About hapkido

Origine:

Hapkido is a martial art which was created in the old Korea. It was develloped by the old Korean Monks to protect themselves better against attacking gangs. 

But Hapkido was so effective the Korean warlords got interested in it. And with lots of study they removed all the unnecessary stuff and made it a complete and effective martial art.

It took centuries for Hapkido to be introduced in the modern Western world. It all started with World War II the americans were thought hapkido by Korean civilians. After the war they took their knowledge back to Western World. And from that moment Hapkido started to become an more and more known and after a few years it came to Europe some more later Belgium

But this couldn't be done without the help of master Patrick Quintelier. He has a 6th degree black belt and is over 30 years busy with martial arts.

First our name: It's from the old "CHA-RYWCK" Korean legend. It were warriors who trained themselves extremely hard. The rolled down with rocks from mountains. They hardened themselves under waterfalls. These were ELITE warriors. Who didn't find a worthy enemy in combat because they were just to good. Well that's the meaning of it training in CHA-RYWCK  means training with the elite.  

second the art: In Hapkido Cha-Rywck we don't only give the traditional hapkido but also some extra's like: Taekyon Boxing system developped by Patrick Quintelier. You can compare it with MMA (mixed martial arts). But we also teach a style you can compare with Wing Chun. But now we are just talking about the fighting. There is also an important part of healing. You see training in Cha Rywck means a total package of martial arts mixed with healing elements which makes it unique in its kind. come and visit our dojang.
