Eagle Hapkido prefers to educate students using a holistic approach to the martial art.
-
This means that a number of techniques are taught with an analysis of their use
-
However, Master Hwang does not believe in the idolization of the teacher, as it creates
-
an unnatural gap between the instructor and student. As a result, students are encouraged to
-
question the techniques taught in an open discussion when the time is appropriate.
-
Punching is a basic technique that evolves with training and ability.
-
Single kicks, double and triple kicks are taught. These may be executed with one foot
-
As a result, the practice of joint manipulation is essential for students to learn at
-
Throwing also involves a manipulation of the joints, but does not preclude other throwing techniques
-
Along these meridians lie pressure points.
-
The use of some typical weapons taught include the long staff, middle staff, and short
-
staff, as well as the cane, rope, and throwing knife.
-
There are no term tests at Eagle Hapkido. Testing is performed according to an individual's
-
progress, and is designed to challenge their capabilities as well as instill a sense of
-
desire for progression in their training. The entire testing procedure, including selection and grading, is
-
performed by Master Hwang.
-
A specific level of maturity is required, as Master Hwang instructs through guidance rather than
-
the formality of a regimented class. Therefore, children may join once they have reached between
-
10-15 years old.
