Hapkido and Fundamental Martial Art Principles Class

We have been having a Hapkido theme recently, so I thought a class in which we explore some of the fundamental principles on which Hapkido and many other martial art techniques are based may be useful.

There are two approaches to studying the martial arts. One approach is to learn many techniques; another approach is to understand the underlying principles. Most people go through the former and try to accumulate hundreds of techniques. However, if you approach the martial arts from the latter, and you understand the principles, then you can figure out the techniques yourself.

There is a saying, that goes something to this effect: Learn 100 techniques and you may know 100 techniques. Learn 1 principle and you will know 1000 techniques.

This class is for anybody with an interest in the "why?" rather than the "how?".

Beginners are welcome.

The workshop will be from 11:30am until 12:45. At 1pm we will have an introduction to Jeet Kune Do session. Please feel free to stay for that as well!

'The Way' is in the same building as the ????? (Harmony Mart), on the second floor. The name of the building is Ilgak Building (????). Look for the 'The Way' signs.
