 20 secs just to not embarrass him. I imagine movies play a huge role in convincing people this stuff works.

  • @MikesMethods asian martial arts are not fraudulent but some of the schools in america are

    and they are actually hurting their partner thats how they train

  • @MikesMethods I have experience and sometimes it won't work on some people, everyone is not built exactly the same. (Mind, body and pain responses are different) It is different when you know it is coming than not. It is sometimes difficult to do on people pumped up, drugged or drunk. This why you practice. There are some techniques that will work no matter what...throat strike, temple, solar plexus, groin, eyes. There are other reasons that may have blocked a response from you as well.

  • @Durkie52 Well, yeah, I'm sure if you hit anyone hard in the throat or solar plexus they'll be out of the game. I was referring to points in odd places like your wrist or under the arm. All Asian MAs use a pressure point chart. Even if it did work it still might not be practical to use them in a fight where someone is trying to kill you knowing it might fail. Nowadays its probably smarter to be trained in the use of firearms since criminals are often armed themselves and work in numbers.

  • @MikesMethods One learns which techniques are to be used in which situations. Just as you would not break someone's arm or a chop to the throat for just being a butt. You wouldn't use a moderate technique for a serious attack. They are all not just for disabling as they are sometimes used as a diversion for another attack. To lengthy to go into more details.

  • @Durkie52 Its definitely a good idea to learn some kind of martial art. I was curious about this one because they got a class here in town. Just skeptical of it and have practical reasons for joining. To me it won't be a sport but another tool in the arsenal.

  • SPEED VS. WEIGHT

  • R.I.P Headphone Users

  • I no this is hapkido but im in taekwondo im embarrased of making mistakes and making noise how can I fix this?

  • Great vid, one of the few that actually shows the short stick techniques for a change! Thanx for uploading!

  • I have been doing this for about a year now. It is a great MA but it is hard to find really good schools . A lot of Tkd people shy away from it because it does indeed get painful at times. The moves here are of course exaggerated but most of the flipping is necessary to keep from actually breaking bones. You spend a good deal of time falling and jumping targets.

  • Can't you people tell these guys willingly jump to make it seem like they are thrown?

  • 0:44 looks like air humpin

  • yeah I know korean hahahahahaha

  • this stuff doesn't exsist in MMA this is the real stuff

  • @arcaneclark - the way you say it, you make it sound that if you attain a mid-level rank in Hapkido, you'll know everything in Aikido, and that's definitely not correct. I study both arts, and both have their strong points. Hapkido is definitely a more aggressive art, whereas Aikido is more harmonious. Both are excellent, but I always recommend studying different arts and take from them those techniques you feel most comfortable using to defend yourself.

  • OMG^2

    Please can someone start a Hapkido school in Bristol UK

  • @DocMolotov You could try Kuk Sool Won. It's not too dissimilar, and does have a school in Bristol afaik.

  • My son just started in March, his Master King is amazing and all the kids who have taken, some are black belts, are well mannered and good kids so he is teaching them right. Amazing martial art.

  • Who sees and does not know think it's a lie but it's not!! the important thing is to finish and finally, the total neutrality that only fellow hapkido have.Earned

    삶이 세계 이동하고 순환되기 때문에 무술, 움직이 .....

  • Jorago27 글쎄요? 비웃기 안을까요?

  • Is it professional wrestling what this is?

    Is it a kung fu movie?

    When it is compared the aikido with this, is the world annoyed as well as Japan?

    Korea opens such an article in the world and is not ashamed?

    Please do not experience martial arts.

  • @koisan1000

    hello i think you asked how is this compared to aikido, Hapkido, is very devastating, aikido is the first 3 belts of hapkido.

  • 6:05 is he dancing???? :D

  • 우리의 전통무에라고 말한다면 합기도라는 명칭을 쓰면 않된다고 봅니다 일본도 合気道라고 하는데 일본애들이 비웃지 않을까요?

  • Wow Watching this made my bones and joints ache...

  • OOOOOOOO SHIIT 3:02

  • fake ass chink crap give me a Glock n cap em all

  • @pdogger1 ...whoa, calm. guns take no skill and no discipline, and the only character you build is being a pussy. if you pull a gun on someone without one than you have no honor nor pride.

    peace.

  • @TheTaekicker True, but the only excuse is war.

  • @TheTaekicker Some people just dont have any pride or honor.

  • @TheTaekicker "no skill and discipline" Guns DO take a lot of skill and discipline. To put rounds on target from a distance is very difficult and discipline ensures you don't kill yourself or others. In the hands of someone who knows what they are doing, a gun is the last thing you want to see. I practice hapkido, but I also shoot guns. Before you attack me I didn't insult your intelligence like you did the other guy. If you do, then you only make yourself look dumb

  • @pdogger1 give you a sausage an stick it up your arse

  • "Look at these guys, you have to be out of your mind if you think they are actually flipping these people themselves on most of these maneuvers." The person being "thrown" is actually doing what is called a break-fall, a way of rolling out of the lock or throw. Trust me, hapkido works - if you didn't "throw yourself," your joint or limb would break or be damaged, very painfully I might add. HKD is taught to special operations forces; they would not use it if it didn't work.

  • alkuperäistä taekwondoa terveisiä kaikille lajin osaamisesta

  • @hakkeri1000 Hei ja tervehdys minun suomalaisia ystäviä

    

  • the choice of music is just a little but off imo

  • 3:40 unnecessary grunts

  • cant believe i got a blackbelt in this -still like a dream i've met a couple of the guys in the video before ,of course they are much older now but aren't any less deadly

  • piece of shit fuck TWD

  • These Asian guys sure do flop around alot. I love it!!

  • hey i am doing hapkido for 1,5 years right now and i am blue belt when i am black belt i maybe want to go to korea for 1 or 2 years to train there any1 know if thats even possible?

  • @infinitey1

    of course Its possible. If you can afford to travel and support yourself "the world is your oyster". One way you could easily do it if you are not uncommonly wealthy would be to get a job teaching english to pay for your stay.

  • @infinitey1

    No ! It is not possible . However if you send me only $ 1000 I will make sure that it becomes possible by doing voodoo dance around bonfire naked .

  • @infinitey1 well i guess its possible. but the only ones who could go to korea were the red belt ones. but who knows lol.

  • @infinitey1: One of my HKD instructors is an army veteran who learned HKD in S. Korea while stationed there in the army. He says the training there is very tough compared to most U.S. schools.

  • someones really fake

  • 3:35 is my favorite, if you can do that in a real fight you should instantly be crowned king of the universe.

  • @Stretedge hahahhaa

  • If anyone can find me a better ALLROUND martial arts style,then please,let me know.Until then,I`ll stick with Hapkido.

  • It looks and sounds like one of these cheap chinese kung fu movies. If this is one of the best hapkido videos, I think I will not loose my time looking for other material.

  • AGHGH THAT IS LOUD.

  • won't work in South Chicago....

  • i really want to see this in a real figth this its so false

  • i see fat people invent that

  • Hapkido = my favorite martial art. 9 years in training and loving

  • Hapkido is an amazeing art, but all the arts have there place and purpose and slants. Like Judo, Hapkido is best suited for a large person. B. Jujitsu was developed to equal the playing field between the larger and smaller people. In the end, all arts are the same--the body only moves in so many ways, and if you study long enough in any art, you learn almost everything.

  • 6:58 ...i feel as though you may accidentally kill your practice partner if you mess this up in the slightest...

  • Watching this makes me proud to say I practice Hapkido

  • Hen hao,kourjo-guo-ren-men! tong-xuemen!

  • this guys can't go agianst Cro cop or Vanderlei silva punches

  • Hapkido rules!!

  • One of the best martial arts ever !!

  • best martial arts demo ever.

  • ahhh :D this video brings good memories my left pelvis hurts seeing this lol hapkido is fun and very easy to learn.

  • @DoctorPillowThief I think Hapkido Hurts but its Fun :D

  • dats gonna teach ppl not to go against a master.

  • @mavin174

    Well, fuck you from Norway...

  • @ImIwilliamImI  hahahaa

  • @mavin174 why dont you go fuck yourself.... or is that too hard for you too????

  • LOL omg this is so bad....Look at these guys, you have to be out of your mind if you think they are actually flipping these people themselves on most of these maneuvers. Dont get me wrong, I respect Hapkido, but this demonstration is BS

  • @vvbn7890 they only flip to stop the limbs breaking mate. cant train if you break all of your partners.

  • @vvbn7890 obivously you havent had you limbs twisted very hard.. at a certain point your body will flip to save itself from tearing your limbs... thats why in many martial arts you see ppl flip, its a natural instinct.

  • @vvbn7890 if they didnt flip, their wrist would hurt and i think that forces them to flip over.

  • @Asianbag4 Yeah basically it's a matter of force. After a curtain point the limbs reach a point the cannot with stand and if the person does not flip he are she will get a broken bone. you flip sometime's in the ma cause if you don't you get a broken limb.

  • mt bom hapkido!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • WONDERFULL!!!

  • right I was tossing up between brazillian ju jitsu and another art, and this one seems far more practical for actual self defense than the afore mentioned....I don't really want to go to the ground so much against 3 guys...2 f which would kick the shit out of me while I'm grappling with another thug.

  • @AtBunkergateSeven Going to the ground deliberately doesn't have to be what you do, but aside from the overanalytical MMA philosophy, ground fights can happen to you. Don't fear that learning one thing means committing to only it. Martial arts is like music; every sequence has a rhythm, every music genre can it does its own thing well, but a true musician believes "music is music". Get to know all you love, learn and try the rest. Hapkido and Systema together.

  • @AtBunkergateSeven

    That's a very good point, all martial arts have good and bad things, but you can only compare fighters

  • @AtBunkergateSeven If you want to study this kind of Hap Ki Do in america you might have a hard time. But at least go to a school where the focus is on the actual philosophy of Hap Ki Do rather than high kicks and dramatic tumbling.

  • @SamuraiTankyuusha

    America actually has some excellent Hapkido, it's Korea where you need to worry about only being taught Tae kwon do kicks with a few wrist locks thrown in here and there

  • @AtBunkergateSeven brazillian jui jitsu has nothing on this

  • @AtBunkergateSeven yeah do Hap Ki Do its a Korean art, all their arts are good, if you're near Raleigh, NC; check out Chang's Martial Art and Ballet.

  • @AtBunkergateSeven

    hapkido is a great art fr self defence and one on one combat. how about try JAPANESE JUJUTSU? its similiar but JAP jujutsu also has ground fighitng so even ever ur fyt end up in the ground ur not ignorant?? JAP jujutsu has strike(fist,elbow,knee n feet) has throws like judo and ground frighitng aswell, and joint manipulation like aikido or hapkido

  • @AtBunkergateSeven stick with this or try chen taiji only if you can find a good teacher, hapkido is very good, and train not to go to the ground mate

  • @AtBunkergateSeven Jiu Jitsu isn't just ground grappling called newaza, they have many standing techniques too. It's everything. If you're up against 3 guys, nothing is going to help you except Parkour.

  • @AudienceKiller66 there are martial arts that help you fight 5 guys at once

  • @ofomatheblackbelt help, but don't succeed. I know Krav Maga teaches those kinds of things but still, none of it works. Unless you can drop every guy with one hit, assuming you can actually land a hit. Then there is no way you could ever fight 5 guys at once.

  • @AudienceKiller66 yes they do succeed if you open your mind and get your head out of your butt you'd be amazed at you could accomplish

  • @ofomatheblackbelt haha whatever you say grandmaster.

  • @AtBunkergateSeven if u do fast takedown on conkerat then hear punch to the neck then stand up and put one in wrest lock u won the fight .

  • @AtBunkergateSeven Iam a Fan of hapkido as well, i study it in a casual sense. if you want a Really practical art for self defense though, you can't beat either Silat or Krav Maga, I study kali, silat, JKD and add elements of Jujitsu and judo and hapkido as well as Muay thai, krabi krabong, and boxing. it's all about personal research and personal truth in the realm of fighting

  • It CAN be practical, but ideally 'practical' employs simpler reflexive movements. Krav Maga and running away are outstanding forms of self defense. Hapkido looks amazing in exhibitions where the old fattie makes sure his students know to 'fall' correctly and scream, but it's much harder than it appears. Anything can be done with much practice though. :)

  • @ComfortablyMuffin: Krav Maga's founder, Imre "Imi" Lichtenfeld, incorporated many techniques from hapkido into his system. Hapkido is very effective in the real world; do not confuse "demonstration" martial arts with the real thing. John Pellegrini's Combat Hapkido is taught around the world to police, military and security personnel. The S. Korean presidential guard all know the art. HKD is also among the martial arts most favored by U.S. special operations personnel.

  • @GeorgiaBoy1961 Interesting. Can you cite these sources for me? I am interested in reading about my old SEAL team learning hapkido.

  • @AtBunkergateSeven No Martial Art can prepare you for fighting 3 persons at once but BJJ is highly effective against one attacker as all street fights quickly end up in grappling!

  • @AtBunkergateSeven: Learn both HKD and BJJ; they compliment one another well. Jino Kang, out of San Francisco, one of the highest ranked International Hapkido Federation HKD masters in the U.S., is also proficient in BJJ. Another HKD master is Steve Sexton; he has lots of clips on YT and a very good DVD for sale also, on HKD. Sexton has been there, done that over many years in security work, facing armed assailants, mutiple attackers, you name it - with HKD. He's the real deal.

  • @AtBunkergateSeven i was in the same position! started hapkido 2 weeks ago and i love it.

  • @AtBunkergateSeven kravmaga if u can get it where u live that is what u r looking for. Its like this but totally tatical

  • Hapkido has joint locks that aikido don't have

  • @moxygen2 so what aikido has joint locks that hapkido doesnt haVe

  • wow. they are like fluid when they move.

  • the sound is a very effective selfdefense.

    It makes you run away immediately ;-)

  • a friend of mine done 1 of these.. boy does it hurt

  • this is SO FUCKING SIC!

  • 6:50 is rediculously awsome.

  • 3:02

    OMFGGGGG!!!!!!

  • @kenzzos - woot!

  • yep hapkido and aikido originated from daitou ryu aikijujitsu thats why there's so much similarity between them but hapkido have many more strikes than aikido.

  • bolo would beat the crap outtha this dude.

  • totally.

  • jjjjjjjjjjjjjjk

  • Excellent video, amazing skills.

  • the music and sounds are creepy as hell, but the techniques are incredible

  • like this, good overview of Hapkdo

  • Good...

  • This video makes hapkido seem kind of creepy.

  • hapkido it's a exaggerated martial arts technics.. in aikido i see all that technics more perfectionated and not than exaggerated moves..

  • Hapkido and Aikido both came from Daitou-ryu Aikijujitsu.

  • this is correct. the daito ryu headquarters has evidence of this.

  • practice Aikido!

  • hap kido is diferent and harder to practise, i rather chose hap ki do than ai ki do (actually i'm doing taekwondo)

  • Aikido is for girls (and steven segal xD)

    With aikido the enemy learn a lesson

    With hapkido the enemy learn a lesson and never try again

  • excellent, I want to learn this Hapkido. My friend did his training few years ago, he recommended to me but didn't have time.

  • Also, is there a name for the cane techniques he's using from 4:32 - 5:06? It looks similar to jo dori, but I've never anything with any stick shorter than a jo.

  • Ji Pang-Ee Sool

    I know it's taught in Kuk Sool Won, which is closely related to Hapkido (same base instructors back in the 60's).

  • Does anyone know what that kick-grapple move is at 3:35?

  • Wow 3:00~3:10

  • 5 stars

  • Hapkido rules.

  • its korean

  • thanks 4 teling lol...and y r ppl thumbing down my comment? im not stating anything im only asking a question lol

  • Nice

  • i use it...just lately!

  • 6:55 is awesome :)

  • yeah that was pretty painful

  • scorpion does hapkido

  • haha so true

  • Its in japan you can kiss me later when i tell u exactly where

  • where is that place! i wanna go there. someone tell me. in english. and ill kiss you.

  • 漢音。 Unless you are a girl. Then I would tell you in English! I only except a girl kiss!

  • I am a girl! but you have to tell me where this training ground is before you get my kiss!

  • cool vid

  • 3.05 min is an awesome move

  • This is Grand Master LEE Chang Soo head master for Jin Jung kwan style

    head for centrale demo team of KHF and now technical director for the Federation of korea Hapkido

  • Very nice art, i just wish i was able to study it where i live. I will have to stick with Aikido for now.

  • There is no superior martial art, it is the skill of how you use it... every technique may have its weaknesess and strenghts, but what matter is the level of skill you possess.

  • yeah i agree. every martial art is just as affective as any other form of fighting. its all up to how much you practice and if you know what to do in a potentialy dangerous situation. you should choose the style that your mind and body work best with.

  • Fuck yeah! Death Wish music!

  • I would love to just leave this western world and go just train all day. Just toss me cell phone off some Korean 10,000 ft cliff and train!!

  • im jinchuriken

  • the only thing to expect from outsiders/westerners/foreigner­s, is praise or nothing. you don't deserve to criticize it cuz your ancestors never came up with this intelligent shit.

    just cuz ya'll watch mma and ufc, and love brazilian jujitsu and its effects doesn't mean you can go bashing on hapkido and other arts. cuz in the end, all these arts originated from china, korea, or japan.

    just learn whatever and give it respect, and you'll be respected back.

    peace

  • Don't really see what ancestors have to do with it. I do respect, it but that's not the point. The point is that there are better ways of doing things these days, and I dono about you but people are entitled to their own opinion, you seem pretty defensive and even maybe xenophobic... Hope everything works out for u.

  • Yes everyone is entitled to their own opinions and all that, but you have to understand that with so many UFC/MMA junkies out there running around bad mouthing any of the older martial arts it gets rather annoying. Plus, Hapkido is pretty modern. The first thing resembling a Hapkido school was established in the 1950's. Sure it takes a lot of influence from the ancient Korean fighting arts, but there's a reason that these techniques are used by cops and soldiers.

  • that's where you're wrong. It takes most of it's influence from Daito Ryu from ancient japan.

  • I know this, but the kicking and striking aspects are taken from arts like Tang Soo Do, Taekyon, and Hwarangdo.

  • slapbass04 - that`s truth, in my opinon hapkido is a mix of daito ryu aiki-jujutsu and korean kicking techniques
