During the Hapkido summercamp of 2019 we trained one week with 2 Korean masters of Combat MMA. The name of their style is Kyuksuldo. Every day we trainied 8-10 hours and we had a great and inspiring week and shared a lot of knowledge.
Turned out our styles have many things in common. For example the use of flow and focussing on repetition of the basics.
Kyuksuldo is more a combat and fighting style, where Hapkido is focused on martial art aspects. I hope we can meet again soon in The Netherlands or South-Korea.
This summercamp was organised by Hapkido Urk (Chongmukwan).

Nice…
If there is no resistance from your training partner the application will be useless.
Very good! 🙂
Only works when you have a cooperative opponent who knows when to fall like an idiot….
Strange music choice for this video…
…but it worked and I like it!
Looks like a very nice school. But CAMO GIs ?! Come on xD
I don't know about Korea I'm pretty sure the police academy over there do Hapkido, Judo and Kumdo. In Japan, the Tokyo riot police have a police training curriculum based on 3 martial arts which is Judo, Yoshinkan Aikido and Kendo. It's pretty much similar in both countries.
Beautiful martial art! I'm into Wing Tsun. All the best to you and keep on training!
Hapkido is a mixed martial art so it is MMA.
Ouch
Hapkido is awesome 👍👍👌👌👊👊🥊🥊🙏🙏🥋🥋
Hapkido in my opinions in the perfect balance for MMA because it is extreemly versitle, giving a bit of everything for street defense and can offer a sense of calm at the same time. We all think about what is best and perhaps we should really ask what is the most balanced. When you look at the way some people train and then ask what they can and can not do as for performance and to think that way is akin to playing devils advocate because no one knows the outcome. Just think about it like this there are people who get punched in the street and are killed unintentionally, If you can kill a person through sheer force with one punch and no training anything is possible. Also, it makes sense when you factor in the double impact of the persons skull cracking against a ledge, concrete etc. ~ It's a sad reality of combat in the streets.
Hapkido, Sambo, judo, BJJ, SUBMISSIONS from catch, all derive from jujutsu
I wish we could see a special rules MMA match that allowed small joint manipulation and no gloves/wraps so we can see Hapkido in real-ish application against trained opponents.
Very good, Is that like combat hapkido?
