You show some very physically talented people there. I have to wonder how well the chin na shown in the vid would work if the attacker was resisiting, particularly where it was obvious the "attacker" was jumping into the throws. It looked to be a great demo and should pull many people into your school.

Agreed, it's so interesting for me to see Hapkido vidoes like these because the actual techniques being used are ones we use as well but against resisting opponents and the reaction we get from our "opponent" is nothing like the demo. But the techniques are very similar.

I have been finding throws are really hard against resisting opponents. Now I am new to throws/takedowns but have been drilling them live a lot lately. I find it much easier to do a single/double leg takedown than throw. The guys who can do throws in my gym effectively are really good at setting them up which I cant do at this point. I have always been curious to see if those arm/wrist throws would work against a resisting opponent. The throws we do in bjj are all judo hip throws mostly.

I was wondering the same thing. I would love to see Hapkido in action in a full contact fight. I don't think I've ever had the pleasure of witnessing good Hapkido. (I've never actually tried searching for it yet)

no one is resisting in this video mainly because it is a demo and we make it look flashy however, when we spar throws are the most useful things to pull off in close range.
If you are struggling with throws a tip i would say is change direction quickly e.g. push the person forward and they will naturally resist and come towards you and as they tense and resist towards you then throw. I picked this up through judo and my master in hapkido taught me to use it fully.
I must point out that jumping makes it look flashy however on lock throws it is a nessesity to jump as if you dont thats your wrist gone
Thanks for the feedback guys, it was a quick video i put together of some demos but im getting some great feedback, keep it coming

generally theres not many videos because we do not compete in competitions with other clubs because joint manipulation etc. is banned in other competitions, ill try and get someone to film a few fights at my club next time we have a sparring session.
Its great to watch because you can see the two guys really thinking everything through, especially distraction techniques such as clapping in the face then taking the legs out with a low sweep kick lmao (great to watch,) unlike some competition fights where its just free for alls lol

Joint manipulation is allowed in MMA. You just cant do the fingers.

John throws are hard to get on resisting opponents. What I did even in greco was start with one throw say belly to back and that's all I was gonna try in practice for weeks and weeks. The throws that are my bread and butter are the lateral, over under, belly to back, tai otoshi, head lock throw, uchi matta, side suplex. And the only reason I'm good at any of these is because I did them one at a time for months. It's funny because in our area my gym is kind of known for our lateral and head lock throws.l_33638e05533d4c499ba5bcc927f237ac.jpg

The set up on throws is very, very, very, important. Breaking the balance points to get a throw to work is essential, otherwise you are just trying to do somehting that will be easily resisted...and what's the point in that?

Joint manipulation is allowed in MMA. You just cant do the fingers.
a lot of our moves consist of putting the person to he floor by bending there arm against the way the joint moves e.g. we have a move called knife hand which is where from many positions the arm is extended and the fore arm is just above the elbow and at the bottom of the tricep. Now once you have this you snap your body weight forward and down and this snaps the elbow joint, its happened a few times in our club where white belts get a bit to excited and break someones arm because they dont know the power of the technique.
I meant it is those kind of joint manipulation techniques which are banned

Nice. Yea the throws are harder. I like the ankle pick move and will give it a go this week.

nah, that is not banned at all. You can do all throws/takedowns from hapkido in mma and you can do your joint manipulations. You just cant do finger locks. That move you described would be legal in bjj competition as well.
