I currently hold the rank of 3rd dan in Yongmudo Hapkido and I teach at Temple University Yongmudo Hapkido (see also Temple Hapkido's facebook group). Yongmudo Hapkido is a Korean self-defense oriented martial art. We incorporate kicks, strikes, blocks, falls, rolls, throws, joint locks, grab defenses, and groundwork into a modern adaptable self-defense system. In the USA, our style is headed by the Yongmudo club at Berkeley. I have also cross-trained with Aikido, Aikibudo, Jujitsu, and Judo clubs.
