Has anyone here entered a sparring tournament and used Hapkido techniques? I know that most of our techniques would be illegal in a tournament. Some of our circular redirection techniques could work I would think. What do you think?

no; i never used hapkido techs in tourniment type sparring............the way i was trained, it is to devestating and to easy to hurt someone for a trophy.

it would be a bad idea to start having hapkido tournaments...it would go by way of modern sport taekwondo...too many rules..too many politics..the reason i enjoy hapkido is because of its practicality and its effectivness in combat...this should only remain as training for actual self defense

I think that you mis understood Taezee. I am not in favor of a Hapkido tournament. I agree that turning Hapkido into sport is not what anyone who practices Hapkido wants. What my question refers to is a Hapkido practitioner participating in an open Karate tournament and how would Hapkido techniques be able to apply. Sorry for the misleading post.

My instructor told me that Song Il Park 9th degree in Hapkido was talking about Hapkido tournament back in Korea when he was young.
He said they were brutal.. you win by knock out or submission. But they were forbiden later by the goverment.
Also they had a lot of Challenge matches against others Kwans.
thanks. |
