Can arts like KukSool, HapKiDo, HwarangDo, etc. be saved?

The Hapkido club at Indiana University studied anything they
could get their hands on.
Their style of hapkido was based on five basic motions....it was
not "learning-by-the-numbers" like in KukSool. So, kudos to
you American HKD for broadening your horizons.

Yes I am.

Mostly Bjj because we do it in my classes at least once a week.

I haven't had the time for Kali much but I do some seminars here and there.

Thanks I've been open to all good MA for many many years!

I still think HKD has so much to offer even hardcore the traditional way but westerners attitudes are a lot different then Asians. I think it's easier for Asians to follow and not question very much.

It's cultural!
