Head Instructor Somnath Sikdar with student Pablo Camargo demonstrating some of the basic takedowns in our beginner's take down series for the Adult Martial Arts program at the Dragon Gym in Exton, PA
The adult martial arts program is based on traditional korean tae kwon do and hapkido while incorporating some of the realities and benefits of other martial arts like brazilian jiu jitsu and muay thai kickboxing.
In this video, you will see us go over 6 basic takedowns. We first learn take downs in a static way. After developing some level of proficiency, then we start practicing and trying to implement those techniques against different attacks and in different scenarios.
As with all martial arts training, the goal is to develop a strong foundation of movement ability and conceptual knowledge.
If you are in the exton, pa area, (west chester and downingtown is very close by) consider trying a class and joining our program. It's a lot of fun!
