| Description: |
Aikido, the way of spiritual harmony, is a practical Japanese martial art for self-defense. Aikido works because the right technique is executed from the right position, rather than because of muscular strength, so it can be practiced by people of all ages. When practicing aikido, you learn to use an attacker's momentum against him/herself; learn to blend with and neutralize your opponent effortlessly; improve your flexibility; and have fun while exercising. |

| Description: |
As a Martial Art, Hapkido teaches self-confidence, self-discipline and self-defense. This art seeks not to overscome an attacker with strength, but to use techniques which turn an attacker's own force against himself.
Hapkido is a complete art that uses joint-locking techniques like Aikido, throws and finishes like Jiu-Jutsu or Judo, and kicks and punches like Tae Kwon Do or Karate. Hapkido emphasizes practical techniques and stresses the importance of learning how to fall safely. Hapkido is a martial art, not a competitive sport and thus emphasizes the most important aspect of any martial art - self defense. Of course, they have fun too! |
