The learning of Hapkido is suitable for men, women, and children from the age of 6.

Wellington Hapkido Academy teaches the traditional style of Hapkido. We run a relaxed and friendly class where serious learning takes place with little formality.


We operate out of a sports hub at Club K, 65 Salamanca Road, Kelburn, Wellington. The facilities include padded mats, changing rooms, showers, kick bags, and other equipment specific to martial arts.


We are a non-profit club with all instruction and administration provided voluntarily by our members.

We teach practical self-defence in a safe and enjoyable atmosphere. Each student is encouraged to learn and understand self-defence as a means to enable fitness, encourage well-being and gain confidence.

I have learned to use Hapkido breathing, posture and concentration techniques at work – particularly before meetings.

A couple of weeks ago I stumbled in on your classes. The instructor was awesome and I'd like to come back Saturday.
