HJN Steve Seo (who was in California) had a great virtual training session with Master Rikard and PSBN Ottilia (they both were in different locations in Sweden!)

HJN Steve Seo has been testing out virtual training with multiple WKF schools and it has been going great!  Look out for an announcement from HJN Steve regarding Virtual training after the Korea trip!  

It was also a great way to help prepare for the upcoming Korea trip. We look forward to seeing Master Rikard, PSBN Ottilia, and the rest of the Nordic Hapkido team in Korea very soon!

Happy New Year!

On behalf of everyone at the World Kido Federation (WKF) and the Hanminjok Hapkido Association (HHA), we would like to wish you a joyous and prosperous holiday season and a very happy New Year.

As another year comes to a close and we look ahead to the year to come, we encourage everyone to take a moment to thank those who have supported you and helped make both your personal and martial arts journeys meaningful and successful this year. Let us continue to embody the core tenets of martial arts—respecting our seniors, caring for our juniors, and appreciating the encouragement and positivity of our extended martial arts family. It is through this shared support that we are able to do what we love and strive to become the best versions of ourselves.

In that same spirit, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to all of you—our WKF and HHA family and friends—for an incredible and memorable 2025.

Looking ahead to 2026, we would like to highlight five key focus areas for our organization and members:

1. Balancing “Old School” and “New School”
2. Embracing the Future Through Preservation (원형보존)
3. Optimizing Physical and Digital Engagement
4. Launch of the International WKF/HHA Tournament Circuit
5. Cultivating Unity and Community

Please contact us directly if you would like to learn more!

Let us challenge ourselves in 2026 and beyond to spread positivity, connection, and mutual respect through martial arts.

Thank you once again for an outstanding 2025. We look forward to an even more prosperous, meaningful, and memorable year ahead.

Chairman In Sun Seo, President Scott Sung Yeel Seo (HHA), President Steve Sung Kwon Seo(WKF)
