so that being said I've gotten humbled on some odd nights cause I don't see that '3rd guy'. Bottom line, if you think it's fake and call bullshit on it. Why not go check out a Hap Ki Do dojang and simply ask to sit in on a class. The dojang I train at always has it's doors open to people interested in seeing what it has to offer. Any martial art, if trained dedicatedly at for an extended period of time, can be very effective to the user.

@shadec: If you bounce after only two years of HKD, you must be pretty good already. Pick up Steve "Road House" Sexton's DVDs; he is an 8th dan in the art and also a seasoned security professional with hundreds of real world encounters to his credit. The 1980s movie was based on his life, but the martial arts in that film bear very little resemblance to hapkido. Sexton is the real deal... check him out, some of his stuff is on You Tube for free.

@allblacksnumber1: BTW, don't let being thirty bother you. I started as a forty-something and am now a deputy blackbelt. The toughest, best fighters in my club are all over 30-years of age, and a couple of them are over-forty. HKD works at any age, for any build, if you are willing to train hard and stick with it long enough. It does take years to master the art well-enough to use it effectively at all times - but that's true of any martial art. Best of luck to you and train hard.

@allblacksnumber1: hapkido, like aikido, is a good martial art for women or anyone who wants to rely on technique instead of raw power and speed to defend themselves. HKD has these things, but they are applied scientifically, using the principles of physics, circular motion, and blending with the attack to inflict the maximum effect for the least effort and risk to yourself. But don't be afraid to get hit; fighting involves taking your lumps and the sooner you do that, the better off you'll be.

@jabxhook: Part 2 of my previous message. The "targets" or assailants in martial arts demos have to be trained how to fall and be thrown properly, which accounts for the students or assistants; otherwise they would suffer severe injury when the techniques are done to them. Being an "uke" - the guy having the techniques done to you, is in many ways harder than being the guy doing them. Believe me, it is painful, even you are experienced and in shape. The techniques work, believe me.

@jabxhook: HKD doesn't work in the real world? Wanna bet? Steve Sexton, the real-life subject of that ridiculous Patrick Swayze movie from the 1980s, is an 8th dan in Hapkido, and also a seasoned security professional with hundreds of hand-to-hand fights to his credit, some against multiple attackers with weapons.

John Pellegrini's Combat hapkido is the hand-to-hand system of choice for militaries, law enforcement and security pros all over the world, including our own spec ops people.
