Social Projects

Shinson Hapkido is inextricably linked with a social and cultural commitment of national and international sort. One example is the International Hapkido Shinson festival for "Action Human", which we have organized regularly since 1984.

In addition, we have acquired sponsorships for 4 international projects through which people in need are helped directly - not only in the short term through donations but also in the long term by building kindergartens, hospitals and schools.

In connection with the annual international summer camp, the donations from the proceeds of the big show for example, are also applied for the benefit of a social project in the country which hosts the summer camp.

Han San Chon, South Korea

Sponsorships for Han San Chon, which is a home for terminally ill tuberculosis patients in South Korea, has existed since 1986.

Old and young together

Under this motto, many members work to help out others near the Shinson Hapkido school.  Shinson Hapkido members work from the idea that all are "one", and respect that the younger generation has a lot for which to thank the previous generation, they try to remember the older people's needs.
