I just thought we could have a thread for those of us looking for places to learn specific martial arts.


So for me, does anyone know where in America I can find a place that teaches either Hapkido or Muay Thai/ Muay Boran?

Ever since the explosion of mma, you can find muay thai everywhere!

As for hapkido, Ive only seen schools that blend it in with the rest of their formal training, just like my old school. Thats just on my side of the states in the west.

Eh I think you should edit this slightly. Where can you find a decent (insert martial art here) school... Cos totally s**t martial arts classes out number decent ones by a significant margin.

As far as hapkido goes, there is a place in flornce south carolina called Traditonal korean martial arts. It teaches a blend of korean martial arts. IDk if it is any good, i was going to go but gas money was an issue.
You might try asking around on kyushospace.com. It is a martial artist version of mysapce. Look me up if your on there. No retreat in battle.

well if you can't find a decent hapkido place you might wanna try finding aikido, they are different but have the same basic taste seeing as how they have the same origins

Yeah, you're right. Oh well, I would think most people will know what I mean.

Nephilim Blade: well yeah, I know that. What I meant is a school where that's all they teach. Although I don't doubt how well an MMA school could teach techniques, I prefer to learn what I can of arts I'm interested in and still know how they are arts. Not just martial.

Yeah that's very different if you are looking for a place that teaches more than just the skill itself.

That's tough to find, without sacrificing quality.

Yeah, quality is the major problem. Don't wanna train in a bullshido place, right?

Yeah, as Mythic used to say, "Mcdojo"
