Online Workout 2020

In this difficult time Enso Center is moving to online workouts and other remote learning opportunities. We have been working on remote learning and remote community building tools with Mix Acupuncture (https://mixacupuncture.com) for some time and planned to be implementing them over the next year. The current situation has accelerated our plans. In the long run I hope these new tools will help us grow into more connected and more capable martial artists.

The first tool is a website. The website https://hapkidocircle.com/ is available now and will be free for currently enrolled students until we are encouraged by the local government to resume classes at the center. The website has the framework behind our system and our complete white-black belt curriculum with written and video content. In order to take advantage of this offer, just go to the website, scroll to the bottom and “join our mailing list”. You will then get an email asking you to create a password and then you will have access. If you have any trouble please contact jason.mix6@gmail.com.

About Us

Kiwon Hapkido

The techniques and curriculum of a martial art are like an alphabet. As you learn the letters, you are able to read and write. It is our goal to help people to express themselves and communicate. As we become more comfortable with reading, we no longer think about the individual letters, and we can create poetry. Rules and systems can be used to separate people or to bring people together.

We hope that this book will give people from different places and traditions a language to communicate and come together, to recognize our similarities as well as our differences.

The history of Hapkido has been told many times from different perspectives. It is our goal to look for direction from the arts and people that Hapkido’s founder and early pioneers honored. This is the heritage of Hapkido.
