Hapkido is a Korean martial art that focuses on using joint locks, throws, kicks, punches, and other striking techniques to defend against an opponent. The word "hapkido" means "the way of harmony and energy," and the art emphasizes blending with and redirecting an opponent's force rather than meeting it head-on. Hapkido practitioners learn how to control and overpower their opponent using their own energy, and training often includes self-defense techniques, as well as learning to fall safely. It promotes flexibility, balance, and mental focus, and it is practiced both for self-defense and physical fitness.
