Ingrid Kern yup.

Thanks!

upitersport there really is no such thing as original Hapkido, that is unless you're referring to Diato Ryu Aiki Jujitsu. Chou from the beginning so I to continually evolve the art. It never became stagnant a solitary enough to be originally anything. It is a continually evolving style and system. This can be seen in that what it was originally coined a lot of the primary an original students were already martial artist and other styles. They brought their existing expertise into the art and we get to evolve immediately. Choi himself did this by immediately upon his arrival in Korea start integrating judo best defense techniques with his very first student who is a judo black belt. When the name of the art was coined Jae was already integrated boxing techniques and the kicking of other arts into it. Even my grandmaster who is around in the beginning took what he had learned with his original instructor and what he learned in Hapkido and immediately started to evolve it. And it continues to evolve to this day. This is one art that has never been stale, stagnant or existed without integration and evolution long enough to become an original anything unless you want to count DRAJJ.
