Taekwondo
The way of the hand and the foot


Taekwondo is known for its emphasis on kicking techniques, which distinguishes it from martial arts such askarate or southern styles of kung fu. The rationale is that the leg is the longest and strongest weapon a martial artist has, and kicks thus have the greatest potential to execute powerful strikes without successful retaliation. Historically, the Koreans thought that the hands were too valuable to be used in combat. Taekwondo as a martial art is popular with people of both genders and of many ages. Physically, taekwondo develops strength, speed, balance, flexibility, and stamina. An example of the union of mental and physical discipline is thebreaking of wooden boards, bricks or tiles, which requires both physical mastery of the technique and the concentration to focus one’s power. Taekwondo teaches not only kicking and punching techniques but also life skills such as courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control and indomitable spirit. Those are Taekwondo tenets. K Martial Arts Centre focuses on teaching those ethics and life skills for your child’s character developments. Taekwondo boosts your child’s confidence as well. Our students receive certified certificate from Kukkiwon(World Taekwondo Headquarters) in Seoul, South Korea. K Martial Arts Centre is a official member of Taekwondo BC, Taekwondo CANADA, Kukkiwon(World Taekwondo Headquarters) and WTF(World Taekwondo Federation)

Hapkido 
The way of coordinating energy
Hapkido is a dynamic and also eclectic Korean martial art. It is a form of self-defense that employs joint locks, techniques of other martial arts, as well as kicks, punches, and other striking attacks. There is also the use of traditional weapons, including a sword, rope, nunchaku,cane, short stick, and staff (gun, bō) which vary in emphasis depending on the particular tradition examined.
Hapkido contains both long and close range fighting techniques, utilizing jumping kicks and percussive hand strikes at longer ranges and pressure point strikes, joint locks, or throws at closer fighting distances. Hapkido emphasizes circular motion, non-resisting movements, and control of the opponent. Practitioners seek to gain advantage through footwork and body positioning to employ leverage, avoiding the use of strength against strength.
Hapkido is based on three important basic principles:
1. Circular Motion (The principle of the circle)
All movements are round. The Hapkido fighter moves as inside a ball. Influencing forces are rerouted from the outside and neutralized at the surface of the “ball”.

2. Water Principle (The principle of the river)
As the river, which adapts extremely flexibly to the landscape and nevertheless in the moment the buildup develops an enormous strength, the Hapkidoka also sensitively reacts to his opponent, in order to let his pent-up “Ki” flow by the technique into the opponent in the crucial moment.

3. Non-resistance (The principle of influence)
By lightning movements, which hardly can be noticed the aggressor is arranged to reflex counter movements, which then are used in a subsequent technique.

Hapkido teaches great self-defense techniques against stranger, various attacks and bullies for your child. K Martial Arts Centre also teaches how to deal with stranger and introduce ‘Stranger Danger’ awareness and Training.
