Martial Artists of all styles are acknowledging Hapkido as an “all encompassing” system. Though technically a soft-style, Hapkido incorporates not only a wide variety of throws (like Judo), joint-locks (like Aikido), and submissions / chokes (like Jiu-jitsu), but also powerful striking regimen. Fast, fluid, and precise punches, kicks, and specialized strikes also make up a large portion of Hapkido training.
TAE KWON DO - The Way of Hand and Foot - Tae Kwon Do (TKD) is a hard-style system dominated by punching and kicking. TKD is the most popular martial art in the world today, though the vast majority of TKD schools teach the Olympic Style TKD almost exclusively. Olympic TKD is geared toward sporting competition rather than combat or self defense. Way of Orient teaches TKD as an actual fighting system, rather than just a sport. While Way of Orient encourages students to participate in competition as part of the training routine, it understands that there is a dramatic difference between just training for sport and training for the real world.
TAI CHI - Supreme Ultimate Fist - boundless fist -Tai Chi is an internal Chinese martial art practiced for both its defense training and its health benefits.
