History of Hapkido
As with most martial arts the history of Hapkido is shrouded
in mystery and controversy Lack of original records hearsay anecdotes politics egos and ravages of time all but ensure sketchy and biased accounts of the origin of this martial art
Over the past 2000 years the Korean people have
developed several fighting systems and martial disciplines which have evolved into modern TaeKwonDo Tang Soo Do Hapkido Kook Sook Hwa Rang Do and others Hundreds of years of trade war occupation and exchange between Korea and its neighbors China and Japan has resulted in ldquocross-pollinationrdquo mutual influence and blending of styles and techniques It is now virtually impossible to state with certainty which techniques are truly Korean Chinese or Japanese in origin
Hapkido was founded by Choi Yong Sool (1904-1986) Reportedly he developed the system by combining native Korean fighting methods with Japanese Daito Ryu Aiki-Ju Jitsu Choi had learned that system from its Headmaster Sokaku Takeda while living in Japan from 1915-1945 After his return to Korea Choi started teaching Self Defense (Yawara) in TaeGue City He initially called his system Yu Kwon Sool One of Choi‟s senior students Ji Han-Jae claims to have been the first to introduce the name ldquoHapkidordquo in Seoul in 1957 However this is strongly disputed by Choi‟s first student and mentor Prof Suh Bok Sup
who claims that he and Choi were already using the word ldquoHapkidordquo when they opened their first dojang (school) in 1951 Some ldquotraditionalrdquo instructors claim that Hapkido contains over 3600 techniques including as many as 120 different kicks However Prof Suh Bok Sup who was Choi‟s first and employer disputes this and asserts that the original Hapkido system as
3
taught by Choi was comprised of only 100 self defense techniques Nowadays there are many styles of Hapkido as well as over a dozen associations governing bodies Some styles have produced forms (Hyung) and require them for advancement others emphasize high kicking (including jumping and flying
kicks) still others heavily influenced by Judo and Aikido emphasize throwing skills The word Hapkido is made up of three distinct words As you will see each word has a few different meanings HAP which means to coordinate to combine to unite to join KI which means internal power dynamic energy DO which means the way
The word Taekwondo is made up of three distinct words As you will see each word has a few different meanings TAE which means foot KWON which means fist DO which means the way

Universal Theories of Hapkido
The three universal theories of Hapkido are
The Water Principle (Yu) which teaches the student to
penetrate the defenses of the attacker by ldquoflowingrdquo in over around or under
The Circular Motion Principle (Won) which teaches the
student how to gain and impart momentum by moving in a circular manner By redirecting the attack in a circular direction the student controls the balance and the kinetic energy of the attacker
The Non-resistance (or Harmony) Principle (Hwa) which
teaches the student to remain relaxed flexible (not tense) and not to meet force with force

Combat Hapkido
In 1990 Grandmaster Pellegrini officially named his style of Hapkido ldquoCombat Hapkidordquo (Chon-Tu Kwan Hapkido in Korean) The name clearly identifies it and sets it apart from other so called
ldquotraditionalrdquo styles of Hapkido It is also referred to as the ldquoScience of Self-Defenserdquo Combat Hapkido is an extremely realistic and versatile discipline of self protection that includes and extensive variety of joint locks kicks strikes take downs pressure points grappling and disarming techniques The result is a comprehensive Self Defense system enjoyable to learn safe to practice and most of all totally effective
Combat Hapkido‟s dynamic concepts are based on scientific principles of anatomy and biomechanics as well as psychology and strategy It is well suited for men and women of all ages and sizes because physical strength and athletic abilities are not essential The emphasis is on redirecting the assailants‟ aggression and power back toward them with little effort and minimum force on your part
8
Combat Hapkido Accreditation
Grandmaster Pellegrini first received unofficial approval for Combat Hapkido by Grandmaster In Sun Seo while training with him in Pusan Korea in 1993 After six years of monitoring and
supervision Grandmaster In Sun Seo granted Combat Hapkido official recognition and ldquoKwanrdquo accreditation in March of 1999 This unprecedented act established Combat Hapkido as a legitimate style of Hapkido registered with the World Ki-Do Federation and recognized by the Korean Government The official Korean name for the system is ldquoChon-Tu Kwan Hapkidordquo The ceremony of official recognition was held in Boca Raton Florida on March 27
th of 1999 Grandmaster Pellegrini was
presented with the official certificate of approval by the World Ki-Do Federation Korea Ki-Do Association

everything in the universe is created and develops through the interaction between yin and yang thus it symbolizes creation and development
The four trigrams surrounding the circle denote the process
of yin and yang going through a spiral of change and growth The three unbroken lines at the upper left represent heaven (kun) the three broken lines at the lower right represent earth (kon)
the two broken lines with an unbroken line in the middle at the upper right represent water (kam) and the two unbroken lines with an broken line in the middle at the lower left represent fire (yi)

History of Hapkido
As with most martial arts the history of Hapkido is shrouded
in mystery and controversy Lack of original records hearsay anecdotes politics egos and ravages of time all but ensure sketchy and biased accounts of the origin of this martial art
Over the past 2000 years the Korean people have
developed several fighting systems and martial disciplines which have evolved into modern TaeKwonDo Tang Soo Do Hapkido Kook Sook Hwa Rang Do and others Hundreds of years of trade war occupation and exchange between Korea and its neighbors China and Japan has resulted in ldquocross-pollinationrdquo mutual influence and blending of styles and techniques It is now virtually impossible to state with certainty which techniques are truly Korean Chinese or Japanese in origin
Hapkido was founded by Choi Yong Sool (1904-1986) Reportedly he developed the system by combining native Korean fighting methods with Japanese Daito Ryu Aiki-Ju Jitsu Choi had learned that system from its Headmaster Sokaku Takeda while living in Japan from 1915-1945 After his return to Korea Choi started teaching Self Defense (Yawara) in TaeGue City He initially called his system Yu Kwon Sool One of Choi‟s senior students Ji Han-Jae claims to have been the first to introduce the name ldquoHapkidordquo in Seoul in 1957 However this is strongly disputed by Choi‟s first student and mentor Prof Suh Bok Sup
who claims that he and Choi were already using the word ldquoHapkidordquo when they opened their first dojang (school) in 1951 Some ldquotraditionalrdquo instructors claim that Hapkido contains over 3600 techniques including as many as 120 different kicks However Prof Suh Bok Sup who was Choi‟s first and employer disputes this and asserts that the original Hapkido system as
3
taught by Choi was comprised of only 100 self defense techniques Nowadays there are many styles of Hapkido as well as over a dozen associations governing bodies Some styles have produced forms (Hyung) and require them for advancement others emphasize high kicking (including jumping and flying
kicks) still others heavily influenced by Judo and Aikido emphasize throwing skills The word Hapkido is made up of three distinct words As you will see each word has a few different meanings HAP which means to coordinate to combine to unite to join KI which means internal power dynamic energy DO which means the way
The word Taekwondo is made up of three distinct words As you will see each word has a few different meanings TAE which means foot KWON which means fist DO which means the way
4
Universal Theories of Hapkido
The three universal theories of Hapkido are
The Water Principle (Yu) which teaches the student to
penetrate the defenses of the attacker by ldquoflowingrdquo in over around or under
The Circular Motion Principle (Won) which teaches the
student how to gain and impart momentum by moving in a circular manner By redirecting the attack in a circular direction the student controls the balance and the kinetic energy of the attacker
The Non-resistance (or Harmony) Principle (Hwa) which
teaches the student to remain relaxed flexible (not tense) and not to meet force with force
5
The Founder of Combat Hapkido
Grandmaster John Pellegrini is the Founder and President of the International Combat Hapkido Federation and the Independent Taekwondo Association With over 35 years of
Martial Arts study and research in Europe the US and Asia he is recognized as one of the foremost experts and leading authority on Self Defense His superior teaching skills and technical knowledge have earned him the highest reputation worldwide

Combat Hapkido
In 1990 Grandmaster Pellegrini officially named his style of Hapkido ldquoCombat Hapkidordquo (Chon-Tu Kwan Hapkido in Korean) The name clearly identifies it and sets it apart from other so called
ldquotraditionalrdquo styles of Hapkido It is also referred to as the ldquoScience of Self-Defenserdquo Combat Hapkido is an extremely realistic and versatile discipline of self protection that includes and extensive variety of joint locks kicks strikes take downs pressure points grappling and disarming techniques The result is a comprehensive Self Defense system enjoyable to learn safe to practice and most of all totally effective
Combat Hapkido‟s dynamic concepts are based on scientific principles of anatomy and biomechanics as well as psychology and strategy It is well suited for men and women of all ages and sizes because physical strength and athletic abilities are not essential The emphasis is on redirecting the assailants‟ aggression and power back toward them with little effort and minimum force on your part
8
Combat Hapkido Accreditation
Grandmaster Pellegrini first received unofficial approval for Combat Hapkido by Grandmaster In Sun Seo while training with him in Pusan Korea in 1993 After six years of monitoring and
supervision Grandmaster In Sun Seo granted Combat Hapkido official recognition and ldquoKwanrdquo accreditation in March of 1999 This unprecedented act established Combat Hapkido as a legitimate style of Hapkido registered with the World Ki-Do Federation and recognized by the Korean Government The official Korean name for the system is ldquoChon-Tu Kwan Hapkidordquo The ceremony of official recognition was held in Boca Raton Florida on March 27
th of 1999 Grandmaster Pellegrini was
presented with the official certificate of approval by the World Ki-Do Federation Korea Ki-Do Association

taught by Choi was comprised of only 100 self defense techniques Nowadays there are many styles of Hapkido as well as over a dozen associations governing bodies Some styles have produced forms (Hyung) and require them for advancement others emphasize high kicking (including jumping and flying
kicks) still others heavily influenced by Judo and Aikido emphasize throwing skills The word Hapkido is made up of three distinct words As you will see each word has a few different meanings HAP which means to coordinate to combine to unite to join KI which means internal power dynamic energy DO which means the way

Universal Theories of Hapkido
The three universal theories of Hapkido are
The Water Principle (Yu) which teaches the student to
penetrate the defenses of the attacker by ldquoflowingrdquo in over around or under
The Circular Motion Principle (Won) which teaches the
student how to gain and impart momentum by moving in a circular manner By redirecting the attack in a circular direction the student controls the balance and the kinetic energy of the attacker
The Non-resistance (or Harmony) Principle (Hwa) which
teaches the student to remain relaxed flexible (not tense) and not to meet force with force

Combat Hapkido‟s dynamic concepts are based on scientific principles of anatomy and biomechanics as well as psychology and strategy It is well suited for men and women of all ages and sizes because physical strength and athletic abilities are not essential The emphasis is on redirecting the assailants‟ aggression and power back toward them with little effort and minimum force on your part

Universal Theories of Hapkido
The three universal theories of Hapkido are
The Water Principle (Yu) which teaches the student to
penetrate the defenses of the attacker by ldquoflowingrdquo in over around or under
The Circular Motion Principle (Won) which teaches the
student how to gain and impart momentum by moving in a circular manner By redirecting the attack in a circular direction the student controls the balance and the kinetic energy of the attacker
The Non-resistance (or Harmony) Principle (Hwa) which
teaches the student to remain relaxed flexible (not tense) and not to meet force with force
5

14
suddenly as it comes leaving blue sky sunshine and rain freshened air in its wake It teaches to act calmly and
bravely in the face of loud and terrifying dangers real or imagined knowing that they too shall pass
Taeguek Oh Jang - Symbolizes Wind

the typhoon hurricane and tornado the winds true nature is gentle but penetrating The wind teaches humility and good-natured actions Like a gentle breeze this form is simple Yet like a storm it is strong and powerful

Water always flows downward and in time can wear away the hardest granite We learn that we can overcome every difficulty if we go forward with self-confidence and persistence Like water this form is gentle yet destructive It teaches that man when faced with a challenge can overcome it by persistence and unwavering belief
Taeguek Chil Jang - Symbolizes Mountain
A mountain is stable and cannot be moved This form teaches us to move only when it is necessary to move - and then move rapidly - and stop suddenly and solidly standing like a rock It teaches commitment to notion and to immobility for one must not waver

14
suddenly as it comes leaving blue sky sunshine and rain freshened air in its wake It teaches to act calmly and
bravely in the face of loud and terrifying dangers real or imagined knowing that they too shall pass
Taeguek Oh Jang - Symbolizes Wind
Although there are horrible and destructive winds such as
the typhoon hurricane and tornado the winds true nature is gentle but penetrating The wind teaches humility and good-natured actions Like a gentle breeze this form is simple Yet like a storm it is strong and powerful

Water always flows downward and in time can wear away the hardest granite We learn that we can overcome every difficulty if we go forward with self-confidence and persistence Like water this form is gentle yet destructive It teaches that man when faced with a challenge can overcome it by persistence and unwavering belief
Taeguek Chil Jang - Symbolizes Mountain
A mountain is stable and cannot be moved This form teaches us to move only when it is necessary to move - and then move rapidly - and stop suddenly and solidly standing like a rock It teaches commitment to notion and to immobility for one must not waver
Taeguek Pal Jang - Symbolizes Earth
The earth is receptive gentle and nurturing It signifies the infinite concentration of UM energy (UM is a passive
receptive force) The Earth hugs and grows everything It nurtures in silence and in strength It teaches us the importance of the life force within ourselves and to respect life in all forms

of yin and yang going through a spiral of change and growth The three unbroken lines at the upper left represent heaven (kun) the three broken lines at the lower right represent earth (kon)
the two broken lines with an unbroken line in the middle at the upper right represent water (kam) and the two unbroken lines with an broken line in the middle at the lower left represent fire (yi)

14
suddenly as it comes leaving blue sky sunshine and rain freshened air in its wake It teaches to act calmly and
bravely in the face of loud and terrifying dangers real or imagined knowing that they too shall pass
Taeguek Oh Jang - Symbolizes Wind
Although there are horrible and destructive winds such as
the typhoon hurricane and tornado the winds true nature is gentle but penetrating The wind teaches humility and good-natured actions Like a gentle breeze this form is simple Yet like a storm it is strong and powerful

Water always flows downward and in time can wear away the hardest granite We learn that we can overcome every difficulty if we go forward with self-confidence and persistence Like water this form is gentle yet destructive It teaches that man when faced with a challenge can overcome it by persistence and unwavering belief
Taeguek Chil Jang - Symbolizes Mountain
A mountain is stable and cannot be moved This form teaches us to move only when it is necessary to move - and then move rapidly - and stop suddenly and solidly standing like a rock It teaches commitment to notion and to immobility for one must not waver

The earth is receptive gentle and nurturing It signifies the infinite concentration of UM energy (UM is a passive
receptive force) The Earth hugs and grows everything It nurtures in silence and in strength It teaches us the importance of the life force within ourselves and to respect life in all forms

The Korean National Flag
The Korean National Flag the symbol of the Republic of
Korea South Korea is named Taegukki The name was derived from the taeguk circle in the center
The circle is divided equally and in perfect balance The red
upper section represents the yang and the blue lower section
stands for the yin According to traditional Oriental Philosophy the two symbolize the great cosmic forces which oppose each other but achieve perfect harmony and balance
The taeguek circle stands for the eternal principle that
everything in the universe is created and develops through the interaction between yin and yang thus it symbolizes creation and development
The four trigrams surrounding the circle denote the process
of yin and yang going through a spiral of change and growth The three unbroken lines at the upper left represent heaven (kun) the three broken lines at the lower right represent earth (kon)
the two broken lines with an unbroken line in the middle at the upper right represent water (kam) and the two unbroken lines with an broken line in the middle at the lower left represent fire (yi)
12
The white background of the flag symbolizes the purity of
the Korean people and their peace-loving spirit The flag as a whole is symbolic of the ideal of the Korean people to develop forever together with the universe
The American Flag
The American flag is the symbol of the United States of America The blue in the flag represents LIBERTY The red in
the flag represents BLOOD The white in the flag represents COURGE The 13 stripes on the flag represent THE FIRST 13
COLONIES The 50 stars represent THE STATES IN THE UNITED STATES
13
The Taeguek Forms (poomse)
Taeguek Il Jang - Symbolizes Heaven
This form represents the source of creation by presenting
the most basic techniques It therefore is the foundation from which the other forms build
Taeguek Ee Jang - Symbolizes Joyfulness
This form represents a frame of mind which is serene and gentle yet firm within the state from which true virtue smiles This form consists of movements that are made softly yet firmly with control
Taeguek Sam Jang - Symbolizes Fire
This form represents fire and sun and their characteristics of warmth enthusiasm and hope Like fire this form is filled with changing bursts of power connected with a continuous flow of motion
Taeguek Sa Jang - Symbolizes Thunder
Thunder combined with lightning evokes fear and trembling but reminds us that danger like a thunderstorm passes as
14
suddenly as it comes leaving blue sky sunshine and rain freshened air in its wake It teaches to act calmly and
bravely in the face of loud and terrifying dangers real or imagined knowing that they too shall pass
Taeguek Oh Jang - Symbolizes Wind
Although there are horrible and destructive winds such as
the typhoon hurricane and tornado the winds true nature is gentle but penetrating The wind teaches humility and good-natured actions Like a gentle breeze this form is simple Yet like a storm it is strong and powerful
Taeguek Yuk Jang - Symbolizes Water
Water always flows downward and in time can wear away the hardest granite We learn that we can overcome every difficulty if we go forward with self-confidence and persistence Like water this form is gentle yet destructive It teaches that man when faced with a challenge can overcome it by persistence and unwavering belief
Taeguek Chil Jang - Symbolizes Mountain
A mountain is stable and cannot be moved This form teaches us to move only when it is necessary to move - and then move rapidly - and stop suddenly and solidly standing like a rock It teaches commitment to notion and to immobility for one must not waver
Taeguek Pal Jang - Symbolizes Earth
The earth is receptive gentle and nurturing It signifies the infinite concentration of UM energy (UM is a passive
receptive force) The Earth hugs and grows everything It nurtures in silence and in strength It teaches us the importance of the life force within ourselves and to respect life in all forms

Taeguek Il Jang - Symbolizes Heaven
This form represents the source of creation by presenting
the most basic techniques It therefore is the foundation from which the other forms build

Taeguek Sam Jang - Symbolizes Fire
This form represents fire and sun and their characteristics of warmth enthusiasm and hope Like fire this form is filled with changing bursts of power connected with a continuous flow of motion
Taeguek Sa Jang - Symbolizes Thunder
Thunder combined with lightning evokes fear and trembling but reminds us that danger like a thunderstorm passes as
14
suddenly as it comes leaving blue sky sunshine and rain freshened air in its wake It teaches to act calmly and
bravely in the face of loud and terrifying dangers real or imagined knowing that they too shall pass
Taeguek Oh Jang - Symbolizes Wind
Although there are horrible and destructive winds such as
the typhoon hurricane and tornado the winds true nature is gentle but penetrating The wind teaches humility and good-natured actions Like a gentle breeze this form is simple Yet like a storm it is strong and powerful
Taeguek Yuk Jang - Symbolizes Water
Water always flows downward and in time can wear away the hardest granite We learn that we can overcome every difficulty if we go forward with self-confidence and persistence Like water this form is gentle yet destructive It teaches that man when faced with a challenge can overcome it by persistence and unwavering belief

A mountain is stable and cannot be moved This form teaches us to move only when it is necessary to move - and then move rapidly - and stop suddenly and solidly standing like a rock It teaches commitment to notion and to immobility for one must not waver
Taeguek Pal Jang - Symbolizes Earth
The earth is receptive gentle and nurturing It signifies the infinite concentration of UM energy (UM is a passive
receptive force) The Earth hugs and grows everything It nurtures in silence and in strength It teaches us the importance of the life force within ourselves and to respect life in all forms
