 |
|
Last week I got my advanced yellow (yellow with a black stripe all the way around) in shootfighting. We did all the grading requirements up to about green belt (just before black) I think, but what we were actually graded on for advanced yellow was holding ground while blocking continuous straight punches aimed at the head, which we had to do stationary, moving forwards to close the distance, and moving backwards. Then, knees from both front head control (the famous "Thai clinch") and outside head control, transitioning between both types of head control, pulling the guy around by his head to take him off balance and load up the knee, etc.
Not a demanding grading really, but I'm glad I passed
