These products are good for those individuals that are now training or having had some previous experience in Hapkido or other similar Korean martial arts. It is difficult to see the hand positions for many of the techniques. Other than that you will see super rolling, throwing, blocking, locking, rotation, and flexion.

I have practiced hapkido for almost 10 years now. This is a great dvd to buy if you want to review techniques you've already learned, get a different take on techniques you already are familiar with, or simply want to know more about hapkido. It is not, however, possible or a good idea to learn something new from this dvd. Mr. Miyagi put it best when he said you cannot learn karate from a book.
