Hapkido House Martial Arts
About Our Instructors
Mark Power
Mark Power grew up a sports fanatic. He was a kid who loved the challenge of the game. “After losing a step (or two), I decided to take on something I had wanted to do for as long as I could remember – the challenge of attaining a black belt in the martial arts.” He was in the middle of completing a California teaching credential and master’s degree in teaching when Mr. Power began what eventually became a mastering of Hapkido, “The Way of Coordinated Power”. After two decades of hard work and focus, Mr. Power and family made their way to Seattle, where he and his wife, Elizabeth, opened Hapkido House in 2005.
