West Coast Hapkido
Description
Hapkido has finally come to the West of Ireland.
Hapkido", a traditional Korean martial art and the 'National Martial Art of South Korea', was founded by 'DoJuNim' (Honorable Founder of the Way) Ji, Han Jae.
Hapkido literally translated: "Hap" means coordinated or in harmony,
"Ki" means the essence of power, and "Do" meaning a path or "the way". In short, Hapkido means "the Way of Coordinated Power". (www.worldsinmoohapkidofederation.com)
