#5 made even nastier!
Last Saturday, Justin dropped by Yokkaichi for the afternoon. During our Hapkido practice, I introduced him to some black belt level technique concepts and while working different angles with techniques, we discovered a nasty #5 variation. It's basically an upside down 5 with an almost 38 special twist to it. It's definitely a technique worth writing home about. We also did some first dan techniques, though aside from short stick, I am largely displeased with the first dan curriculum. Too many relics from Choe's still in there for my tastes.
