About Kingsland Martial Arts

At Kingsland Martial Arts we teach the self-defence art of Hapkido. We run a very relaxed, fun class with very little formality. If you think you might be interested, come along and try it out, the first class is completely free. Read more about what you can expect as a beginner in Hapkido or look at our photo gallery for an idea of what a class is like.

We currently run classes from Kowhai Intermediate School, just 5 minutes from the Auckland CBD.
