Combat Hapkido by John Pellegrini (On Demand)

John Pellegrini, the only American to earn a 9th Dan in Hapkido in Korea, also holds an 8th Dan in Taekwondo and is a certified instructor in Aikido and Jeet Kune Do. As the founder of Combat Hapkido, he developed a direct, practical, and modern self-defense system that emphasizes realistic applications, including low-line kicks, powerful blocking methods, stable stances, pressure-point control, and the legal aspects of self-defense.

In this instructional video, Grandmaster Pellegrini demonstrates highly effective self-defense techniques using joint locks, trapping methods, pressure-point applications, and disarming techniques against blunt weapons, knives, and firearms. Designed for instructors, martial artists, and serious self-defense practitioners, this comprehensive program presents realistic combat principles that can be applied in real-world situations. An outstanding instructional resource from one of the world's leading authorities on modern Hapkido.
