This is how unofficially they call elite Korean martial arts. The eastern peninsula for a long time kept the secrets of this skill "neutralize" the opponent in a couple of seconds. Under the neck of the "secret" hapkido, only South Korean military units, secret services of the CIA and the KGB, European special services were trained. But all the secret always becomes obvious, and now hapkido is actively developing in different countries. According to the trainers, traditional kimono and a desire to test oneself are required for hapkido lessons. This is a tough mix of different elements of oriental martial arts. But if in aikido there is practically no shock equipment, everything is based on fencing, then in hapkido there are a lot of strikes. There are similar moments with karate in terms of kicking. From judo techniques of throwing technique are used.
This is not a sport. Therefore, as such, there are practically no competitions. And those people who attend the training seminars sign the paper that they have no claims in connection with traumatic danger. After all, in hapkido the norm is blows below the belt, knees, elbows and everything else. Here sports glasses are not important, the main thing is to quickly "calm down" the enemy. This is really working, very effective art. Be it a punch or a hall, without injury, the enemy will definitely not leave.
The principles of the Hapkido are based on following, sticking and fluidity. According to the laws of hapkido, one must be at a certain distance to the enemy. You will be far from him - you can not do anything, but the opponent can do it. Therefore, you have to flow around it. Also, the enemy must be unbalanced. For example, you are an ordinary girl, who is twice as light as a man who grabbed her hand. If you just start pulling out your hand, nothing will happen. Therefore, on his effort, you must respond with an anti-force. And when the enemy increases the load, you simply release his hand quietly. At this moment, there is no tension for you. This is fluidity.
