The achievements, memories, the little souvenirs collected over the years are all part of the martial arts journey.
Melbourne Hapkido Academy teaching and training the most effective self defence system. Traditional martial arts, powerful self-defence.
Australia's first and Melbourne's only permanent Hapkido martial arts dojang. Grand Master Cairney has studied Korean martial arts since 1975, accumulating a wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm, which he generously passes onto his students. Quote: “there are no secret techniques, just hard work and practice.”

Language corner!
How to greet your Instructor and the class.
When we enter the dojang, we call out "annyeonghaseyo!" (ahn-young-ha-say-yo), and bow.
In Hangul (Korean writing), it's written as 안녕하세요.
This is a polite greeting, used to show respect to the dojang and acknowledge the Instructor and the students already inside.
See you in class tonight!
