When you translate it from Korean to English, it means "The way of coordinated power." To avoid any dispute about its historical origin, Hapkido was derived from much older Korean arts such as Tae Kyon (not to be confused with modern Tae Kwon Do), Hwa Rang Do, Yu-Sool (or Yoo-sool) and many feel its base influence comes from the Japanese art of Daito-Ryu Aiki-Ju Jitsu. Considering the Japanese occupied Korea from 1910 to 1945, this is very possible. Allegedly, Hapkido was first known as Hapkiyusool (or “Hapkiyoosool” /Translates to Aiki-Ju Jitsu in Japanese) and was founded by Grandmaster Choi Yong Sool. The art’s name was later changed to Hapkido. Like many Korean arts, (many already mentioned), Hapkido’s history is not completely clear and never totally agreed on by historians & Hapkido practitioners. I personally feel it really doesn’t matter, just enjoy the art. How Grand Master Choi Yong Sool may or may not have learned Aiki-Ju Jitsu is where all the historical fuss starts. Many Koreans & Japanese (no historical love loss) fight the obvious relationship of the arts. The influence of Daito-Ryu Aiki-Ju Jitsu is far reaching. It is also the father style of the art of Aikido. Hapkido has jokingly been called Aikido’s “ugly cousin”. Aikido was founded in approximately 1942. Pre 1942, Aikido was called Aiki-Budo and is sometimes referred to as pre-war Aikido or Hard style Aikido. One such style is Yoshinkan Aikido, which was founded by Gozo Shioda (a student of Morihei Ueshiba). This is a powerful ACD-Combatives / ACD-Hapkido / Self Defense / Control Tactics / Krav Maga system of Aikido. Morihei Ueshiba or “O-Sensei,” meaning-The Great Teacher, founded aikido. Many of Aikido’s core techniques remarkable/ have similarities to Hapkido. One key difference Hapkido has from aikido is the mindset and philosophy of the two arts. Aikido has become very philosophical and “non-violent” in nature. Many Hapkido, Aiki-Ju Jitsu and Ju Jitsu stylists feel that “post-War Aikido” has become too passive to be a good form of self-defense (in general, not true of all Aikido schools, no disrespect intended). I personally love training Aikido. It is an art you can grow old with. Hapkido is the primary Martial art in Korea for self-defense, military and police control tactics. It is the primary art of the Korean Police, Military and Presidential Protection units. Hapkido is a “soft & hard style” that relies on circular/blending/centripetal movements to off-balance, redirect, lock, and throw the attacker. The ACD-Hapkido System ACD-Combatives (ACD-Hapkido) is a practical self-defense & control tactics system based on Hapkido, Krav Maga, BJJ, and other martial arts I’ve trained. It is a full range martial art. The system should fit you, not forcing you to fit the system. ACD-Combatives (ACD-Hapkido) is a non-traditional hybrid martial art that doesn’t use classical terminology. It is a Modern/practical mixed system of Combatives/ Hapkido designed for today’s law enforcement. ACD-Combatives (ACD-Hapkido) uses a reality based approach to training. Not to suggest other schools of Hapkido or martial arts are not practical or effective. ACD-Combatives (ACD-Hapkido) simply barrows many concepts, and applicable techniques (& training methods) from Krav Maga, MMA, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Kajukenbo, and L.E. Control Tactics (see more history’s/information below). I used Hapkido as the base and formed a modern control tactics system around it. This is NOT for the LEO looking for a quick D.T.-course. This is for the LEO, security professional, or citizen that wants to train in a practical martial arts/combatives system. I have used my style of Hapkido/ combatives many times over the years to effectively detain and arrest suspects in real world Law Enforcement encounters. I know what works on the street and what only works in the gym. I have pressure tested my system. If it can’t hold up to live training, I removed it from my system. I take many of the concepts and tactics from Jiu Jitsu, MMA, and Krav Maga so the student can hit the ground running with practical self-defense on day one. I take the basic ground work/fighting from MMA & BJJ so the students can fight their way off the ground and not fear the ground. As much as I love BJJ, I believe you should avoid the ground in police work or street defense. We train self-defense ground work so the student can get back to their feet with confidence. I use joint locks, holds and takedowns to finish, detain or arrest. Like L.E. Control Tactics and military combatives, I like to teach the tactics, techniques and concepts so everyone can use them and not just athletically gifted people. I teach what I know works for everyone and no theory or unproven tactics. Be the best “average Joe” you can be. ACD-Combatives / ACD-Hapkido / Self Defense / Control Tactics / Krav Maga With over 24 years of law enforcement experience, I have been to court many times. As a Control Tactics Instructor and Field Training officer, I teach using case law, use of force & “court proofing” concepts. Ideas and methods that not only get you pass the defense attorney cross examination but will help you win in court (also later in civil court). You don’t want to give the impression that you train to kill or use excessive force. This is a law enforcement and not a military based system. Your training WILL COME UP IN COURT. If you are forced to defend yourself, you must know how to be “objectively reasonable” with your level of force (see Graham v. Conner). Many schools or systems don’t teach you court proven/case law based self-defense. I designed ACD-Combatives (ACD-Hapkido) with this in mind. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ)/Information (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art and combat sport system that focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting. Brazilian jiu-jitsu was formed from Kodokan judo ground fighting (ne-waza) fundamentals that were taught by a number of individuals including Takeo Yano, Mitsuyo Maeda and Soshihiro Satake. Brazilian jiu-jitsu eventually came to be its own combat sport through the experiments, practices, and adaptation of judo through Carlos and Hélio Gracie (who passed their knowledge on to their extended family) as well as other instructors who were students of Maeda, such as Luiz França. BJJ promotes the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend themselves or another against a bigger, stronger, heavier assailant by using proper technique, leverage, and most notably, taking the fight to the ground, and then applying joint locks and chokeholds to defeat the opponent. BJJ training can be used for sport grappling tournaments and in self- defense situations. Sparring (commonly referred to as "rolling" within the BJJ community) and live drilling play a major role in training, and a premium is placed on performance, especially in competition, in relation to progress and ascension through its ranking system. Since its inception in 1882, its parent art of judo was separated from older systems of Japanese jujutsu (or jujitsu) by an important difference that was passed on to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. It is not solely a martial art; it is also a sport, a method for promoting physical fitness and building character in young people, and ultimately a way of life. Krav Maga History/Information (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) -kʁav maˈɡa], lit. "contact-combat") is a military selfˈ] בקְרַ מַ גָּע :Krav Maga (/krɑːv məˈɡɑː/; Hebrew defense system developed for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and Israeli security forces (Shin Bet and Mossad) that consists of a combination of techniques sourced from Boxing, Wrestling, Muay Thai, Jujutsu, Aikido, Judo, along with realistic fight training. Krav Maga is known for its focus on real-world situations and its extreme efficiency and brutal counter- attacks. It was derived from the street-fighting experience of Hungarian-Israeli martial artist Imi Lichtenfeld, who made use of his training as a boxer and wrestler as a means of defending the Jewish ACD-Combatives / ACD-Hapkido / Self Defense / Control Tactics / Krav Maga quarter against fascist groups in Bratislava, Czechoslovakia in the mid-to-late 1930s. In the late 1940s, following his migration to Israel, he began to provide lessons on combat training to the Haganah what was to become the IDF. From the outset, the original concept of Krav Maga was to take the most simple and practical techniques of other fighting styles (originally European boxing, wrestling and street fighting) and to make them rapidly teachable to military conscripts. As a result, Krav Maga has built on its original base in Western boxing, wrestling and street fighting. It subsequently was influenced by characteristic clinches, low-kicks, elbow and knee strikes from Muay Thai introduced by the French-Israeli IDF instructor, André Zeitoun. Techniques from Aikido and Jiu-jitsu were introduced by IDF instructor Eli Avikzar.

  • The Legacy of Grandmaster Haumea “Tiny” Lefiti: Contemporary Applications of Monk Fist Boxing, Mok Ga, Dim Muk, and the Poison Hand
    The Legacy of Grandmaster Haumea “Tiny” Lefiti: Contemporary Applications of Monk Fist Boxing, Mok Ga, Dim Muk, and the Poison Hand By Prof. Carl Totton, Taoist Institute April, 2009 (Revised Dec., 2015) (Note: Most of the information for this article came directly from Haumea Lefiti himself. Tiny frequently shared this information with the author during the course of five years of study. The accuracy has also been checked with all of the few remaining individuals Tiny promoted to the rank of instructor who could be located, and through conversations with most of his remaining students and others who had information to share.) Grandmaster Haumea Lefiti, also known as Tiny, was a giant Samoan martial artist born in Hawaii in 1930. Weighing in at over 325 pounds and well over 6 feet tall, he was a mountain of a man, but with a big heart. His death in February, 1973 from a heart attack at the age of 43, left an even bigger void in the hearts of his students, friends, and family. Today, over 35 years later, there has been a resurgence of interest in Tiny and the arts he taught. This article is written to provide some information about Tiny, his styles, and his methods of teaching. Tiny had a background in boxing, including Golden Gloves and semi-pro matches, and in Samoan and Hawaiian street and knife fighting (Tiny‘s favorite weapon was the straight razor). He had pictures on the wall of his school in Huntington Park (CA) showing him as a young 18 year old fighter in his boxing trunks.

Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (November 2011) Martial arts are extensive systems of codified practices and traditions of combat, practiced for a variety of reasons, including self-defense, competition, physical health and fitness, as well as mental and spiritual development. The term martial art has become heavily associated with the fighting arts of eastern Asia, but was originally used in regard to the combat systems of Europe as early as the 1550s. An English fencing manual of 1639 used the term in reference specifically to the "Science and Art" of swordplay. The term is ultimately derived from Latin, martial arts being the "Arts of Mars," the Roman god of war.[1] Some martial arts are considered 'traditional' and tied to an ethnic, cultural or religious background, while others are modern systems developed either by a founder or an association.

    CQB KAJUKENBO CLUB Combatives, Personal Protection & Defensive Tactics FAQhttp://www.cqbkajukenbo.com Last Modified: 1st May, 2017, 11:50 AM “Only a warrior chooses pacifism; others are condemned to it.” — Unknown “We make war that we may live in peace.” — Aristotle “Civilize the mind but make savage the body.” — Chairman Mao Q: “WHAT IS KAJUKENBO?” Kajukenbo is a hybrid martial art that combines multiple martial arts including (but not limited to) western boxing, judo, jujutsu, kenpo karate, tang soo do, and kung fu. Kajukenbo is considered by many experts to be America’s first ‘Mixed Martial Art‘ — commonly known as ‘MMA‘. It was founded around 1947 in Oahu, Hawaii and the first classes were taught in the Palama Settlement Gym. The original purpose of the art was to deal with local crime, and to help the people defend themselves against U.S. Navy sailors from Pearl Harbor who would start fights with the locals. The creators are recognized as being Sijo (“founder”) Adriano Emperado, Peter Young Yil Choo, Joe Holck, Frank Ordonez, and George Chang, who were later called the ‘Black Belt Society’. The founders of Kajukenbo wanted to develop an art that would be readily useful on the street. As they trained and fought in and around Palama Settlement, the founders of Kajukenbo quickly gained reputations as formidable street-fighters. While similar to -and compatible with- Jeet Kune Do, Kajukenbo predates JKD by about 20 years. Kajukenbo uses hard, fast strikes to soft targets and vital points throughout the body, takedowns involving high impact throws and many joint and limb destruction techniques — usually as follow-ups to takedowns or grappling.

  • Hand to Hand Combat
    *FM 21-150 i FM 21-150 ii FM 21-150 iii FM 21-150 Preface This field manual contains information and guidance pertaining to rifle-bayonet fighting and hand-to-hand combat. The hand-to-hand combat portion of this manual is divided into basic and advanced training. The techniques are applied as intuitive patterns of natural movement but are initially studied according to range. Therefore, the basic principles for fighting in each range are discussed. However, for ease of learning they are studied in reverse order as they would be encountered in a combat engagement. This manual serves as a guide for instructors, trainers, and soldiers in the art of instinctive rifle-bayonet fighting. The proponent for this publication is the United States Army Infantry School. Comments and recommendations must be submitted on DA Form 2028 (Recommended Changes to Publications and Blank Forms) directly to Commandant, United States Army Infantry School, ATTN: ATSH-RB, Fort Benning, GA, 31905-5430. Unless this publication states otherwise, masculine nouns and pronouns do not refer exclusively to men. iv CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Hand-to-hand combat is an engagement between two or more persons in an empty-handed struggle or with handheld weapons such as knives, sticks, and rifles with bayonets. These fighting arts are essential military skills. Projectile weapons may be lost or broken, or they may fail to fire. When friendly and enemy forces become so intermingled that firearms and grenades are not practical, hand-to-hand combat skills become vital assets. 1-1. PURPOSE OF COMBATIVES TRAINING Today’s battlefield scenarios may require silent elimination of the enemy.

    Yongmudo By Dr. Ken Min, 9th Dan YMD Introduction The Martial Arts Research Institute of Yongin University, Korea developed a new name, mission, vision and technique called yongmudo on October 15, 1998. It is a discipline for the next millennium of martial artists. Yongmudo is a challenging martial art developed for the futuristic training method of Korean martial arts by adopting and enhancing the techniques of judo, taekwondo, ssirum and kumdo, along with hapkido, plus wrestling and boxing with emphasis on self-defense, self improvement, knowledge and techniques. Its mission is to incorporate up-to-date health and safety knowledge plus current technology of training in yongmudo for the mind and body. The Martial Arts College of Yongin University was established in 1953. Its mission: Justice, courage with courtesy for lifelong training, a positive contribution not only to society and country, but to humankind, through martial arts and sports education. Yongmudo strives to integrate techniques of Korean martial arts, not only the techniques of self-defense and self- improvement but also various forms of meditation, psychological and environmental health enhancement through training of the mind and body. The word Yong means “dragon”. The dragon was worshipped by many ancient Asian kingdoms as the most revered mystical being capable of unparalleled feats. Dragons were able to fly, breathe fire, live underwater or underground, conquer nature by causing tsunamis, earthquakes, floods and typhoons. It was glorified by painters, poets and writers as the most admired protector that could bring prosperity and good fortune to its worshipers. Mu means martial; combat and fighting, physical, mental and psychological warfare and strategy.
