 News Item: Poong Yu Kom - attention all 3rd Degrees!

SyllabusFor Black Belts studying the 3rd Degree Syllabus one of the elements you need to know is the Poong Yu Kom pattern. This sword pattern is very difficult to do properly as it requires subtlety, timing and softness rather than strength and speed.

To assist you in your studies we are pleased to make available a video from the 1995 Korea trip. Enjoy and study it well. If you have any questions ask a 4th Degree or higher about this pattern as they would have done it for their grading.

Click on the image below to see the video on Youtube.

 New batch of Level 1 Instructors Graduated in Sep 2008

SyllabusIn September 2008 the AHA delivered the Instructor Course to 37 participants - for some of them this was the first one they attended. We have been delivering instructor courses since 1992 and have put 111 instructors through Level Certification in this time - with many having gone through several times. The accreditation is only valid for 3 years and must be accompanied by a valid First Aid Certificate.

A course was run on Norfolk Island as well by Tup Moekaa and Master Brown will be running the course in Northern NSW in Nov 08. This course is aimed at keeping all our instructors up to date with the latest techniques and concentrates on how to teach Hapkido safely to minimise injury to all.

 News Item: Music for your Poong Yu Gwan pattern

SyllabusIf you are learning the Poong Yu Gwan pattern (Red Tips) or if you like doing it with music then you can now download the song that we usually play with this pattern.

Having music will help you keep the correct rythm, you will also find it more fun and more relaxing. Click on any image below to download the MP3 file.

This song was provided to the AHA in 1995 by Professor Huh Il Won from the Myung Ji University in Yong-In, South Korea. Do not expect hi-fidelity sound - it is a bit crackly - but that adds to the atmosphere!!

 News Item: Black Belt Syllabus V3 is now available

SyllabusThe Black Belt Syllabus is now available on the web site. Up to now our focus has been on the coloured belts - ignoring the need for Black Belts to have clear information regarding what they are supposed to be working on. This Black Belt Syllabus addresses this neglect and sets down the requirements for each grade from 1st Degree to 4th degree.
